“Jonathan is an outstanding trainer that I highly recommend. I have been using Jonathan for over a year and a half and he has helped me tremendously. Jonathan is extremely knowledgeable and tailors the programs to meet your individual needs. I am an Ironman Triathlete and was looking for improved strength, balance and flexibility. Working with Jonathan I was able to achieve all three. Because of my workouts with Jonathan, I am now racing injury free for the first time in many years! Importantly, Jonathan is a man of integrity who has a heart to serve his clients. He deeply cares about them deeply and sincerely wants them to succeed. I highly recommend him!”

“Ryan seeks for every client to succeed. He is energetic, polite, respectful, and accommodating to my schedule/workout needs. He has a “won’t give up” attitude and sees you as an individual and not just a number. Within my first 90 days of training with Ryan, I was down 1 dress size, losing many inches in my legs/waist/hips, my energy was up, and I was improving in areas of strength and cardio fitness. Ryan consistently checked in with me prior to my workouts to ensure the program was exceeding my expectations, and provided guidance and encouragement when I was struggling. Training with Ryan and Elite Fitness has been a wonderful experience – its safe, effective, challenging, and fun, and I would highly recommend and encourage anyone to schedule a training session today!”

“Hiring an in-home personal trainer takes a lot of trust and commitment. From the moment I met Erika, she brought a sense of calm confidence that assured me it was a fit. Her passion, knowledge, and connectivity to her clients motivates me to continue. I am impressed by her consistent drive to challenge me to reach new goals– and doing it with a cheerful demeanor even early in the morning!”
