One day when I was walking into the gym, someone called out that no one smiles while walking in there. I piped up with “ I like my trainer”. 
This is why:
She is knowledgeable and passionate about her own continued learning. 
She pushes you to try harder than you think you can. 
She is a positive cheering section when you develop a new skill, build on a technique or achieve a PR. 
She tells you to F$&KING FOCUS when you need too. 
Denise looks at my progression as her personal success and her genuine happiness in my continued improvements make it easy to want to train with her. She makes it fun and the hour flies by!! - Marilyn D.

"I know I am in good hands working with Denise. From our initial consultation she honed in and helped me articulate my specific fitness goals in a way that no trainer has been able to do or understand. In our sessions she is meticulously focused on technique and form and making sure the exercises I do are done correctly yielding results I can see and feel.  Her enthusiasm and passion for fitness is contagious, and working with her is inspiring me to have a lifelong practice of working out, to not only stay fit and look good, but to feel alive and vital!"

​I started working with Denise because of her phenomenal technique and impressive strength! Denise conducted a thorough consultation process which resulted in a harmonious client-trainer relationship. I valued this personal connection alongside strength training sessions because I felt safe sharing my thoughts and struggles on my fitness journey.  
During training sessions, Denise gave simple, yet precise instruction that DRAMATICALLY improved my form. Her instruction is transferrable to other strength and mobility drills, and my confidence improved because I understood the foundation of strength movements. 
In addition to fitness guidance, Denise provided advice that improved my daily life! Denise truly offers a holistic service to her clients, and this approach helped me unlock my potential. I LOVED working with Denise, and what I've gained is invaluable! Thank you! - Hannah L.

"Honestly, she's inspiring to me. I like working out with someone who has her strength because it feels realistic to me. She is super down to earth and encouraging."  - Holly A.

Denise brings all her experience to the zoom hour of training during this long pandemic. It is with joy and trepidation that I sign on to zoom— joy that I have this smart funny woman who is guiding me through a well thought out training hour - trepidation because she encourages me to train just that more harder and really push myself. Denise is an important anchor to my week and I know she is part of my health team moving forward. - Anita G.

Denise's training transformed my endurance, strength and mindset!  I had been a long-time boot camp advocate. After participating in Denise's training, my ability to participate in my hobbies, hiking, skiing, living daily with more strength and agility, wholly improved! Her can-do attitude and consistency in approaching her clients is one of a kind, always considering what each individual needs.
Thank you, Denise! I have never felt better! - Heather R.

As a 69 year old, with a full knee replacement, Denise has given me the confidence and support to reclaim my body's strength and flexibility with zoom training for the past year. Not only is my body physically stronger but my attitude towards training has developed more patience with a greater resolve to stay with it. Now my training has become part of my life and I am grateful to Denise for her knowledge, skill, and ability to make it fun. Thank you Denise. - Elaine O.

Denise just seems to know what you can manage and what you can achieve. - Pam S.

"Denise is a brilliant instructor and motivator who cares about her clients. Results guaranteed!! She is fun, focused, knowledgeable, experienced, passionate about fitness, and communicates effectively. I highly recommend Denise. She is beyond amazing!" - Gina

When we started our 8-women, twice a week Zoom workout group in April 2020, we had no idea we’d be hitting the mat with so much enthusiasm a year later. We’re fitter, stronger and still here because of our coach Denise! She has patiently and skillfully encouraged us to be our best selves, with empathy, humour and an eye on technique. With her keen attention and well-crafted classes, we each feel she’s our own personal trainer. Thank you Denise! Training with Denise has been life-changing personally! I’ve never felt so strong and fit. Denise’s approach is perfect for my age group - steady, thoughtful increasing challenge with great care and attention! Even on Zoom! - Gaye H.

As a personal trainer Denise is amazing. Being the first time doing exercise on zoom, it has been challenging. Denise spends time with each person, correcting posture and technique. Doing this exercise during covid has helped with a sense of well being and kept me exercising. It's so much fun and hard work doing it as a group. She also has good advice for working out muscle pain by doing trigger point ball work. Thank you Denise! - Michele B.

So grateful for our group ~ Denise has been an inspiring trainer and especially graceful teaching remotely during challenging times. From stretching and yawning to holding interminable planks, she’s been there for us as we build endurance and perfect our form. - Kim T.

 "She makes you feel strong on the inside!" - Kathryn H.
