Dawn is the best trainer I have ever had and I have had many. One thing that especially stands out is her knowledge of how to adapt exercises to ensure that injuries or aches and pains are not aggravated when working out. This allows those issues to resolve and I still get a great workout. This is more and more valuable as I age. Highly recommend Dawn for anyone of any age wanting to get more fit!

Dawn is amazing. She is an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable trainer. I have chronic back issues because of the physicality of my job. She easily adapts my workouts to whatever my current level of function is and she can change an exercise on the fly if I am experiencing pain. She really understands how the body works and how to tailor exercises when the body has dysfunction. In addition, she is warm and kind and operates from the highest level of professionalism. This site only allowed me to choose 3/5 things I love most about Dawn, but I would choose all 5: work quality, professionalism, responsiveness, value, and punctuality(she is punctual, always right on time). I do not have enough positive things to say about my experience with Blackstone Fit. Dawn helps keep my body strong and moving so I can enjoy my life. I highly recommend working with her.

I started seeing Dawn about 18 months ago to get serious about my fitness and to help strengthen my back. I work in a sedentary job that involves a lot of repetitive motions while locked in a hunched posture. I got frustrated because I started throwing out my back more and more often. It got to the point where I would be hesitant to even turn around to look behind me while backing up my car for fear of injuring my back with the torquing motion. Since seeing Dawn, I haven't thrown out my back, I've lost the fear and regained confidence in my body, and, along with it, freedom of motion in my core. 18 months later, I weigh over 10 lbs less without significant changes to my diet and lifestyle, gained muscle, developed definition and strength all over--especially in my arms and shoulders, which I never had!--and my husband's even so impressed that he's now training with Dawn, too! Dawn is not like the TV trainers--she doesn't yell and doesn't project aggressive, overly masculine energy, and she is always encouraging, supportive, and pushes me through exercises I didn't think I could do. She doesn't use shame tactics, and I always feel better about myself after spending time with her. Best of all, working out with Dawn is working smarter, not just harder. She's also so knowledgeable about the body, so anybody--even people with injuries--are in good hands with her. I am so glad that I found her, and I look forward to many more years of training with her! Alice W.

Dawn knows her field of expertise well and has an ability to get at a muscle a different way if you are having trouble with an activity. I value her greatly!
