I know I need to work out regularly if I'm going to be mobile in my (fast approaching) old age, but I also know that as that old age approaches, I run more risk of injury. I work with Mary Jo because she combines the ability to help me stay fit while keeping me from hurting myself through poor form, too much weight, or other mistakes. (Candy O., age 58)
In recent years, Mary Jo has been our personal trainer. We have certainly benefited from her expert assistance and give her a very positive and high recommendation. Mary Jo's positive and encouraging personality makes each strenuous workout a healthy and pleasant experience that we look forward to! She has been a big help to us. (Terrell and Neva S. ages 77)
M. J. is wonderful with my son, 13. He loves coming each week. There has been a huge increase in his stamina & he’s making more rapid progress in Tae Kwon Do. (Margaret N., mother of Tommy)
I enjoy coming to Mary Jo & working out. I love the variety of exercises & enjoy watching my progress. (Tommy, age 13)
I’m 75 years old & have been training with Mary Jo for 8 years. I always feel better when I leave the gym than when I arrive. She has given me helpful tips to use in my daily activities to lessen pain in my joints, etc. She is so knowledgeable about the body & such a delight to be with that I actually look forward to working out. (Carol B., age 75)
MJ is the kind of trainer that listens to her clients and then kicks their butts into gear. She will make you work without too much pain & pressure. She will take you up a notch or down two depending on what you need. She rocks! (Randi R., age 46)
When I first started seeing MJ, I had back problems. Within 2 weeks of her exquisite zeroing-in on which muscles to strengthen & stretch, my back problem was gone! I feel much more confident in taking care of myself. She has made my life so much easier. (Sue K., massage therapist, age 53)
Six years ago, I lost a lot of weight through changing my diet. I had a lot of energy and was ready to take my body to the next step. I didn't know anything about working out with weights. In fact, I was terribly intimidated by people who knew how to workout and more so by the gym equipment itself. Mary Jo made me feel so comfortable and made it easy for me to learn how to workout properly to achieve the results I wanted. I am 33 years old and my body feels and looks better then it did when I was 23. I was never a natural athlete or someone who was blessed with genetics, so for me it is a big deal. Thanks to Mary Jo, working out with weights is something that I have grown to like very much and is an integral part of my life now. Mary Jo is not the typical boot camp personal trainer that you fear or dread to see. She becomes part of your enjoyable healthy life. (Marie, age 35)
