I loved the JFG program - no deprivation, real food, and super easy to follow. Since starting, I've lost about 25 pounds over the past year. I also feel great and have much more energy than before. Coleen was a great support system. She's really encouraging and knowledgeable and very down-to-earth - I felt really comfortable being completely open with her about my habits (good and bad) and she helped me not just physically but also with my emotional relationship with food and eating. She also worked with me and my schedule to make sure I got the most out of the program and our time together.

She's passionate about helping people reach their goals and understand the changes she recommends. No quackery, hunger, or deprivation. Food I like!

I've recommended her to my psychotherapy patients, too!

I've been doing Shamanic Energy Healing sessions with Arriale and this has been a new experience…read morefor me. I come from a very results-driven background--fitness, strength training, and nutrition--so I've always focused almost entirely on the physical side of health. The spiritual side is something I'm newer to, and I'm realizing it's probably been the missing piece of my puzzle. Arriale has been incredibly supportive, consistent and very intuitive throughout the process. She takes the time to listen, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. The results aren't always immediate or obvious especially for a results driven Type A, but I have noticed increased awareness, mental clarity, and a better understanding of certain patterns that may have been impacting my overall well-being for decades. I also appreciate that we're tracking biomarkers and connecting this work back to real health outcomes, which gives it more substance and satisfies my goal seeking persona. This isn't a quick fix--it's a different layer of the process. And for me, it's been a reminder that health isn't just physical.

Participating in the Sanctuary/Group Audit garnered a marked improvement in the quality of my life…read more My experience was confirming and validating. The two hours provided much more information than I could process at that time. In fact, the information seems to never stop flowing! The group atmosphere was warm and focused. My whole health is a priority. This was a natural progression in my self care. It was fun and the Bluebirds and Jay's tapped wildly on the glass. My gratitude is immense for Commander Arriale and The Alliance. Thank you!

I can't praise her enough really! Worth the investment to be a happier you!

After reading Taisha's reviews, I went and she turned out to be exactly what I needed during that critical transition back to fitness, (in her bright and airy studio). She is clearly highly Pilates trained and adept in reading her clients needs. She understood my goals while navigating my injury limitations. Almost two years later, I am grateful for those reviews that led me to Taisha. I do Club Pilates 4-5 times a week and Taisha once a week. I need Taisha's correct form vigilance or I would be injured in the class setting, as well as Taisha's variation workout. I sincerely value my physical fitness and personal relationship with Taisha. She is a beautiful person on the inside and outside. I was new to the area and feeling unfit. Thanks to Taisha, I am fit and at home.

Now, thanks to her, I have lost 30 lbs and kept it off for almost three years. The key to her excellent counseling is her patience, her one-on-one sessions, her ability to really listen to you, and her short and easy tips. She relies on simple solutions that you can easily adopt. I could not have been more pleased. Plus she's a really nice person, very caring. And she doesn't make you feel bad if you don't continually loss weight. Her goals are long-term and permanent, not a quick fix that you'll forget about as soon as you near your goal weight. If you want to permanently loss that weight, Carla is the one!! She's not cheap; you get what you pay for!!

I decided to get a personal trainer and see where that would take me. I work with her at Mount Vernon Barbell. Tiffany listened to me and my goals during our consultation, and immediately started a workout plan. I have gone from not knowing how to use a Barbell at all to being able to deadlift more than 100lbs. Additionally, she offers useful nutrition advice. No complicated or restrictive diets, just everyday tips that are easy to implement. I've lost about 10 pounds while still eating normal and tasty meals. I would recommend Tiffany to anyone who needs a companion in the journey that is fitness!

My first trainer helped me to lose the weight but I didn't gain muscle. The results were. I put the weight back on and more. Roovens has been helping me lose the weight while building muscle. For the first time in my life, I am actually seeing definition in my abs! In addition to that, I travel often, and usually put on 6 plus pounds for the food and drinks. This last trip i gained only 2lbs because I've gained muscle and that burns fast much faster than any diet ! I'm grateful to Roovens for supporting me along this journey. What sets him apart is his professionalism; he is incredibly consistent, reliable, and most importantly he actually listens. He tailored a program that respects my goals while pushing me to achieve results I couldn't get elsewhere. If you're looking for a transformation, look no further.
