I've been training with Joan twice a week for the last 9 months. She's an incredibly professional and gifted trainer not to mention a good spirited, kind, and patient person. Let me just say that I'm not a morning person, but I always look forward to our sessions at 7,15 am. Each session feels like a goal accomplished and I promise you'll never plateau under her supervision. She's got a holistic attitude towards training: paying close attention to forming good nutritional habits, maintaining proper posture during exercise, and always mixing it up to work out every muscle group. I swear she's got an encyclopedia of training movements in her head! Nine months in and I'm losing weight, gaining muscle, and generally feeling more confident. Aggravating muscle tweaks and random aches are a thing of the past, I'm drinking less coffee, and living life with more spirit. You'll do yourself a favor to reach out to Joan and start your own journey to fitness!

Joan is a ray of sunshine who makes working out fun and enjoyable (while still kicking your butt)! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a great trainer, at any level.

I've been training with Joan every week, for a little over a year now. She's very knowledgeable; I've learned so many new exercises that I'm able incorporate into my workout, when we're not training. Joan also acknowledges if your form is wrong and will correct it. She also knows of many modifications, to exercises, if you can't do the exact one. I highly recommend Joan! She's kind and fun to work with.

What is there to say about Joan that hasn't been said already? She is everything you would want in a personal trainer: knowledgeable, patient, flexible, enthusiastic, and is just a super kind-hearted human being. I've been a client of hers for over a year and she has been a joy to work with. Joan makes each of my sessions challenging yet fun. She really listens when I tell her what my current goals are and she is quick to adapt my workouts to fit around them as they change. She is motivating, easy to work with, and a whole hour zips by before you know it. Most importantly, Joan has given me the confidence and tools I need to walk into the gym alone and not feel so self conscious about working out. If you're looking to achieve your goals or just change your workouts up a bit, I would highly recommend Joan!

I have been working with Joan for a few months now. We originally connected by luck of the draw when I signed up for a trainer package at my local gym. I am far from being the gym type, and I was very concerned about my trainer being a good match for me. I needn't have worried, and I am fortunate to have Joan helping me reach my goals. She is warm, friendly, caring, punctual, and never, ever lets things get boring. Each workout is different from the last. She is totally focused on me during our time together. The level of challenge that she presents me is just right...enough to help me progress, but not so much that I get discouraged. Young or old, fit or out-of-shape, if you are in the market for a trainer, I highly recommend Joan.

I love working out with Joan. She is very professional and knows how to approach each and every session with a precise target. She has transformed my body to a healthy weight and i have greater confidence and more aware of my diet. I recommend Joan and you will not regret your choice. She is tough and you will see amazing results!

Working out with Joan for me has been a blast! She has a great sense of humor, honest, and very knowledgeable and precise when it comes to the technical aspects of proper form while performing various exercises and workouts. I have found her to be very professional in tone and conduct while ensuring that I got the most out of each rep and routine. Her motivating attitude helped inspire confidence within myself to push myself harder and achieve my fitness goals. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly educated, professional, and experienced personal trainer.

I was new at this gym I joined early last year and I do remember seeing Joan training other people. I was impressed with the way she worked and I wanted to gain some of that knowledge and incorporated it into my work out routine. My goal was to improve my form and get stronger and she definitely helped me to make this happen. I built my confidence and now I can lift heavier than before without getting injured. She knows what she is doing; she makes sure you have the right form before lifting. I do appreciate her professionalism, work ethic, and her willingness to share her knowledge.

Transform your life with Joan! Her first hand knowledge and education behind her passion, health and fitness, exceeds the competition. I have known Joan for years and she is my go-to person for fitness advice. The long term benefit of training with Joan, on top of the knowledge you will gain for the rest of your life, makes her a top pick for personal training in West LA.

Joan is great. Good variety of exercises, no nonsense but sympathetic with great energy.
