“I've worked with multiple trainers over the past 5 years - across both coasts - and I can say with full confidence that Ioana is the best. She is so easy to work with and has a very genuine and easygoing personality that helps me feel at ease even when I am pushing myself to the limit. Having felt intimidated by gyms & workout culture for most of my life it is incredible to now be at a place where I have confidence in my body and my ability to build strength. My body looks and feels amazing. I get compliments all of the time. I'm so grateful for Ioana's knowledge and disposition - our training sessions fly by because they are actually fun. Physical health is so important for every aspect of our lives and I highly recommend working with Ioana.”

Personal Training

“I've been working with Ioana for a little over a month and I'm starting to notice big changes in how I feel; how clothes fit, my current energy levels, how strong I feel and more. I'm not a total novice in the gym, but I think personal training has given me a lot of advantages over just training by myself. You get a guided approach from an expert, who provides you with a training course specifically suited to your own goals. You get someone to make sure you're maintaining optimal form and tempo for each exercise and also making sure you're resting and recovering properly. You get to train in a non-public gym with good facilities. Also, Ioana is cool, encouraging, and fun to train with. I've had a good experience and looking forward to my future progress! Thanks, Ioana.

Personal Training

“I have been working with Ioana since late 2020. We were introduced through my daughter who had been training with her for a year and had achieved impressive results. I live overseas but we connected online and discussed my initial goals. I am a fairly active person (hiking, skiing, doing triathlons) but needed someone to help me strengthen my body and get rid of those constant nagging injuries. Over the past 3 years, Ioana has regularly developed programs that consider my busy traveling schedule and active lifestyle. I have been incredibly pleased with her training as well as my own progress and I highly recommend Ioana as a personal trainer."

“I have been training with Ioana for exactly 4 months now! I have had incredible progress within the 4 months and proud to say I have rapidly lost 25 lbs with the hard work from her training and guide in nutrition.

I never have been the type to go to the gym, but she has helped me turn it into a lifestyle change. As a beginner, she has helped me ease into all the workouts, and I am confident to execute everything that I've learned and develop healthy habits.”

Nutrition & Personal Training

“I started strength training with ioana to get stronger and be able to hike Vernal Falls in Yosemite. In the process I’ve gained muscle, endurance, lost 17 pounds, and confident not only in my ability to hike, but also how I feel and look.

I no longer get tired after walking 10 minutes and can now hike 2 and a half hours.

The workouts are fun, she is so easy to talk to, and biggest thing I’ve gained is learning how to workout and be confident in the gym.”

“I used to feel intimidated by weights and machines, but Ioana has given me so much confidence and always celebrates what I consider to be even my smallest wins. And I started small when 5lb weights felt like they were 100 each. I can carry even more now, and it’s exciting for me to watch my progress at my own pace.

What sets Ioana apart is that she genuinely feels like she’s on my team, not just training me. She listens, encourages, and pushes me in a way that feels empowering, never overwhelming. Every session is well-structured, challenging, and tailored to my needs, whether it’s strength training, mobility work, or injury prevention. She always ensures my form is correct and explains the “why” behind every movement, which has helped me build confidence in my workouts.

She’s also been incredibly attentive to my shoulder issues, making sure I keep moving without stiffness while still progressing in my workouts. Plus, her positive energy is contagious—it makes even the toughest sessions feel rewarding!”
