Reviews and Testimonials

I believe the best reviews come directly from the people I've helped. Here are a few:

--- "I am 85 years old and have been active my entire life until a few years ago when we sold our cattle ranch and when, almost simultaneously, my employment as an exploration geologist ceased because of the principal owner’s battle with Alzheimer’s disease. Because of my prior activities I never had to think about keeping fit, and after "retirement" I had but little self motivation to do so. However, my daughters "kept on my case" until I finally signed up for personal training in order to counter my physical decline (and get my daughters off my back). In the past few months, with weekly 45 minute sessions and minimal exercises at home, my physical condition has greatly improved (I still have a ways to go) and I feel much better both physically and mentally. Dalene has been a great coach, acting as my incentive and cheerfully encouraging and guiding me through different exercise routines designed specifically for my particular needs. Thanks Dalene!"  ~ Jack H

--- "I am a 53 year old woman with menopause knocking on my door.  I also am under a doctor's care for rheumatoid arthritis.  Dalene has been great to work with my achy joints and helped me gain my strength back mentally and physically, encouraging me along the way with a smile.  Some weeks pushing me when I was pushing the opposite direction.  Dalene was a great listener when we went through a thorough consultation.  I believe after the 6 month training, I have seen great results in my biceps and legs.  I saw pictures of my toned body and was shocked at the results!  Lost at least two pant sizes.  Dalene was also readily available to work around my busy schedule for one on one training sessions.  We often laughed and I left the session knowing that was a good workout and knew I was going to feel that the next day, in a good way!  Thank you, Dalene, for pushing me to meet my fitness goals."  ~ Sandy C

--- "A coworker told me about Dalene, who specializes in older clients.  I started 2 days a week at the gym and alternate days at home.  Dalene sent me different workouts to work on from home.  When I had some exercises I had difficulty with, she would give me other ideas to try until I could build up enough strength to complete the task.  Dalene has been awesome to work with and has become a great coach and friend." ~ Tammy C

--- "Dalene is a Certified Personal Trainer.  She loves to work with older adults.  My physical therapist recommended that I continue rehabilitating my hip after I broke it, and get a coach that will show me how to use machines and best exercises for my age (81) for full recovery.  The cost is reasonable.  She is fun to work with and knows her job.  I would recommend her if you want to rehab or just get in shape." ~ Lynne H
