IN THEIR WORDS..

WITH OVER 17 YEARS OF COACHING, DIRECTING AND ADVISING CLIENTS TO THEIR IDEAL HEALTH, THE RESULTS CAME FROM THEIR HARD WORK AND INTENTION.

“I initially signed up to work with Kirsten because I felt like I'd taken my health and fitness as far as I could on my own and was dealing with some persistent injuries and wanted to see if getting stronger would help remedy them. As we worked together, my goals shifted away from always doing more to doing what was actually best for my body. I feel stronger and healthier, and our work was pivotal for helping me create better habits in my life. I did not ever think this former ballerina and distance runner could lift the weights I'm lifting now. Working with Kirsten has been a huge gift and has given me peace of mind that I'm on the right track and given me guidance when interpreting science and trends. Kirsten is incredibly patient and eased me into making the necessary changes to reach my goals. She's shown me how making small changes over time makes a long term impact, and that's made the whole process of improving my health and wellness easier for me.The entire process of working with Kirsten has been so comprehensive, so thorough, and incredibly supportive. She is an expert in her field and cares deeply about getting her clients great results in a way that works for their lifestyle. Virtual training can work so well when you're working with the right person.”

~Ashley G. (Business Coach)

“I began working with Kirsten remotely to increase my fitness level and develop a sustainable, long-term healthy lifestyle. My expectations were absolutely met! My biggest takeaway was that daily exercise and healthy eating can easily fit into a busy and often hectic day with an easy to follow exercise routine. It was also very helpful to have a personalized program that accounted for physical limitations due to injuries with a plan for increasing flexibility along with strength and overall fitness. And I absolutely love her meal plans and recipes! My overall experience was awesome! At first I was really intimidated and worried I would have a difficult time sticking to a fitness program. However, after meeting Kirsten I immediately felt comfortable and confident... she is a true professional who's passion for health radiates from her! I had such a great experience and really look forward to resuming our work together again in the near future.”

~Melanie M. (Physician Assistant)

“I have been working with Kirsten for 5 years both in-person and virtually and she has tremendously improved the quality of my life and I now feel 10 years younger. I came to Kirsten initially to simply improve my fitness, lose weight, and feel better. She has met all expectations and then some. Kirsten knows my body better than I do: Without strain or pain, her guided exercises have substantially improved my strength, stability and flexibility. While most of her clients are younger, Kirsten is knowledgeable and caring about working with older clients and has achieved remarkable results for myself (76) and my wife (80). Not to mention, she is a very nice person and fun to work with.”

~Jay L. (Retired President of GE Japan)

“I have been working with Kirsten for 3 years. I wanted help with my aging body, which was arthritic, with a fused spine, two artificial knees and totally out of shape. She has toned me up, strengthened my legs, back and shoulders and has helped me rehabilitate after a knee replacement surgery. I could not walk without a cane or walker after my last knee replacement, and now I never use either around the house, and only a cane outdoors. She is always on my side, and her workouts seem to be perfect for me. I can walk a little better each week; I know how to handle muscle aches and pains, and she never pushes me beyond what I can handle. I'm looking forward to my 80th birthday next month and I feel so much younger than that. I think I can give you credit for that. If you are thinking about hiring Kirsten, I say "Go for it. It is so worth it." I am amazed by her patience, kindness, and professionalism.”

~Linda L. (Retired)

"Kirsten is a great trainer. Very motivating and inspiring to get me working on my goals and making it an enjoyable experience. She knows how to push you to your limits, but also reads you to know when to lighten up. She also provided phenomenal nutritional advice and services. I used her food delivery service and it was fabulous. I would recommend her to anyone looking for both nutritional and physical training."

~Amy J. (Teacher, Consultant, Social Entrepreneur, Philanthropist) 

“The experience of working with Kirsten has been therapeutic, tough, and transformative and has changed the way I view wellness as the whole. I was looking to start and MAINTAIN a healthier lifestyle long term and I’ve accomplished that. I now have a more holistic view of health - a view that suits me and my lifestyle. Kirsten helped me feel better in my own skin, helped me maintain the body I wanted, accept imperfections, and helped create mindfulness around all my lifestyle decisions (diet, sleep, exercise). If you’re looking to work with Kirsten, be willing to commit and maybe hear things you don't want to all the time. :)"

~Courtney A. (Consultant)

“I worked with Kirsten while on a business trip to Seattle and wanted to keep up my training when spending long hours in a conference center. In addition to staying active, I also wanted to get some new inspiration when engaging a new personal trainer. My expectations were absolutely met in many ways. Five stars! The training was fun and challenging and a skilled trainer can absolutely give important advice even though we only met three times. She provided different movements and different cues which made the training get to yet another level. Kirsten pinpointed my weakness in my right hip (known to me for many years but she had a completely different way of helping me be even more aware of this) and balanced heavy work with more flexibility in a very good way for me. Kirsten’s personality was so positive, gave me a lot of energy, and made me take good care of myself during my business trip. If you’re thinking about signing up, I would highly encourage you! I’m so sorry Seattle is so far away from me!”

~Anna L. (PhD and Research Scientist)
