Patty’s virtual personal training sessions were a life saver during the shutdown. My son, my daughter and I switched to virtual sessions in March, and we haven’t skipped a beat. Patty’s enthusiasm, motivation, creativity, and sharp eye for form accuracy keep us motivated and in line with our fitness goals. It is amazing what can be done with just a few dumbbells, a fitness ball, and a rubber band.

When I began training with Patty I was a vending machine addict. I was spending well over 150 dollars a month on sodas and junk food. With proper guidance Patty has helped me to kick that terrible habit! When people tell me I must be RICH to have a trainer I simply tell them that my FORMER junk food addiction now pays for my NEW healthy lifestyle! If I can do it anybody can! Thank you Patty!

I've always been active and athletic my whole life. One of my goals was to compete in a figure completion. Patty not only encouraged me but trained me and did my nutrition that helped me lose 3% body fat and 11 inches total! That may not seem like a lot but being 4'11" that was a lot for me. I could not have done this without Patty's help.

I had always struggled with my weight until I started my sessions with Patty. I also had gut issues and I want to feel and look better. Patty gave me food guidelines and the pounds fell off! I've tried other trainers who swear by you can eat whatever you want as long as it fits into your macros, which is totally false! Since eating whole foods and working out with Patty, I have more energy, less gut issues and more self confidence. I've lost over 50lbs Patty knows her stuff! I trust her 100%!

Even though there is no magic pill or potion for getting fit, I found my solution with Patty Dorton. I always thought that I was just a “bigger girl” and cared more about taking care of others, rather than myself. I kept thinking “well maybe one day I’ll figure it out.” Patty truly helped me through countless struggles and life changing events and taught me how to embrace health and fitness as a lifestyle. She took me in as family and treats me like her second daughter. Patty continuously motivates me and inspires me to make healthier decisions and teach me more and more about how our bodies work. With her help, I’ve lost 50 pounds since 2015 and managed to keep it off! I never want to go back to that unhealthy way of life and am so blessed to have someone like Patty there to help me through my journey.

I have spent my whole life battling with my weight and my poor body image. Thinking that I would always be the "chubby girl", I tried so many diets! When I met Patty through my husband I was immediately impressed with her knowledge and positive attitude. I decided that with her help I could actually succeed once and for all. So far I've lost over 20 pounds, lots of inches and I feel better than ever! Thank you Patty! You are a Godsend!
