What I appreciate the most about Allyson is that she fosters a vocabulary of "I can" and "I will," and shows you that it is only within this context that you see and begin to achieve what you are truly capable of. When you work with Allyson, you learn that change is possible -- but you must be willing to "dig deep" and work outside of what is comfortable and familiar.

From the first time I sat down with Allyson to review what my personal goals I knew that she would inspire and push me beyond my limits. She has done just that and the one on one weekly workout sessions in her studio have made me stronger and brought more energy to my life. Her knowledge of tailoring workouts and keeping them challenging has been my favorite part of working out.

Allyson has been my personal trainer for four months now. I always look forward to my time with her as Allyson plans diverse, challenging yet achievable workouts. Allyson puts a lot of thought into planning my workout sessions, having always prepared a "lesson plan" in advance. Allyson plans workouts that suit my body type, and I feel that I am developing better muscle tone without the bulk, in addition to working off the extra pounds. Allyson's energy and enthusiasm are contagious and I truly enjoy training with her.

Allyson knows how to push me to work a little bit harder each time. I can hold plank longer, lift more weight, squat a bit deeper and do one more rep each time I work with her. She has taught me the invaluable lesson of how to push myself and keep myself accountable, because I am doing the hard work! And it has paid off - I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight and clothes but more importantly, I feel really strong and fit. I look forward to the muscle soreness I get after a workout with Allyson... its not painful, but you know you did something good for your body!

Allyson is very dedicated to her clients and pushes them further then one thinks they can go. I have been working out with Allyson for over the last year and am always impressed with her enthusiasm and motivation each week. I have not worked out with a personal trainer prior to Allyson but have spoke to plenty of people who have had trainers in the past - most have said they are not challenged enough but I can guarantee that Allyson's programs she puts together will not only be challenging but fun at the same time. I look forward to our weekly workout session as I know she will be well prepared and that I need to go in mentally ready for a challenge.

The thought of working with a personal trainer was intimidating at first, but once I started training with Allyson I became comfortable being around weights and have learned how to properly stretch after a workout. Allyson's enthusiasm for her work is infectious, and an absolute asset to my training and lifestyle choices.
