About Natasha
I adapt to you... Cookie Cutter programs are not why you're here, so let's talk about YOUR wants/needs. If you don't see a spot open on my calendar, message me and we can find a time that works.
About me: I don't just train you, but I teach/coach you. I will train you how proper form is going to make you strong and how to prevent injuries. If you suffer from an injury like bad knees or back (just to mention a couple) I specialize in making you stronger and help to get that strength back in those problem areas. I teach by example. I don't tell you what you need to do, I show you. I break down what muscles you are using and how to execute the set properly so you are always going to get the most out of every workout. I'm also CPR/AED certified. If you don't see your city on the service list, please contact me. Depending on my schedule, I may be able to work something out.
My favorite client story
A single mom who felt great about herself, but had no idea how much better she could feel on the inside and outside. Through a great nutrition plan and training, she has lost 40lbs. over 8 months and has kept it off. In that time she has dropped 3 pants sizes and now trains in sports she didn't even think she could accomplish before. She has more energy to play with her kid and also the confidence to date.
My favorite exercise
Functional Training... It's a great way to get your body not only "in shape" but healthy. Using your own body's natural ability to move in six degrees of freedom. As an athlete helps me to perform at my best without injury. Strengthening the core and stamina in a natural movement allows for real strength and endurance to last.

My training experience
I have been an athlete my whole life, a semi/pro one since Jan 2006. Nutrition and training have always been a huge part of my life. I completed training for nutrition in 2010 and 2012 completed my certification for personal training. I have been a coach/trainer for most of my career in sports. I've always loved helping people feel their best both inside and out! I feel, when you succeed, I succeed!

Natasha was my personal trainer twice a week for 7 months. She always gives 110% and makes the hard business of physical fitness fun. (She also is a fearsome Roller Derby Queen). In a word, she's AWESOME!
Always a lot of fun! I always have a good time at the boot camps. Some classes have almost all ages which makes it a blast! If I could give more stars I would!
Maryland is lucky to have gained such a stellar trainer! While I trained with Natasha in California I not only lost pounds but also gained self confidence and a healthier lifestyle. Natasha was comprehensive, positive, versatile and diligent in making sure I got results. She took turns being my cheerleader or drill sergeant depending on what motivation I needed at the moment. Listen to her and you will hit your goals!!!
As a former client I have to say that Natasha is passionate about helping you get the results you want! She makes sure to understand your goals and sets up a comprehensive workout and meal plan for you. Definitely recommended!
In addition to Natasha being a great trainer, she's also an awesome accountability partner. She helps me stay on task and reminds me about my goals and plans. And she does the reminding without being a nag so I actually listen to her which is a nice change. She doesn't let me get down on myself but helps me acknowledge the things I want to work on. She's awesome; you should totally work with her, too!
Natasha has been an amazing trainer from day 1. Not only is she incredibly educated on the human body and how to work it out, she truly listened to my concerns and adjusted exercises when necessary. Highly recommend for anyone!
Natasha is a fantastic trainer. She balances exercises that do different things and that work different muscle groups, which leads to very balanced fitness. She is super knowledgeable and thinks of ways to modify exercises so that they work best for my body. Natasha quickly knows, when I describe where I feel an exercise, whether I am working the muscles correctly or how I can adjust to be effective. I so appreciate her deep expertise in fitness, her sense of fun, and her support and encouragement which she brings to our sessions. I'd highly recommend working with Natasha!
Natasha is a teammate and friend of mine, and she really does fantastic work. She’s thorough, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She also has experience working with people with mobility challenges and hypermobility, which was a huge draw for me. I look forward to every time I get to learn and work with her, and you should really check her out!
