“Elissa was the first personal trainer I ever had. I was always afraid of injuring myself but from the very first day she took every precaution to make me feel comfortable and gradually increase my strength and endurance. I play a lot of tennis and she targeted those areas to make me stronger and more flexible on the court. Elissa is delightful to work with and very accommodating to my hectic schedule. You will love working with her.”

“Elissa was the 3rd personal trainer I have had. I am a 54 yr old women with some special needs from past injuries. I felt safe and comfortable with her, as she has had a lot of experience and knowledge in these areas. Other trainers I had did not seem to have the compassion and education I found with Elissa. I am stronger and happier than I have ever been. You won’t be disappointed.”

– Cheryl, Auburn Hills
is an excellent personal trainer! I was having issues with shoulder pain and wondered if my exercise routine was aggravating it. Elissa observed me exercising, made corrections to my form, and developed a great new plan. Situation is much improved now. She also gave me tips on nutrition and a great referral for a massage therapist. Thank you Elissa!

As a 51 year old lady who let herself go, working out with Elissa has been a life changer! She really understands a woman’s body, and has been able to help me get into the best shape I have been in in years. She is very encouraging, and has me on a workout regime that has gotten excellent results in a short period of time, without feeling like I’m killing myself. I actually look forward to working out now, which is something I could never say in the past. Highly recommended. Put in the time with Elissa, and you WILL see results!

What a great trainer!! I dropped weight, got in the best shape (not easy as we get older), and had fun. Elissa knows how to start where you are and take you to the next level, whatever your goal is.
