Coach Mel is fantastic!

Sarah D.Apr 2025

Mel is fantastic! She was very understanding and supportive of my fitness goals and it completely transformed my self confidence, and the way I view fitness training! Her enthusiasm and encouragement meant the world to me, especially as someone who was just starting out! She is exactly what I hoped for in a trainer.

I have been working with Coach Mel on my fitness goals which include strength training, fat loss and nutrition. She has been instrumental in achieving this goals and I could not be happier. She is highly organized and is ready for each training session we have with multiple exercises that have precisely targeted the areas of my body I wanted to focus on. She is very motivating, inspiring snd knowledgeable and has turned out to be the highest level of accountability partner I could ask for. She has also helped me with nutrition and food choices. I am very pleased with my choice of personal trainers and highly recommend Coach Mel.

Mel is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable about her work...she did a great job of quickly assessing my 'starting point' both mentally and physically and has been able to provide perfect exercises to get started and then slowly progress to build up my stamina and flexibility and strength gradually...we communicate with one another often re: what is working and what isn't which makes the virtual nature of our relationship work so well! I highly recommend working with Mel if you need accountability and expertise to get you from where you are to where you want to be...regardless of where you are starting out in the process. I am definitely not a gym rat who just needed a new boost...and Mel knows how to help me go from sedentary to active and healthy!

I can't even express the gratitude for Coach Mel! If I could hire her year round I would. She was knowledgeable about my physical needs, having had double hip surgery, Sciatica, arthritis. She taught me movements that worked with my physical pain and she challenged me to move my body in ways I didn't think I could. You know your doing things well when your pushing yourself and showing the ugly face and Glace up to see Coach Mel's Evil 😈 grin 😁. Best paid trainer experience I've ever had!

I started training with Coach Mel 1 month ago, and I can barely believe the progress I've made because of Mel's training program. From the end of 2021 to the beginning of this year, I suffered from a series of mysterious intestinal health issues and hospital stays, had diagnostic laparoscopy which did not reveal any answers, and spent a week in the hospital from a routine procedure that caused severe pancreatitis and left me physically depleted and doubled over in posture for over a month. After starting pelvic floor physical therapy recommended by my surgeon to help retrain my muscles to support digestion, I decided to get some support with working out - I have always been a fairly active person, but a year of health problems had left me feeling like a stranger in my own body and muscularly weak and uncoordinated. My intake interview with Mel lasted an hour and a half and she asked every question and detail about my recent health struggles as well as my personal goals. She was so easy to talk to and patient as I expressed everything that had been going on with me, which was difficult because I had still not fully processed everything. Mel and I started working together twice I week, and after each session, I noticed my posture and the unevenness I was experiencing getting better. My digestion improved and my weak muscles looked toned and strong again. She had so perfectly developed a program tailored to my needs and it showed--not just to me but to others as well. Last week I saw my PT and she did an exam. She told me that she didn't need to see me again for a month because all of the muscles she was worried about appeared strong and coordinated and my digestive symptoms were exponentially better. So not only do I notice how well Mel's program has worked for my body and specific issues, but a medical professional confirmed that Coach Mel knows what she is doing!!! I would recommend Coach Mel to everybody looking for a trainer, but especially to those with specific physical issues or goals, as it has become clear that Mel is an absolute strategist and problem solver for those with physical issues to address!
