Neera made running and training so enjoyable. I used to hate running, and now it’s a part of my daily routine. Can’t wait for this covid sh*t to end so I can sign-up for my first race.

Neera is great! After 1 session so far, I’m so glad I started with Neera. She was careful to design a program that would avoid strain on a bad ankle, and she checked in the next day to make sure My ankle was ok (it was). And the program kicked my booty...which is what I wanted! I’m a little scared of the next session, but in a good way. That means it’s working, right?

Working with Neera has really helped me reach my fitness goals. She puts time and consideration into each session introducing new exercises that meet my fitness level and help me improve. She is excellent at explaining the exercises and patient in demonstrating them when I need her too. I would highly recommend her for anyone look to work with a trainer who will meet you where you’re at to help you get to where you want to be.

Very good first session. Neera was prepared after our initial conversation and gauged my fitness level well. Everything hurt, in a good way! I look forward to the next session.

I had a few excellent sessions with Neera before I had to stop for a short while. She is on time, thoughtful in planning the sessions and delivers an amazing work-out! Highly recommend.
