    paper Acero - Realise your potential

    ACERO was founded by celebrity trainer, Jono Castano and CEO, Amy Castano. The film challenges the notion of a regular gym and what it means to feel strong, mentally, and physically. There is a quietness about this film, capturing moments that are louder than words. After all, the greatest risk we will ever take is to be seen as we truly are.
