About
First, you'll learn to build an acute awareness and sense of control over your body in every plane of motion. Then, I'll work with you to become a stronger, faster, more capable version of yourself in every aspect of your life. Whether you are 80 years old and trying to avoid a loss of bone density and muscle mass, 15 years old and training for a sport, or trying to stay healthy and strong through and after pregnancy, I will work with you to achieve your goals.
In addition to my foundational trainer certification, I am certified through the Postural Restoration Institute, Functional Range Systems, NASM Corrective Exercise, Pre/Post Natal fitness, Behavior Change, and Physio Network’s hip pain assessment and rehabilitation course.

Ruby has helped me in so many ways. On top of the perhaps obvious, which is that I have become stronger and so much more consistent through her coaching, I really appreciate Ruby’s responsiveness to my ongoing work on my relationship with body image, diet culture, and misconceptions about exercise. She adjusts our workouts to meet my goals, notices when certain verbiage or approaches aren’t working for me and switches it up, AND stays positive even when my perfectionism dominates a session. Ruby is an educator - she truly thinks about each client and their needs and accommodates them, putting the PERSONAL in personal training.

Ruby is an excellent trainer with an immense amount of knowledge about how the body moves and how to utilize breathe within your movement. But most importantly her personality makes a welcoming and accepting environment to help you conquer your goals!

Ruby is amazing. I started seeing her once a week just over a month ago, and I am already feeling strong, confident and empowered. She really takes the time to make sure I am doing each exercise correctly and pushes me to drive past what I thought was possible. Do not sleep on this trainer!

I could tell while taking a group TRX class with Ruby that she would be a great coach—she offered personal attention and corrections to each member of her class and demonstrated a strong understanding of alignment and biomechanics. As a personal trainer, she listens when I tell her something in my week has made my body hurt and gives me adjustments and a variety of exercises that have helped with pain management and strength building.

100% Ruby has changed my life. I wasn’t even looking to start a personal training program when I availed of the free consult and training session through Chelsea Piers, as I was relatively fit and had a good spin/yoga/weighted HIIT routine going. I am so glad I went for it. Ruby immediately diagnosed the little aches and troubles I had been living with and it is no exaggeration to say my body and outlook and lifestyle have changed completely for the better. I am stronger, more adventurous and confident in the gym—and this extends to outside life too.
She challenged me in the best (and very frustrating!) ways, hitting on my areas of weakness and not letting up on quality. Check your ego at the door folks! She was always aiming to empower and equip, ready with encouragement while sticking to pretty rigorous standards of form. Which, as a longtime yoga practitioner, I deeply appreciate. Ruby applies the right amount of pressure (not overbearing or causing a break) to get you right to the edge where change and growth happens. Great advice on goals and nutrition too!
Best part of working with Coach Ruby? Even the hardest workouts feels like shooting the shit with a buddy.
