About
My goal is to help you reach yours. I have a genuine passion for fitness, physical therapy and work hard to make your transformation process, whatever it may be, fun and exciting for every client. No two bodies are the same so we will tailor a plan to reach your long term goal and celebrate every short term goal reached.
Being a motivating factor, making your transformation a fun and exciting process, and being a part of the excitement that comes with you reaching your goals...is why I do this.
I don't just have a piece of paper saying I'm a personal trainer or a certified glute specialist...I also practice what I preach and work hard myself.
I broke my neck in 2011, had double back fusion (L4L5-L5S1) in 2017 and total hip replacement in 2021. Did my own rehabilitation/physical therapy. Therefore, I have a passion for and am good at helping clients mobilize those immobile or recovering parts of their body regardless in nature.

I booked Penny for my wife with hopes she would hit her personal goals. My wife really enjoyed the whole process and experience penny provided. She hit her goals and has become much more stronger than ever. I highly recommend Penny for anyone who would be looking for a personaltrainer.

I hired Penny for my girlfriend as a birthday surprise while visiting New Orleans and here’s what she had to say: “Penny was immaculate! Her pressure was just right and she took the time to make sure all of my tight knots were out of my body…literally from head to toe. I explained to her I drive for a living and she took it from there. It was my birthday and what a wonderful way to start it off. Relaxed and pain free! Thank you Penny for a wonderful job can’t wait to come back and get it done again!”
My girlfriend is hard to please when it comes to massages due to the depth of her knots in her back. She will use the hardest object to lean against for pain relief. So for her to say it was immaculate speaks volumes to the work of Ms. Penny. Be specific to what you need and she will deliver.

Penny is a fantastic trainer. She helps me maximize my efforts without being intimidating or pushy, and after just a handful of sessions I’m feeling fantastic and glad to be getting back in shape. Also, Penny has a great personality so workouts are fun and enjoyable and the hour passes quickly.

Penny is a fantastic personaltrainer, focused and dedicated to offer you the best work-out you can imagine. The sessions with her were truly amazing. Her custom approach, attention to detail, and motivational style make her a great choice for anyone interested in living a more healthy lifestyle. Penny showed me...how to stay motivated and not give up. If you are looking for a trainer in New Orleans area please contact her ... it could be the first step towards a better YOU.

Penny was extremely professional. She was right on time and my back feels so much better. I am paralyzed and she was able to work around that to provide me with a great experience
