Garba “Mister G” Onadja is one of California’s most sought-after personal trainers and transformation coaches. Known in Calabasas and beyond as a Personal Power Coach, Mister G has built a reputation for guiding clients to strength, discipline, and lasting results.
Born in West Africa, where survival wasn't theoretical—it was daily life. Raised in a culture rooted in nature, family, and personal responsibility, he grew up not with entitlement, but with purpose. As a child, he witnessed both the power and fragility of life. As a young man, he forged himself through martial arts, sports, and a code of inner discipline that would guide him far beyond his homeland.
Mister G first excelled as an all-around athlete, winning three national high school basketball championships and earning a place on the Niger National Taekwondo Team, where he achieved a Kukkiwon-certified Black Belt. His journey took him from Africa to France and ultimately to Los Angeles, where he became a premier fitness instructor and mentor.
Recognized early in his career as the “Most Motivational Instructor” by L.A. Daily News, Mister G went on to earn a 10th Dan Black Belt and induction into the U.S. Martial Arts Hall of Fame. He holds both a Business degree and a Doctorate in Oriental Philosophy and Martial Arts Science, combining practical expertise with scholarly depth.
His clientele includes Hollywood celebrities, business leaders, and high performers from every walk of life. In 2017, the U.S. Army awarded him the Medal of Excellence for inspiring service members during the launch of its “Year of Fitness.”
With The G Code, Mister G shares the philosophy and framework that shaped his own life—a guide to mastering discipline, unlocking resilience, and living with true power.
