I’m Elizabeth Gorospe, owner of IN-HOME Mindbodydrive Personal Training. I have over a decade of fitness and personal training experience and education. And unlike most genetically fit trainers who have always been athletic their whole lives, I struggled with my body composition and strength ever since I was a child. I believe what sparked my motivation(subconsciously in the beginning at least) was from the humiliating trauma I experienced when I was being tested in P.E. class back in elementary school. I was the last one to reach the finish line in the running test, I couldn’t even reach my toes during the stretching test AND this was the last straw during the “Core-Strength” test when I could barely do 1 sit-up!-- all my classmates were laughing at me to the point where my friend laughed along WITH them WITH tears in her eyes :(
As a kid, my immediate reaction was to laugh at myself but deep down inside I was hurting and it was the most embarrassing moment in my life. As trivial as that “event” sounded, it was something I carried on as I got older. It drove me to be better..to DO better..Do a lil “Extra” every single time. With things that matter to me the most:
- when a friend’s birthday is coming up, I do a little *extra research and thoughtfulness on what is important to him/her at THAT particular moment, and he/she ends up having the most useful, sentimental gift.
- when I got into an accident later on and had to wear a brace(for 9 months) just for me to stand up, I did *extra exercises that weren’t prescribed to me(in fact, weirdly enough: I was NOT prescribed any type of exercise therapy whatsover). But I took it to my own terms to get my strength back gradually.
- whenever I leave for work, I do a little *extra slowing down instead of rushing, so when I open the door I am aware IF 1 of my cats are zooming out, and I look back to make sure they are in their safe respective places. That way I know they are home and safe, so I can walk them on a leash later.
- when I gained over 30 lbs during my college years, I was frustrated and tired. Dissatisfied with my look and confidence. After several errors that may have delayed my progress, I tried *extra workouts and *extra experimentation to learn what worked best for me. I did *extra studying and put in extra hours until I was finally able to swim in a happier place, with a body that is stronger and more fit than I’ve ever been.
- whenever I feel like I have reached that level of “Elite Fitness Knowledge,” I do even MORE *Extra continuing education, I seek more clients to help out and learn from.
This is what my clients KNOW I do BEST: Going that EXTRA mile for them, giving them that extra push, extra attention in their exercise form, texting them a little extra motivation, answering extra detailed questions, sharing extra nutritional enlightenment and thus giving them EXTRA RESULTS.

I contacted Elizabeth of MindBodyDrive about a year ago when I was looking for an in-home fitness trainer and love her work-outs. She is the most dedicated trainer that I have ever had; she pushes me beyond my perceived limits. I love the way she sends me text messages on the days we don't work out to motivate me to get moving and eat properly. I recently changed my diet to raw/vegan and she researched the best vegan protein powder for me and is always very mindful of making certain I get enough protein. She has also created routines with the equipment I have at home to get me to work out more often. During the time I have been working out with her, I have lost weight, gained strength and feel wonderful. I am not self-motivated to work-out on my own, but she has changed that with her repetitive coaxing. I was always a pretty healthy eater, but she has helped me improve in that area as well. She will ask about my meals and suggest better choices. My workouts are always fun and diverse and she brings her own equipment, but will incorporate whatever equipment you have. Love her, she's the best and I plan on continuing to use her as my personal fitness trainer!
I have been working out with Elizabeth for 2 months. After 20 years of working out with a variety of trainers and workout styles, I am very excited to find her. I am already seeing results in this short amount of time that I didn't always see after years of workouts with other trainers. She explains movement and consequences in a very easy way to understand and visualize. She is very hands-on and makes sure you are doing all of your movements correctly to maximize the results. Elizabeth is a bundle of energy when she arrives and has a no-nonsense but very "user friendly" approach in her training. I would have no hesitation to recommend her.
Elizabeth is an excellent trainer that could bring out the most in your workout. After telling her what I want to improve on, she would immediately know an exercise plan for me to take. When I asked that we work on building my core strength and jumping power, she showed a variety of ab and leg exercises that engaged muscle groups that weren't normally built through my normal routine. Through it all she paid special attention to my form, making sure that I did each movement properly so that I could get the best results. Her expertise, observation, and also her positive attitude make Elizabeth one of the best trainers around. I cannot recommend her enough.
Personal training with Elizabeth has enabled me to lose 30 pounds and to get back into shape! She keeps her workout routines fresh and fun. Her professionalism and enthusiasm is contagious as she challenges you to always try harder! Our workouts have primarily focused on powerhouse training enabling me to significantly increase my core strength. Lastly, the stretching at the end of each session maintains my body flexible and healthy.
As a trainer, Elizabeth is accessible and supportive, working far beyond the individual training sessions. Working with her was much more than just going to a gym, or meeting for a moment. I was in capable hands and the results were almost immediate. If you are serious about fitness, I would not hesitate to call Elizabeth.
I started training with Elizabeth being about 50 lbs overweight and barely able to do past a full sit-up. Focusing carefully on form, targeted exercise variations and key core areas, I have been able to learn diversified strength and resistance training. She has helped me understand how to best develop my body and truly enjoy working out. She has great sensitivity and has the ability to tailor the training program to fit my needs, my requests, and my physical capabilities. Being very self-conscious about being “fat”, I love that we can communicate candidly about weaknesses, goals, and solutions. She listens to me as her client and I can trust her fully as my trainer. It’s a team approach when we train together. As a plus, I receive compliments on my results daily.
Elizabeth is an amazing personal trainer! She was able to totally transform my mental state and help me tap into my physical side. I was able to overcome all of my bad training, eating and even sleeping habits…basically becoming a new and better me. I’ve seen muscle definition in places I never imagined. She’ll always be my #1 personal trainer!
When I started training with Elizabeth I was weighing 174 lbs and was a new mommy to a 4 month old baby. I obviously was not happy with my body and committed to working out the best I could to make a change in my physical appearance. Elizabeth has taken the time to send me meal plans, teach me about healthy eating and also guide me into making good food choices. Also, she has a unique style about her training in that she always explains the exercise to you and makes sure you get it before you actually do it. She also stretches you after every training session which I have found to be very helpful. Elizabeth always motivates me in continuing even when I feel like I want to give up. She is always there to make you go that extra mile and check in to make sure all is well. Though I cannot train as often as I should due to having two little babies at home, I make the best of it with Elizabeth’s help. I am happy with my results so far. I lost 17 lbs and am down to 3 sizes right now. I am motivated to keep working this out with Elizabeth until I reach my final goal!
I have been working with Elizabeth for a month now and I have definitely noticed that my body is firmer and more toned. I also feel stronger, healthier and less stressed. Elizabeth is tough yet sweet. Personable, professional and witty! I look forward to all of my workouts with her!
My wife and I have been working with her for years, and will continue to do so. If you're in shape, she helps get you in better shape. If you need to get into shape, she will help you get there. Her workout is highly flexible, and varies from week-to-week. If you are injured, she changes things up to keep you moving without making your injury worse. I recommend her to anyone who wants professional assistance achieving their fitness goals.
Elizabeth is knowledgeable, motivated and provides a tough but fun workout
Working with Elizabeth has shown me that I realize that I am capable of making changes and meeting my goals. For so long I felt defeated. Working with her showed me that I am capable. I am exciting to keep setting new goals, feeling stronger than ever, and of course, to continue seeing the pounds come off!
Two years after giving birth to twins I was still not happy with how I felt in my body and felt I needed to get back to feeling toned and healthy. Recognizing I would not reach my goals on my own, I set out to find a personal trainer. I did a search on Google which provided various trainers, among them Elizabeth. From the very beginning, the description Elizabeth provided on her profile, made me feel she would be the best fit. I contacted her and we spoke about what my goals and expectations were and we agreed to meet. From day one I could tell I had found the right person for my needs. She knows a lot about nutrition and the body and is ALWAYS on time, energetic, detail oriented and prepared with exercises in mind to get done. She was so successful in helping me reach my goals that some months into my training my husband also hired her as his trainer. These training sessions went on for about a year and then because of moving we had to stop working out with Elizabeth. But our story with her doesn't end there. About 2 years later my brother relocated from NYC to MIA and he was also needing someone to help him with his workouts. Again we reached out to Elizabeth who took on the job. As always she was punctual, energetic and knowledgeable, always with the workouts planned out. Then the pandemic hit and my brother was not able to continue his workouts but I was desperately needing to get back into shape so, again, I called Elizabeth who immediately was happy to accommodate me and start our workouts. This time because of the pandemic we do not use the gym but with Elizabeth there isn't a need for it. She comes to my home and we workout outdoors. She always brings all the equipment necessary and keeps the workouts super challenging. I couldn't be happier and my results have been immediate and not only I see this but family and friends have noticed as well. In the end, Elizabeth is an amazing trainer with a lot of knowledge and a caring personality. I'm super happy and I can't say enough good things about her and would highly recommend her to anyone. Keep up the awesome work Elizabeth!
I was searching for a personal trainer because although I was going to the gym, I was not seeing any results. My google search led me to Elizabeth's website. I called and we set up a telephone consultation. I was very impressed with her approach to training. She was interested in what I wanted to achieve and was very knowledgeable about my health concerns and injuries. We had our first sessions a few days later. She offered valuable advise and modifications in training based on my body! With our subsequent training sessions, she has worked with me on my form, balance, breathing and endurance. I love that she sends reminders about sessions and current health information. So far I have become much more confident in my exercise routine, improved endurance and strength. Elizabeth has taught me patience with myself, mindfulness with my eating and nutrition. I look forward to our training sessions, always different and always moving to the next level.
I needed help with my weight & my body. My body had blown up since I became a mom. I could never get back into a regular work out routine because of my mommy and work obligations. Everything took priority over taking care of myself. I decided to look online to see if in home training was an option. I found Elizabeth online. I never thought I could afford this. I am not a Kardashian..I looked for a little while and after reading Elizabeth's site I decided to give her a call. Her price was affordable and she was extremely flexible with my weird available time slots in the week. I needed someone who could understand how I was struggling. Not only had by beautiful figure disappeared it was also affecting me mentally and I was in a lot of pain because I had disregarded my body for too long. Elizabeth is patient and listens. She is 1 million percent reliable, and has a cool, calm persistence in our workouts. I have been working with her for only a short time, 6 weeks total. My entire body has already changed. My mental health is back to where it was before I started ignoring myself. She is my angel. If you are looking for someone to help you no matter where your at in life. Look no further. I promise you you'll be glad you did. NEVER GIVE UP
Having Elizabeth as my personal trainer is like working with a breath of fresh air! Her "get it done" attitude is motivating and is key to succeeding in my workouts! She listens to my needs and creates a plan to help me reach my goal. Her style is not pushy but encouraging. Just what I need in a personal trainer! I have been working with Elizabeth for a month now and I have definitely noticed that my body is firmer and more toned. I also feel stronger, healthier and less stressed. Elizabeth is tough yet sweet. Personable, professional and witty! I look forward to all of my workouts with her!
I have been with Elizabeth for about a year now and I have had the best training experience ever! I never used to get motivated to workout or even think about what I eat, but when I started my training with Elizabeth, I started caring more about my diet and health. She introduced me to protein shakes and healthier ways to eat. Elizabeth pushes me beyond what I can do and I have learned so much about working out and keeping your body in shape. I love how she's always motivated to do more and is committed to get me in shape. I love her routines and the way she reuses other tools in my house to workout. Elizabeth is the best to talk with and I love hanging out with her!
Elizabeth has helped me be consistent at making it to the gym. Since having Elizabeth as my coach I have consistently been going to the gym 3 times a week with her for 40 min and I also started walking and jogging on my own on a regular basis. Before having Elizabeth as my coach I was not able to be consistent at any exercise routine. I also have clothes that I was not able to fit into in December that now in March I am able to fit into comfortably. Having Elizabeth as my coach has helped me find a way to have a healthier lifestyle. Elizabeth is a dedicated trainer. She cares about her clients and is a happy person and nice to be around. I have learned that I am an obliger. I need someone to hold me accountable and Elizabeth provides that for me forcing me to be more active and have a healthier lifestyle which was one of my goals when starting with Elizabeth. I am able to fit into dresses I was not able to fit into since before I had my son. I am able to fit into jeans that I could not fit into in December. I am able to fit into shorts that I was not able to in December. Overall I feel better about myself and how I look. I am stronger than I was in December when I started training with Elizabeth and my endurance has improved as well. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth to others. It is great to have a team mate looking to achieve the same health goals as you are.
Elizabeth is a great personal trainer. I love that she comes to my home which allows me to workout outdoors. She also brings her own equipment so I didn't have to go out and buy anything. She is very good at explaining the correct way to do each exercise and always makes sure that I am comfortable with it. Elizabeth is a wonderful motivator and sends me text and emails throughout the week to keep me on track. She is very sweet and genuine which was really important to me to find someone who really cares about their clients and Elizabeth fits that and more. Since starting with her, I have noticed that I have gotten much stronger. I have also lost a few inches and pounds.
Elizabeth is the most dedicated trainer I have ever had; she pushes me beyond my perceived limits. I love the way she sends me text messages on the days we don't work out to motivate me to get moving and eat properly. I recently changed my diet to raw/vegan and she researched the best vegan protein powder for me. She has also created routines with the equipment I have at home to get me to work out more often. Love her, she's the best!
