I work from home and spent a lot of my time at my desk so my activity levels were at an all time low (aside from taking walks in between meetings). Every time I went to the gym in the past, it was with a friend and I would just chill at the cardio machines. After long bouts of body dysmorphia and bad eating habits, I came to Ivy knowing something had to change with my lifestyle and that I had no idea where to start in terms of using any kind of proper exercise techniques. When looking for a trainer, I was looking for someone who would push me and make sure the exercises weren't cookie cutter like the ones offered at most big gyms. From Ivy's past reviews I knew she was the one (personable, cares about her clients, invested in long term lifestyle improvements). Ivy is empathetic and encouraging no matter your level and will push you to ensure you are getting the most out of your sessions. Her programming is diverse and aligns with your personal goals (which you go over in the first consultation call). I did the group sessions and Ivy always makes sure the vibes are uplifting and motivating (awesome playlists btw - also loved the workout groups)! I was already seeing results by the end of the first month, already learned how to properly deadlift and squat and understood which muscles had to be worked on with certain exercises. Ivy will go over exercises with patience and understanding and even breaks down steps further if you are struggling. Working out with Ivy was the highlight of my week and I looked forward to every session. I can now lift heavy things I couldn't carry before and my stamina is improving every week. My only regret was not starting with her sooner! I went from running the other way with the idea of the gym to loving exercise (not to mention my mental health is on an all time high since starting four months ago). I've learned to love my body and love sweating it out at the gym. The first day I stepped into a public gym by myself, I was able to approach the squat racks without embarrassing myself! I cannot emphasize how amazing she is through this essay alone so definitely call her for a consultation and see for yourself ;) read more

My husband and I trained with Ivy 2x per week for three months, and we can honestly say she exceeded every expectation. We came in with different fitness levels and goals, and Ivy met us exactly where we were - she designed personalized workouts that challenged us both without ever feeling out of reach. Each session was thoughtful, well-structured, and never repetitive. She kept things interesting by constantly mixing up the exercises, and she was always quick to tweak things on the spot based on how we were feeling that day. Whether it was strength training, mobility work, or endurance, Ivy knew exactly how to push us. On top of being an incredibly skilled trainer, Ivy is warm, professional, and just a joy to spend time with. We genuinely looked forward to our workouts and always left feeling a little prouder of ourselves! She's able to push you with just the right mix of intensity, humor, and encouragement. Highly, highly recommend Ivy to anyone looking for a trainer, whether you're getting back into fitness or want to level up!! read more

Coach Ivy is one of the most genuine, fun, energetic human beings you'll ever meet. If you want to be trained by someone who will motivate you, give you a personalized experience, and make time for you, look no further. Ivy is booked out for a reason- She gives people a transformative workout that will help you reach whatever goals you may have. She really takes the time to listen, assess your needs, and make a plan that will work out with your schedule. She has years of knowledge and fitness experience under her belt. Despite only seeing her a few times a week, I've already made a huge amount of progress on my lifting and my body composition. It's always intimidating stepping foot into a foreign gym where you don't know the people or how to use the equipment. Ivy makes this process so much easier and less intimidating- I felt so comfortable with her! I highly recommend Ivy if you're looking for trainer who knowledgable and will help you throughout your fitness journey every step of the way. read more

Ivy is such an exceptional trainer! I recently moved from the Midwest to the Bay Area so I was going through some lows. However, once I started training with Ivy, I felt more motivated, stronger, and develop a healthier relationship with my body (which feels amazing since I suffer from body dysmorphia for years). Ivy is kind and understanding at whatever level you are starting at (in my case, beginner level :-) ). She always demonstrates exercises and ensures you that you are doing them properly. Overall, her training sessions are so fun (even at 6 am); I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to make healthier long-term life changes or goals. read more

Ivy ivy ivy, well what can I say... when I started with Ivy I didn't quite know what to expect. First off my athletic abilities have diminished to practically nothing. When Ivy asked what my goals were one of them was to be stronger. Well fast forward two months and boy do I not only feel strong, I AM strong!!! For years my gym buddy Dawn and I felt lost at the gym and gravitated toward the cardio machines, intimidated by weightlifting. Fast forward to covid and we would go on hikes. We felt the need to do more and to get stronger. That's when I looked into hiring us a trainer. I compared trainers online which I know isn't the best judge of a trainer's abilities however I kept coming back to Ivy. I told my buddy and we went with her. Best decision I've made. Ivy pushes us more than what we think we are capable of doing. And I must say in the beginning I was hangry, pretty much a complete bitch. I was detoxing from sugar, carbs and unhealthy fat. Poor thing I'm so glad I did not scare her off. Thank you Ivy for improving our lives! read more

If you are looking for a fitness coach you found her, Ivy is amazing. I'm over 55 years old and I am training with Ivy's group 3 days a week everybody in the group is friendly and encouraging. Ivy has been training me for about over one year and I haven't felt this fit in a longtime. Ivy is very encouraging, uplifting, and all around great trainer. She always ensures that my technique/form is correct to get the most out my lift and avoid any injuries or bad habits. Ivy is conscious during my workouts on how much to lift and change to a variation if needed. The workouts are varied so it never gets boring. Since training with Ivy, I have gotten much stronger along with becoming more flexible. My physique and overall fitness have noticeably improved I truly enjoy and look forward to my training. I highly recommend Ivy to anyone looking to improve their fitness overall health with a dedicated trainer. Invest in yourself train with Ivy to be your best self. Thanks Ivy! read more

Ivy has done such a great job training me to be stronger physically (and mentally). When training with her, she always pays attention to how I'm progressing and feeling to best accommodate my needs while pushing me to achieve and exceed my goals. I definitely recommend anybody in search for a trainer to hit up Ivy since she always takes care of her clients! read more

Ivy has been the best thing that has happened for me in 2020! I've always been a cardio (which I absolutely hate) person at the gym and didn't have any knowledge in strength training. I've always wanted to get stronger but didn't have the right knowledge on doing so. My job is pretty sedentary and I had an urge wanting to move more and get stronger. I started searching on Yelp for a personal trainer that could help me reach my goals and that's when I came across Ivy. I met with her back in February and we discussed about what my goals were. Her super chill welcoming personality made me realize how comfortable I would be with her! Unfortunately, I was only able to train with her twice in person before COVID hit. However, Ivy reached out to me during shelter in place offering to train me via Zoom on a donation based. She understood that people weren't working at the time but still made it a priority to try to help since SIP really took a toll physically and mentally. When gyms were finally able to open up again, I felt like I have definitely become stronger thanks to all the Zoom workouts! I appreciate Ivy so much for everything she has done for me. In the short time that I have known Ivy, not only is she a trainer, but she has become a friend that helps push me to be the best version of myself. I have a pretty crazy work schedule and she always tries to work around it. I look forward to our workouts every time and have noticed a change in my body. I feel good and look good! I can't wait to see how I continue to progress. Please look no further. Ivy is the best! read more

I have been training with Ivy since Oct 2018 and my only regret is that I did not find her earlier. She has helped me explore new levels of strength and conditioning. Training sessions with her are fun and the rotation of workouts keeps it interesting . She certainly helps you build a healthy relationship with food. And yes like another reviewer mentioned she is certainly no drill sergeant but will NOT let you slack off either. If you do decide to train with Ivy, it is the best thing you can do for your fitness journey. read more

Ivy is amazing. I only went to hear for a few months because I travel too much to see her but she put me in the right path health and fitness wise. Previously I was just doing a bunch of cardio classes avoiding any sort of strength training in fear of getting "too bulky" as most women think. But once I started learning the benefits of strength training and how useless the number on a scale is, it was definitely a game changer. Thank you for changing my life for the better. Any PT who helps you reach your goals and keep a good relationship with food is the perfect trainer. THANK YOU IVY! read more

2020 lead me to some new lows and one of them was my overall mental/physical health. Looking for some changes, I came across Ivy after browsing online. Training with her has hands down been one of the highlights of this difficult past year. I have always been into being active but never had formal training on proper lifting form (turns out I was doing a bunch of movements wrong). Ivy helped me get better at said movements and is patient with my progress. She always offers suggestions and gives corrections to make sure they are being done correctly/safely. I have been at it for about 3 months and I am very happy with where I've gotten so far! I feel stronger and more energized throughout my day. This progress has also translated into my mental health, as I feel more confident with myself and am also making better nutritional choices to match this new lifestyle (gainzzzz). She is very knowledgeable and professional in her work and helps me tap into my true potential, as I can sometimes undermine my ability. She is a great leader to our training group and really helps build a safe, encouraging, and energetic vibe (pure heat on her music playlists), even if our trainings are in the early hours before sunrise. I honestly look forward to training every week and am excited to continue this fitness journey with Ivy's guidance. I recommend her 100%! read more

I've been training with Ivy for a little over a year now. I decided to check her out based on her Yelp reviews. When I came a year ago, I was struggling HARD with my depression and anxiety. My mom had just gotten married and I saw the photos after the wedding and didn't even recognize myself. I was sad to even look at myself. I surfed through Ivy's website, trying to figure out if it would be a good fit for me. I had never worked out consistently in my life, much less had a trainer, or went to a gym. Some places seemed too intense, too busy, too pricy, and some trainers came off too strong. I knew Ivy was the right fit when her website said "Train because you love your body, not because you hate it" or something along those lines. I was like... GIRL, SAME. I wanted to love my body and I did not. When I started working out with her, IT WAS A STRUGGLE. 6 am workouts, sometimes I would cancel, I wouldn't sleep or ate like shit or even ate nothing sometimes. High-key took her for granted. It's taken me a little over a year to become more consistent, show up on time, and even mildly -- possibly look forward to my workouts (first time I'm admitting it and I'll deny it later) Ivy always stayed by my side, encouraging me with kindness and sometimes with some tough love but she always did. I don't have amazing before and after pictures of my physical appearance but I can tell you that I feel better about myself every single day. I smile when my muscle moves when I flex and I feel like a bad bitch when I lift heavy. The physical will come, but my mentality had to come first. read more

Ivy is the best!! She's has a very honest & genuine attitude. I've already recommended her to a friend of mine who now also trains with her as well. I've done personal, partner, and group training with her & I loved them all! Highly recommend her to anyone looking to start weight training regardless of whether or not you've lifted in the past or never touched weights. read more

I started training with Ivy thanks to her amazing Yelp reviews, and she definitely lives up to all the praise. We started with goals and a preliminary body scan (which is was not a cute look for me ). We were able to figure out a plan which would work best for my specific body type, which I expected to be a bunch of cardio. Instead, we took a gradual approach to weight lifting - something I never thought I would ever be capable of. Ivy could tell based on my stretching and movement, that my mobility needed tons of work (which in turn would help my workouts). In addition to workouts, Ivy helped me with my nutrition! Our progress got cut a little short due to Covid-19, but we figured out a way to train over Zoom! Whether you train over Zoom or physically distant at a park, Ivy is an amazing, honest trainer and an incredible human read more

Been training with Ivy for some time now, it's tough for me at times, being so out of shape. Training with Ivy has actually improved a lot in my life, not being so short of breath for even doing the smallest task. I'm a Diabetic, since training with Ivy my blood sugar levels have been great, my doctor is so impressed. Do not underestimate being a petite young lady, she can work you hard, but does realize what your limits are. read more

I never thought I'd look forward to working out until I started working out with Ivy. I really can't say enough good things about her! I started with Ivy when I plateaued both mentally and physically. I wasn't sure if investing in a personal trainer would actually help me reach my goals. These past three months working with Ivy has proved to me without a doubt that I made the right choice. I've become so much stronger, I've learned how to properly work out, and I've become happier, more positive, and more energetic. I've had coaches and trainers my entire life, but I've never felt as comfortable and supported by them as I have with Ivy as my trainer. She's professional, kind, extremely knowledgeable, and she always goes the extra mile! I injured myself early on in our training (no fault of hers) and she immediately changed up our fitness plan, communicated with me to make sure I was okay during our workouts, and even checked up on me during the week via text to offer more stretches, support, and advice. Even before my injury, Ivy always stressed working out safely and effectively and I always feel safe even when I'm lifting heavier than I would on my own! If you're on the fence, don't be. Ivy's a total pro and a fantastic motivator. I'm so glad I found Ivy and could not recommend her more to anyone regardless of fitness level! read more

I've worked with Ivy for about two years now and greatly admire her as a person and trainer. Some things that I really appreciate about her are: -she is flexible w scheduling around my inconsistent work schedule -she is focused on my goals for myself around feeling healthy and energized rather than certain numbers on a scale or measurements -she believes in healthy moderation and variety w food and a healthy relationship w food vs some trainers that are crazy about diet diet diet -she provides me with customized workouts to do on my own -she's helped me feel more confident by just in how I look but also in what my body is capable of -she motivates me on days that I am having a hard time motivating myself but is never a drill sergeant about it -she keeps me stimulated with different routines and work out plans -she pays attention to the details of form to make sure I'm not going to injure myself and im getting the most out of an exercise -she is knowledgeable of physiology and incorporates that into work outs and warm ups and stretches -she is easy to talk w about life's up and and downs -when I injured myself playing soccer, she has taken extra time to show me ways to rehab -she is way more affordable than personal training at the bigger gyms read more

I am so glad I found Ivy when I was looking for a trainer so I could get back to working out. Ivy has helped me find a great balance on my relationship with the gym and food. Work outs with Ivy are fun and challenging. I used to be the person that would always hate going to the gym but through Ivy's help, I now wake up at 6 am looking forward to going to my workouts with her. What's great about Ivy is that its not just about the workouts, she also teaches you a lot about food and what works the best for your body. Every body type is different and hence reacts to different foods and workouts differently; through Ivy's guidance I have been able to figure out things that work the best for my body and health and yet enjoy my life and indulge occasionally. read more

I was going through a rut since I haven't been active in so many years, but I found Ivy and decided to give her a try! I really like that she is a genuine and personable person that cares about her clients and makes sure not to push you past your limits. I've never had a personal trainer but Ivy has definitely set the bar! She customized a workout plan for me and sent me nutrition guides as well. During our first month I didn't see the results I wanted (granted, we did do our measurements after Thanksgiving lol) but I will definitely keep at her workout plan! One thing I definitely love about Ivy is that every session we have is different! We don't do the same workouts everytime, which is great. She also is very patient and always gives encouragement. I definitely recommend Ivy if you're looking for a trainer! read more

I have never met such a beautiful soul! Ivy has push me beyond my imagination and I am thankful to be training with her. From the start of my journey, it seems like doing a proper push up seem impossible however 5 months later not only I am doing push ups but also squatting 185lbs! Ivy is the kind of person you would like to have by your side when you start your weight lose journey because she is not only a trainer but a mentor and a beast! read more

Ivy is an absolutely AMAZING trainer. I have loved working with her and I'm actually excited to go to our sessions. Since working with her, I have a much better relationship with my body and the gym. I was so intimidated to go to the gym before because I wasn't sure what I was doing, and I was afraid to look like I didn't know what I was doing. Ivy really teaches you the proper way to use the equipment and the different ways it can be used, so you feel confident in your workouts. She's also taught me to measure my progress differently and focus on how I feel rather than just using a scale. We've focused on my strength and my overall health, which has made me feel better and way more confident. She helped me with my diet as well, focusing on healthy options and balance, which fit my overall goals. Ivy has become such a good friend and she's so easy to talk to. I always feel comfortable around her and I appreciate how invested she is in my progress and just my life in general. She's really become more than just my personal trainer and it makes all the difference. read more

Ivy is a very patient, professional, creative trainer. We have already worked together for one year, and she is always hardworking and energetic. I am overweight and heavy low back pain, so firstly I don't think I could lift weight at all. But after I found her by searching on yelp and tried for the first time, it is hard, but Ivy encourages me a lot and gave me some detail introduction of training. Even training is not always happy, Ivy will change our training plan due to my condition which really helped. In my mind, during the past one year, I changed a lot on the life style, my body shape, my spirit, what's more, I practice English a lot because she is a quite good communicator:) read more

I have been receiving Ivy's training for almost 2 months, and I am satisfied with my progress. 1) Ivy has a training plan for each session, and the plan is specific for me. I am a programmer so my neck and shoulder are easily tired. I always sit for long time, so my legs are weak. Ivy set the plan to emphasize the body part that needs more exercise. 2) She is professional. Her direction is clear and easily to understand. She makes sure that my body form is correct during work out, and the exercise won't hurt my body. She makes sure I got enough stretch before and after each session. 3) She always encourages me to do more. At beginning, my target is losing some weight, but after several sessions, I cannot wait to see how heavy I can lift, and how strong my body can be. I think it is a healthier attitude, and I have seen my better body shape now! read more

I spent several months with Ivy to work out for my shape building until I have to leave USA. This is probably my most unforgettable experience on my way finding a better self. Ivy is very friendly but strict. She taught me how to use many machines, how to do a perfect motion and how to stretch as well. It's very worth for everyone to get a class from Ivy and you will never regret that. read more

I can't say enough good things about Ivy! I was in search of a trainer to help me get healthy and was definitely the beginner of all beginners! I was so nervous and intimidated about going to the gym because of my weight but after our first meeting, I knew she would be the best person to help me. She is super knowledgeable and easy to be around. She takes the time to explain and demonstrate the right way to do things and modifies any exercise needed. She is no bs but also super approachable and is always encouraging. I still have a long way to go, but I already feel so much more comfortable and confident that I will get there. I would recommend her to anyone looking to invest in a personal trainer. Worth every penny! read more

I have been training with ivy for a few months now. She is the best trainer I have worked with. I was completely out of shape since a few years. Ivy has completely changed my attitude towards training. She helped me get comfortable with the Gym. Now, I can handle free weights and other equipment in the gym on my own. She helped guide my nutrition, with personalized plan. Nowadays, I look forward to train almost every day (I train by myself as well with Ivy). It's amazing that going to the gym, which used to be such a chore, is now the best part of the day for myself. Ivy is tough trainer. She pushes you for the best. She also taught me how to warm up and stretch properly, which is a big deal for me - since I used to frequently manage to hurt myself in the gym earlier! After an hour of training - I come out feeling that I have done something amazing for myself. Ivy created a personalized training plan for myself and changes is when I am ready to move to the next level. I am in my 40s, and in the best shape of my life now - all thanks to Ivy's training. read more

I trained with Ivy for about 5 months, and it was the most transformative experience (not just physically). Coming into training, I let her know that I wanted to just feel good again since I was not pleased with how I viewed my body. My goal was very subjective and Ivy likes to see concrete results, but she was incredibly patient and is willing to work with you to reach your goals. She's attentive, straightforward, hard working (the attitude of if you work hard, I'll work hard with you). When I was ready to reframe my training focus on losing weight and building strength, she took the time to educate me in foods, how bodies are built, what nutrients to keep track of, etc. I liked to ask questions, and Ivy answered almost all of them. If she didn't know, she's the type of person to mull over it and get back to you. Now, every time I'm back home in SJ, I'll hit her up to see if she has availability and would resume to training whenever I can. By the way, she's also a dope DJ. Inquire about her events and mixes, especially to workout. read more

Probably the best decision I made was to work with Ivy. I love how understanding she is & how she pushes you to be better. I love her approach on workouts. She gives you a meal plan & workout plan throughout your week. Though I only saw her once a week still killed it! She's really different from most of the personal trainers I've met. She loves what she does & she's good at what she does as a trainer. You can see how passionate she is to help you out & that is very rare. She will help you the best she can. One month working with her we both saw changes! No weight loss but when we took pictures we saw the changes (fat loss ftw). Both of us were shocked! She's the best & you won't regret it!Look no more (seriously, real talk). read more

I am someone who has spent many a $ on gym memberships and personal training, and still walked away with little gained in strength or knowledge. Having had enough of the commercial gyms, I started training with Ivy after seeing the glowing reviews on Yelp, and have not regretted that decision for even a moment in the year that I have been training with her - at the gym and via Zoom. Btw, I am an enthusiastic but VERY undisciplined person - every trainer's nightmare! Ivy has figured that out about me, and does everything she can to keep me on a consistent schedule. She has taught me to use what I have to get a good workout, and helped me understand different foundational movements, the right form, and now weights are no longer intimidating! She helps me set tangible goals that I WANT to work towards. I respect my body more now, and want to train my body to be able to do more. It's all thanks to Ivy, and I will continue to work with her! Highly highly recommend!! read more

I first trained with Ivy when she was working at 24HR fitness years ago & only did a few sessions. And even after that time period, she taught me so much about my form & what I was doing to help better the way I was lifting. Long story short, since then I've been on and off with the gym & have had a love hate relationship with being consistent. I decided 2020 would be the year that I finally give up any excuse & do what I need to do to reach not only my full potential, but work towards my goal in being stronger. Covid hit & then when gyms opened back up, I felt like I reached a plateau and needed a new environment. I was searching up different gyms on yelp & came across Ivy. It was definitely a sign that I found her again now with her own business as a trainer. I've been wanting to seek out a personal trainer for a while to help guide me. I've been training with her for almost a month now, seeing her 3 times a week and she has helped me so much already. I definitely feel like I'm getting stronger & more confident with my workouts at the gym. She helps push me in ways that I would get out of my comfort zone. I love that she will try her best to correct me if I'm doing something wrong in my exercises. I'm not a morning person at all, but I found to actually enjoy her 6am workouts. She has helped motivate me to see the potential in me that I didn't think I could even see for myself. I cannot wait to see the progress I continue to make with her guidance. I one hundred percent would recommend her & would give her 20 stars if I could. I appreciate you Ivy & thank you for helping me build the confidence I never thought I'd have for fitness. You are worth every penny! read more

Very good trainer!! I've taken the training from her for nearly a year and still decide to keep it. She'll help you build a healthier life and also she is a nice girl would be a good friend also. :) read more

I've gotten trained by ivy a couple times already and she kicks my ass every time!! I'm so sore the next day every time I train with her. She lets me rest when I need to but still pushes me to my fullest potential. You can tell she's been doing this for years. 10/10 recommend! Worth every penny!! read more

I have known Ivy for a couple years and I've seen her grow into the person she is now, from start to finish. I've asked her a couple times about how to tone my body, lose weight, work out plans, etc and she's been very detailed on everything I needed to know about my body and what I needed to do. She's been amazing overall and I think anyone who wants to lean out, make a change in themselves and be healthy, come to Ivy! She knows her sh*t! read more

I've had 3 personal trainers throughout my fitness journey and ivy is by far the best. She offers amazing customer service and flexibility to accommodate your schedule. As a full time college student and full time worker, working out with ivy gives me the motivation and encouragement to get a workout in after or before a busy day. Her workout sessions are customized to meet the goals, mobility, and strength of each of her clients. She also makes it a point to get to know you as an individual allowing a relationship and a great amount of comfort during your sessions. IVY WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU AND WILL HELP YOU REACH YOUR GOALS. Thanks to her sessions, meal plan, and personal workout plan I am 7lbs down in 2 weeks. read more

I'm so happy to be able to work with Ivy. Ivy is really an amazing trainer and very sweet person. She is truly the best. She motivates me and teach me to be consistent. Everything is possible with hard work and consistency. I used to "hate" lifting weight but now because of Ivy, I love it so much. I feel like something is missing when I didn't exercise or lifting weights. I feel like I enjoy it so much now. Not just because trying to lose weight but I'm also enjoying it. She helped me to love and how to enjoy workout. She cares about her client and make sure that you can achieve your goal. Thank you so much Ivy! read more

I trained with Ivy for a month and the only thing I regret is not coming to her sooner. This was my first time with a personal trainer and I'm glad I was able to train with her. As a person who doesn't like to workout or is typically motivated, she definitely helped me find an interest to work out and enjoy it. With in that month I forsure saw progress and I wish I had more time to train with her. Overall this is one of the best workout experiences and I highly recommend going to her if you're looking for a personal trainer and starting a fitness journey. read more

When I was in search for a personal trainer, I couldn't be any happier that I came across Ivy. Ivy is truly an amazing trainer that will make sure you achieve your fitness goals. I first contacted Ivy through her awesome website for a consultation, she was quick to respond and set up a meeting. After talking with her and answering all my questions, I knew I wanted to start immediately. She is very down to earth, personable, and passionate about her training with her clients. Ivy is a trainer that truly cares about your goals. My experience with the gym was usually with cardio machines and not much with weights. The free weights and benches intimidated me and I honestly did not know where to start. During our personal training sessions, I learn new workout exercises and she definitely makes she the form is correct to prevent any type of injury. She always brings a killer work out, but that's what it takes! She motivates without being mean or pushy, she makes sure you get it done! She is a sweet, smart woman and I genuinely enjoy my time with her. If you're looking for an awesome personal trainer that truly cares about your goals, whether that be strength training, losing weight, nutritional advice/meal plans, or just looking to build confidence, Ivy is the perfect trainer to help you reach your goals. Please don't hesitate to reach out to her and start working towards a better version of yourself! read more

I've been going to Ivy for almost a year now and she has been wonderful. My main goal was to get stronger and I have definitely achieved it. I started out not knowing how to do anything except jogging. Now I can deadlift more than my own weight. Her focus isn't only on my workout but also on my mental health too. My job can get pretty stressful sometimes and Ivy understands that. She gets it when I cancel last minute because I'm tired or I'm having a rough day. Sometimes I'm too tired or anxious to go to the gym on my own, so she incorporates a whole body workout into our session. She doesn't shame me for it; she tries to be understanding which makes it so easy to keep coming back to our sessions. She'll push me but she is willing listen too which is important. Ivy is a great trainer. She honestly acts like your caring friend that wants the best for you. I have self esteem issues and Ivy always reminds me that I should be confident in myself. We had one session where Ivy and I sat down for a deep conversation and talked about things that were bothering me and what I was struggling with. She truly cares and I think that's hard to find especially in a trainer. I for sure recommend her to everyone. I've seen her train younger people and I've seen her train older folks. She does it all! read more

I have been working with Ivy for almost two months now. I injured my ankle few years ago and have been going to physical therapy ever since but nothing was working. My doctor recommended looking into strength & conditioning training and I came across Ivy on Yelp. I was an absolute beginner and not active when it came to my health. We went over my goals before the starting and then she made workout plans taking into consideration my ankle condition and goals. I love how patient she is during our sessions. She motivates you to push your limits just the right amount. She is also very knowledgeable and is always explaining what muscles & why we are doing this exercise. She does not dictate rather works alongside with your needs. I was a bit hesitant to spend money on a personal trainer but I have to admit it is the best decision I have made. I even feel happier. My ankle is getting stronger and I am going to continue working with her until it is all healed. I also lost 10 pounds for far. She is outstanding and I am glad I choose her. She is genuinely humble and makes you feel very welcomed at the gym. She is definitely someone you want to consider if you are a beginner like me! You will not be disappointed. read more
