I spent the last decade of my life dealing with chronic health conditions. I was well above a healthy weight and I was tired all the time. I blamed my thyroid condition and let depression consume me. I decided I needed a drastic change and with much reluctance I started my Google search. I came across many profiles before I found Sandy. I made a 3 month commitment to see what she had in store for me.

I knew if I got a trainer that gave me too much too fast, I would get overwhelmed and never come back. I hadn't worked out in years. I was embarrassed of how out of shape I was and was scared to make

Sandy is a wonderful trainer. She adjusts your workout to personalize it towards your own physical needs. She is compassionate, flexible and a joy to work with. During the pandemic, she seamlessly transitioned to virtual workouts which has allowed me to maintain my fitness and health. I highly recommend Sandy for all of your fitness and nutrition needs!

She provides life long skills that you can take and use in your daily life. Her passion for womens health is inspirational and so genuine. I adore Sandy and you will too!

Before I started working with Sandy, I had such low confidence in my ability to lose weight, or feel comfortable in my own skin. Each day was a cycle of negative self talk, putting myself down, and feeling anxious about all of my food choices. I was walking through life content enough in some areas, but not someone who was truly happy with myself. From the first phone call with Sandy, I knew this program would be different. She talked about my mindset, goals, and the approach she uses which addresses the bigger picture, rather than quick fixes. From there, I worked with Sandy for about a year

Sandy is the best thing that happened to me! She tailors my sessions to meet my specific needs. She clearly puts a lot of effort into designing the sessions which are full of variety and fun too. She makes every session challenging and has a thorough understanding of how the body works. She always ensures my technique is correct to avoid injury. She is flexible and has the ability to work around your schedule. Her knowledge, professionalism and passion for what she does is second to none. I highly recommend Sandy and her private gym!

I had a hard time getting excited about working out in the past. Sandy has really helped me get motivated and back into a healthy lifestyle. The Small Group Training sessions are the perfect size for me and reasonably priced. Thanks, Sandy!
