Real women, real progress. These are my clients — lawyers, engineers, directors and moms — with their real numbers, many measured by DEXA scan, eating food they still enjoy.

What clients say

Read my reviews on Yelp

“I found Erika through my friend, while I was in a rut and looking for someone to push me a bit into becoming a better version of myself. From thinking this would only be a few months, I have now been working with Erika for about 2-3 years now, and I have never felt more healthy and in-tune with my body.

We started with weight lifting, transitioned into helping me with how to fuel my body with nutrition services, and now we are back on regular weight training programs. And at this point, I'm honestly not sure I could ever part with her!

She is supportive, pushes you without driving you away, but most of all understands your goals and how to help you achieve them. She truly believes in her clients and I think that personable nature is what differentiates her from the rest of the trainers out there. She genuinely cares and will not let you fail.

I am more confident in my body, know how to feed it, and feel more confident in myself as a person as a result.

If even just starting small and looking to implement a weekly/biweekly or short routine to get you back on track with your physical and mental health, Erika is a great person to start with.”

“I have been training with Erika for almost 3 years now. Since we have started working together, not only have I noticed my physical strength increase, I am also a lot more confident going to the gym. Erika makes workouts digestible and easy to follow. She is so good at explaining exercises so that I can understand, even when they are a bit complicated. She is incredibly encouraging and makes working out such a joy. I would highly recommend her services no matter your level of experience!!”

“Starting in my mid-60s, I've lost over 15 lbs, gained strength, and achieved my best lab results in ten years. What sets Erika apart is her intuitive, encouraging approach. She tailors workouts around my back pain and incorporates foods I love, making healthy living enjoyable.”
