Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

I list my current prices on my website. The price you receive from me includes everything you’ll need during each visit. I bill clients once a month for an added convenience.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I always meet with my client for a consultation & an assessment. I create a custom exercise program based on the clients needs. We set up our first official appointment. There is no obligation to work with me long term. I am available , as needed or weekly .

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I'm a certified personal trainer, & a nutrition / lifestyle coach. I am certified with Action, NESTA, and America Fitness Professional Association.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I enjoy the endless benefits of daily exercise. When I began my business, I was working with people who needed to lose weight. Within a year, I started to work with a few seniors. The work with older adults was where I received more joy. I loved working with these people. I felt the need to create a program to fit the special needs of seniors. I keep the program flexible and change it as the client's needs change. This is a niche in the fitness business that offers more than a gym can provide.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I specialize in functional exercise for seniors. My oldest clients are 91 & 98. Seriously! I create programs for all kinds disabilities or injured individuals. These include conditions such as COPD, Parkinson's, & dementia, Many people come to me with injuries in their back, neck shoulders, knees,& ankles. I can add physical therapist prescribed exercises & stretches into your session. I teach exercise and stretch classes to assisted living in Ventura County.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Meet your trainer in person. Ask them to tell you the services that will be included into the price. Every trainer specializes in different types of programs. Make sure their style fits your needs.
