What my clients are saying…

  • "Rachel is a great personal trainer! I've had a few over the years and she is my favorite. She developed a consistent strengthening routine for me that I use still today. She made me stronger and more confident at the gym. Moreover, she's lovely to be around! I always looked forward to our sessions. "

  • "I met Rachel during the pandemic after a long long period of not exercising at all! She was so kind, supportive and helped me feel comfortable in the gym! She was very helpful in coming up with exercise routines that I could also do at home using just bodyweight, and was very helpful at correcting my form. She is also an interesting and kind person and it was easy to chat with her to take my mind off getting all sweaty. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trainer, especially shy beginners like myself!"

  • "I am so fortunate to have been matched with Rachel as my personal trainer at Park Fitness. I have been with her for over a year and a half. And my experience with her has truly been transformative. I came to her at the age of 61 with balance and coordination challenges and a core that needed major strengthening. Rachel believed in me from the get-go. We started at a basic level and built up incrementally to where I am now - dead lifting 140 lbs., hip thrusts at 235 pounds, just to name a few. Rachel's deep understanding of exercise and nutrition science, her deep familiarity with each individual client's needs and capabilities, her fantastic optimism, her desire to challenge and get you to the next level, her absolutely fabulous sense of humor (omigosh, she is so funny and clever!), her personal drive to be healthy and strong (role modeling for and encouraging women to have a similar outlook), her concern for your well-being are what make her absolutely a terrific trainer. What you learn from her you keep forever. What you gain from her you see in your body. What you feel is pride. Rachel is a trainer extraordinaire. I am beyond grateful to her expertise, drive, knowledge, professionalism, and gorgeous personality."

  • "Working with Rachel really helped me to take my health and wellness seriously, and to fight for that self-care time that I often put off. The coaching really taught me that it's okay to set boundaries around my time and to get what I want out of my life. Also, the habit stacking really helped me to set foundational habits such as drinking enough water and getting enough daily protein. Our training sessions also allows me to show up at the gym with a new type of confidence and knowledge of my form, equipment, and purpose!"
