Lynn is very knowledgeable in fitness training! I have gained so much from her. She is non judgmental, and wants to share her knowledge with others. I highly recommend her training.
Lynn has helped me through some back issues that I'd been suffering from for over 4 years. Her constant suggestions and attention to detail was so much appreciated! She is very knowledgeable in many areas of fitness allowing my training to be very creative! My favorite experience with Lynn was her taking me through Yin Yoga. It was extremely calming as she worked with me on the poses and didn't rush the hour I spent with her. Very thankful to know Lynn and experience her training!
I highly recommend Lynn Block. I started working with her because I wanted to have someone hold me accountable. She has helped me set goals and make changes to my routines. The changes I am making are permanent and lasting changes. Thank you.
