  • "It's Easy to Stay Consistent"

    “I wanted to start training sessions but wasn't sure where to begin, which initially held me back. However, from the start of my journey to where I am now, I've learned so much. Being able to share my preferences and having guidance every step of the way has made it easy to stay consistent. My goal was to focus on how I felt rather than how I looked, and the way we've tailored my program has made me increasingly look forward to each workout.” - Personal Training Client

    ★★★★★

  • "I Don't Dread Working Out"

    “I don't dread working out, I see it as an outlet instead of a chore. I'm learning so much about my body and strength training in general. And having Mel as my cheerleader, I've gotten back to being able to do planks and sit ups, and I actually enjoy it when I do it. Mel's approach to training feels one of a kind, there in sincerity in her approach, and to have someone in your corner full heartedly working with you without judgement allowed me to push myself, push my body, in ways I haven't before and I've had nothing but positive experiences since.” - Personal Training Client

    ★★★★★

  • "I've Been Able to Surpass My Own Expectations"

    “Before starting my journey, I was completely lost and didn't have much motivation to challenge myself physically. With the guidance of Mel, I've been able to surpass my own expectations - doing exercises with confidence and now working with weights that would have initially scared me. Over the past few months, I feel more confident with myself during our sessions, and know when I should be pushing myself to achieving new goals. Mentally and physically, I've had the most positive changes and it's apparent through my day-to-day life.” - Personal Training Client

    ★★★★★

  • "I Definitely Feel a Positive Change and Outlook"

    “I've just really had a good experience for the past couple months and couldn't be happier with how the training sessions have helped my overall lifestyle on a daily. Being able to implement these 50 minute sessions 3x a week, has made other parts of my life to be more organised and health wise I definitely feel a positive change and outlook.” - Personal Training Client

    ★★★★★

  • "Better Sleep, Energy & Stress-Relief"

    “I feel better mentally and physically - I am sleeping better, feeling more energized and less stressed.” - Personal Training Client

    ★★★★★

  • "I Feel Better Walking Into the Gym"

    “I feel stronger and more capable to show up for myself. I can see that I am able to lift more and feel more agile in my body! My mental health has also improved which I love. I have always felt lost in the gym and with Mel, she always explains how to use the machines as well as a visual example (which is so crucial for me) I feel better walking into the gym knowing that I won’t feel like a lost puppy.” - Personal Training Client
