Bucky Page
Fitness Instructor
An 8+ year United States Marine veteran, I proudly served as a radio operator and reconnaissance Marine at 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion in Japan. I’ve multiple deployments globally, including a combat deployment to Iraq in 2006. I am also a certified Marine Martial Arts instructor/trainer.
Transitioning into the civilian sector, I emerged as a healthcare entrepreneur, owning and operating a successful multi-state home health and hospice organization for 16 years – a chapter that recently concluded with the sale of the company in November 2023.
I'm now accepting new clients of all ages and backgrounds, drawing on my diverse experiences to guide individuals on their fitness journeys. I have been an active member of Diverge since 2009.
My wife (Mandy) and I have been married since 2004 and we love to cook, travel, boat ride and follow our son (Jacob) around on his college baseball journey.
