Hiring Dani to help me reach my goal of getting healthy, losing weight and toning my body has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. Her knowledge and commitment to helping me achieve my goals have been instrumental in my success and I wouldn't have been able to do it without her. I'm on a healthier, happier path now because of Dani!!

We hired Dana to get my friend in shape and he believes she is the best. It has been a long time since he has worked out and so had to take it slow. Dana understood this and has implemented a program that is varied (so he doesn't get bored) and works as he has lost inches and pounds.

Actually I started with Dani on Feb 15th ! I forgot to let Thumbtack know that I hired someone. The first text I got back from her , I knew that I wanted her to train me . Her energy was amazing and her promptness attracted me . You might see a few trainers with lower rates but she's worth every dollar . You also see a lot of trainers with higher rates that is not necessary because she does the job so well !Today is my 5th day and I lost 3.5 lbs in 4 days . I know I loose more today ! She is the sweetest , kindest , most caring ,and most punctual trainer I have had so far and believe me I had a few ! She's not pushy but very encouraging. She replies to my texts promptly when I have a question about my diet or exercise . She does not force you to start the great diet that she offers for FREE but she suggests it and since I have to reach my goal weight quickly , I started the diet too which is amazingly enough making me feel better too . She's very flexible on her times and hours . Even though she makes me sweat hard , I still can't wait to see her tomorrow. Thank you so much Dani :)

Both my wife and I are working with Dani to get to better shape. Dani is great to work With, she doesn’t let us “off the hook” and always pushing but ensuring we are within our limits +.
Highly recommended

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have found that this is a luxury and also an art. I try to work within budgets. Generally, I charge by the hour but can also get quite a bit done in 30 minutes if that is all a person can afford. It will be a difficult 30 minutes but only because I am so result oriented. $75/hour is my usual fee, but I have many package deals that can bring it down to about $65. There is no gym fee because I have a gym at my home that is fairly well equipped.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first thing I do is evaluate them. I take their weight and their measurements. I ask many questions about health, medications, and family history. I discuss goals. I ask about exercise experience and tolerance for soreness. I try to put myself in their shoes and get to know them as quickly as possible so I can help them beginning with the first session.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been ACE certified since 1994. I take continuing education classes yearly. I read new information that comes out weekly. I have trained at least 500 people in the course of my 23 year personal training career. It is the only job I have and I do it full time.
