Meet Marcus Antelante | Businesses Owner and Professor

We had the good fortune of connecting with Marcus Antelante and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Marcus, looking back, what do you think was the most difficult decision you’ve had to make?
moving from my original country to try life here in the united states 10 years ago but thank God everything worked out

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
As I always say, it was a very difficult path until we managed to open our first business, nothing is easy when you don’t master the country’s language, when you don’t understand the country’s financial and political system, when you still don’t get the documents so that you can have a legal life in the country so this path was a lot of work, sweat and a lot of faith in God, we always believed that it would work, today our business helps dozens of people to have an active, healthy lifestyle, away from the sedentary lifestyles and with great physical and mental impact on their lives, I think this is the part that makes me the happiest.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
to start the day I would take him for brunch at a place that I really like which is the RH rooftoop in Dallas, we have many fun things to do here in the city, hundreds of options such as lakes, bars, clubs and much more.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to dedicate myself to all the people who helped me in the process of moving from Brazil to the USA 10 years ago and to my wife who was by my side all this time facing difficult obstacles every single day.
