I worked with Melanie during my stay in Key West. I had been exercising but not using weights. Melanie helped me with several weight routines and helped me build confidence in using heavier weights. I loved that she focused on my form and was super encouraging. In just 6 sessions I felt stronger and more confident. She is a great trainer.

Well first I want to say thank you because it came with the mentality of just losing weight and making changes to my body, but during these 6 weeks I learned not only to get stronger physically, but mentally. I started to love exercising and making it part of my routine. I lost 12 pounds 💪🏻 I am physically stronger and all that thanks to your work and dedication. Thank you very much for teaching me how to manage my meals. That was a salvation since it is not tedious or hard. Many thanks for everything❤️

At 56, I’m just starting strength training after a very long absence of exercise. Melanie has been great to work with. She’s patient and very knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition. I had a couple issues starting out and she helped me adjust and keep going. Initially, I was reluctant to do anything because I was embarrassed about being so out of shape. Now I’m a little less out of shape and on my way to being a healthier me! Thanks Melanie!
