Judy

Personal Trainer

Having spent years as a certified personal trainer, nutrition wellness coach and group fitness instructor, I was initially skeptical about online training. I wondered how effective I could be as a trainer without being able to see clients in person.

Even with my doubts, I knew I would never know for sure unless I tried it. That’s when I took the opportunity to work for Vitality Fitness Delivered and train clients through live video sessions online.

What I have learned is clients are more comfortable training in their own home than in the gym. Our clients do not have to be concerned about wearing the latest fitness fashions, worrying if their hair is brushed or who is watching them like many clients I see at the gym. I love that many of my clients have dogs or cats that sometimes get in the act.

I find that you can still achieve that one-on-one relationship with the client and many of mine have become friends. They get great workouts in a short amount of time and with the convenience of being in their own home. I am encouraged by their personal progress and fitness gains. I am able to correct their form if necessary and encourage them to increase their weights or repetitions. They are accountable and receptive when I call to begin the online workout session.

I may have had doubts before starting this journey, but I have found the online format has a lot of benefits you won’t get in the gym. There are fewer excuses in the way of reaching your goals and the clients and I get a lot out of the experience.

My name is Elvis, I've been a personal trainer for several years training in weight loss, stability and strengthening, to conditioning for recreational sporting events. Through my fluency in Spanish and English and my experience in enduring extreme situations such as surviving cancer, training and rehabbing myself, a dance competitor in ballroom, obstacle course racer, training MMA and now a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioner, I have been able to help a broader range of individuals of all ages and levels.

It is there where I step in as your trainer, to guide, challenge, support and build you every step of the way. I believe, no matter the age or level of physical aptitude a person is at, with a purpose, everyone has the ability to change. This step towards a healthier you will be a challenge and for some, maybe a scary move to make, but remember this, that with every challenge comes personal growth and humility that translates to a confident, empowered and content mind, body and soul. I leave you with your first challenge, to commit to it. 80% of success is just to decide, the next 20% is the work. I look forward to meeting and start you on your personalized training program.

Stephanie Fowler

Personal Trainer

Stephanie has been steadily practicing yoga since her daughter was born 20 years ago. More than a little “me time” at the start of motherhood, it was a way to hold space and build that essential mind, body, and breath connection.

Before retiring from a rewarding 30-year career in education, Stephanie unofficially embraced a new career as a yoga teacher by stepping onto the yoga mat in front of her at-risk high school students as a way to incorporate social-emotional learning into her high school four years ago. Loving how her students (and staff) benefited from being introduced to yoga, she became a fully trained yoga teacher and recently finished an advanced training. She is now a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher!

Stepping into her 50s, she is passionate about helping women age awesomely by increasing mobility and strength and decreasing stress. Off the mat, these days Stephanie is usually surrounded by furry, four-legged family members vying for her attention. In her spare time, she loves to explore life with her husband, read, write, renovate their 50-year-old home, and connect with friends.
