I have been working with Ronnie for 3 weeks now and am finding her SO helpful! I've had some health issues for the last couple of years that have seriously interfered with my activity level. Ronnie has been training me via Zoom and is so patient, yet a taskmaster. We are focusing on strength training. I appreciate her focus on proper form, and pushing me to do "just a few more". I highly recommend her and her training methods. More...

I've been working with Ronnie for over a year now and it's the best decision I've made toward meeting my fitness goals. I've never been self-motivated when it comes to weight training, so I started working with a trainer at a local gym, a large national franchise, but quit after a few months because I found the training to be way too repetitive with very little variety. I got bored. I heard about Ronnie from a local neighborhood board and it was a revelation that I could train at home, saving me time and the extra expense of a gym. She's been amazing at tailoring the workouts to keep me mentally engaged and ensuring that I'm progressing. And she's really fun to work with, always incredibly positive and engaged. She cares deeply about her clients and is always looking for ways to improve the experience. When we transitioned to training virtually, I was surprised by how seamless the experience has been. I don't feel like I'm compromising my fitness which is great. I can't recommend her enough! More...

Having Ronnie as my personal trainer has proven to be a great decision. She not only put me back in to working out and enjoying it by creating a challenging workout plan and getting me to keep track of the calories I take in, but she made sure to get to know me as a person in order to better be in tune with with my physical goals and concerns.

I love being in Ronnie's senior fitness class. She is so unique in so many ways, in her training, in her personality, and the way she makes a person feel.

Ronnie is one of the "BEST" physical trainers ever. She cares about the needs of every one of her students and encourages them to be all that they can be.

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
I train you to safely and effectively to boost your metabolism, lose excess body fat, build muscle mass, endurance and balance and to keep challenging yourself and KEEP ON TRACK! I encourage you and let you know when and how you're doing well and to keep it up! I also correct you and guide you so you don't waste your money and time.
I help you figure out how you can realistically schedule your workouts, eat well, stay motivated, be accountable, and what will make you make the right changes for life. You have to understand your body and your priorities, and I can help.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
It’s hard to get and stay motivated to work out and eat right - what with work, family, and social media socializing! We work together to keep you in check, with proper training sessions custom-tailored just for you. My credentials speak for my skills and education, but it’s my experience with people and my interest in them that will get you there.
What do you love most about your job?
I love that my clients really want to progress and yearn to feel good in their bodies, and when I see that happen - zowie! I love being a sounding board for the challenges, and often notice things that they may want to check out with their M.D., or other types of professionals. I love being part of your team! (along with your: family, doctor, chiropractor, nutritionist, physical therapist, counselor and whoever else you trust and use).
What inspired you to start your own business?
When I was 41, my right hip and lower back started hurting. It started overnight, as if something had been strained but I hadn’t done anything in particular to hurt myself. My back hurt for weeks, so I finally went to a hip specialist in Beverly Hills – he was touted as one of the best. He told me I had degenerative disc disease. Agh!!! That sounded awful! “Disease!”
But he told me most women over 40 got it. I did my homework and found out degenerative disc disease is when the discs that make up your vertebrae dry out and shrink, reducing the space between the discs, often causing pain. It’s a natural part of aging.
The “hip specialist” prescribed a choice of either a pain killer, a patch or pills. I asked if there were a way to cure it and he told me it might subside but there was no way to reverse it. Well, I’m not a pill-popper. THAT’S JUST ME. I went to another western Medical Doctor. He suggested pain killers, stretching, and possibly fusing my vertebrae. I did not want surgery to my spine! I asked him “Doctor, if this was your wife, would you advise her to have the operation?" and he said no.
Decompression, acupuncture, yoga and four chiropractors later I was worse than before. I gave up. I was at my wit’s end. A friend told me about a chiropractor who would give me a free consultation. I said, “But I've been adjusted, pulled, poked, and rubbed with cold gel followed by ultra sound… nothing has worked!”
He said, “Go!”
So I went. That chiropractor said it seemed like my problem was more of a quality of life issue, and that I didn’t know how to work-out and stay my active self without pain.
The Chiropractor teamed me up with PERSONAL TRAINER who was a CORRECTIVE EXERCISE SPECIALIST. Guess what happened? I stopped hurting!
As we trained for about a year I would read about fitness, working-out, nutrition, anatomy and various ways of training and talk about it with my trainer. She kept telling me that I should become a personal trainer, that that I needed to become a personal trainer.
I just laughed. Then about a year later, I woke up one morning and asked myself, “What do I want to do the next 20 years of my life?” I smiled and realized that I wanted to be a personal trainer. So at the ripe age of 46, I studied my brains out and passed my Certifications as fast as I could. I try to help others not only to not hurt but to feel good, to feel fit, to be healthy and in shape. And, I don’t hurt anymore.
Why should our clients choose you?
“In addition to being a Certified Personal Trainer for everyone, I have studied and been certified as a Senior Fitness Specialist - and a Certified Pre/Post Natal and Pregnancy Fitness Coach. My knowledge includes biology, physiology, and the psychology of both. t
Picking the right trainer for you is important - you have to look forward to training, feel good after each session, and most importantly, to get what you want! That's what I want too... my client's goal becomes my goal.
