About

I tailor workouts to clients' specific needs. Whether it's weight loss, muscle building, or corrective exercises, I write detailed plans for short and long term goals. I’m also experienced in training those with injuries to their back, knees, shoulders, etc. I like helping people exceed their own expectations in building a trim, functional, youthful body.

Spent a significant amount of time chatting with this individual regarding location. They even said "excellent" when I described my general location and neighborhood. So thought our initial conversation over the phone would go well. Instead I had to call the individual, they forgot about our scheduled phone conversation (incredibly unprofessional as far as I'm concerned to do this to a perspective client who will be paying you over $100/hr). it lasted about 1min. She asked where I lived (information already provided in text conversation) and promptly said oh that's too far away for me to come to you and ended any further conversation. Not sure I'd recommended this person.

Unqualified recommendation of Laura! I started using Laura as my trainer two years following back surgery. I had gained 20 pounds and was out of shape due to inactivity ( concerned and uncertain about which activities would and would not aggravate my back). As a result of my workouts and change in my diet I have lost 25 pounds and , more importantly, I am in the best overall condition I have been in since I was much younger. Laura focuses on overall conditioning, including strength, core, cardio flexibility and balance. She is a great listener and never pushes me to places she thinks may be detrimental or cause or aggravate my previous lingering injuries. Also just a wonderful, caring person which is important since you are one on one with your trainer for 50 minutes or more each session.

I have been training with Laura for about a month and I am so pleased the results. She puts a lot of thought into designing a routine that works for me individually, she listens to me and knows what my goals are. I really enjoy the space where we train; I feel like I can focus and get the most out of my time with her. Laura is a genuine person and a joy to work with. I’m so happy that I found her on here Thumbtack. I’m looking forward to see how I continue to progress working with her.

Laura has been an excellent trainer. She pushes me when I need it and reels it in when it's too much. She understands that inner strength is needed and she help me get over my inhibitions in working out. She makes it fun.
