TESTIMONIALS
Tenya Coleman (December 2020)
Christina is an exceptional trainer. I started working with her in 2019, in preparation for my 50th birthday. Her process is simple and effective, be aware of your calorie intake, the quality of the food you eat and rev up your cardio and strength training. She stressed that small changes can make a huge difference if done consistently, which I witnessed first-hand.
Christina, she cares about you as a person and a client. I recently broke my ankle, and for 6 weeks I could not work out, but Christina checked on me and encouraged me not to rush the healing process. Once I recovered enough, we resumed with virtual training sessions.
I thoroughly enjoy and have benefited from training with Christina before COVID and now virtually. I recommend her to anyone who wants to take charge of their fitness goals.
Christian Gray (December 2020)
I’ve been training with Christina for a while now and our workouts are both varied and rewarding. I’m seeing results in my body and in my overall fitness. I am excited to be on this fitness journey with Christina!
Connie Shepherd (December 2020)
I have been working with Christina for over a year. She has been instrumental in creating a great workout every time we meet. She tailors my experience to work all the muscles that compliment what I worked on during my day. We meet on Zoom weekly. I have hand weights, a resistant tube and a BOSU ball. During my workout, she makes that equipment feel like a trip to the gym.
