Hi I work out with Lauri once a week. Each training session is fun with innovative exercises to provide a challenge each week. Lauri's knowledge, expertise, and motivation gives me confidence that I can meet my personal fitness goals. Lauri is fantastic to work with and I would highly recommend her as a personal trainer.

I have been working out with Laurie for several years and she is simply the best. She keeps updated on the latest science of
physical activity but more importantly she makes it fun and is motivating. As no two people are alike, she tailors the workouts
based on your body and also your lifestyle. It's nice to go to her studio but it's also nice to meet her and exercise outdoors. She
is very knowledgeable in nutrition and as part of her services, she will coach you on diet as well. Laurie has the unique ability to combine old school with new and is always changing it up to make it fun and interesting and best of all motivating. I really look forward to our workouts

I found Laurie when I needed to lose the baby weight and get into shape. She offered everything that I could ever ask for in a personal trainer and friend. She is so flexible about time and location, meeting at my place, the steepest hill near my house, her place, etc. Laurie was kind enough to come to my house during my kids nap time and help me get into the best shape of my life! She was an amazing motivator during my second pregnancy. She helped me stay in shape and keep the weight down, then lose 45 pounds after the 2 baby arrived in a matter of months. She continued to make every workout harder than the last one, but tweaked certain exercises so that even being 9 months pregnant, I could still break out a sweat and be challenged. There is no way that I could have done that on my own. I love the multitude of workouts that she has at her fingertips. TRX one day (amazing!), kick boxing, strength and cardio the next. At her home, she has all the fitness equipment ready to go to help you get the results that you want. When she comes to you, she brings everything that you will need for that workout. She also offers occasional weight loss contests between her clients, which is a fun and productive motivational tool. I have been working out with Laurie for 1 ½ years now, and don’t remember repeating any workouts unless I specifically asked for them. That alone is amazing!! Her workouts have always been challenging and fun. She is always interested in the next best workout tool, in order to expand her business and fitness interest. Hiring Laurie has been the best thing that I have ever done for myself. If you have any interest in doing something to improve your lifestyle and well-being, please consider hiring Laurie. You will not be disappointed!"
