Why did you go into Personal Training:
I worked with individuals with developmental disabilities and noticed how much impact strength training had on them. Once I saw this, I knew I wanted to help all individuals reach their goals and create a healthier lifestyle.
Laurie’s Success Stories
Janet K.
Training with Laurie since January 2022 has been essential to my health and well-being as a senior client. She is both professional and caring, always listening to my future goals as well as any previous injury concerns. Her thoughtful approach has helped prevent flare-ups from a past marathon injury that requires ongoing strengthening work.
As a 65-year-old woman who has been active since my youth, having goals keeps my mental health, cognitive function, bone strength, and balance on track for healthy aging—and Laurie has consistently helped me achieve those goals. She is the reason I continue to renew my Personal Training sessions at RWJ. On a personal note, meeting and training with Laurie helped me overcome the post-pandemic fitness slump after so many gyms closed. I truly enjoy our weekly sessions and always look forward to them.

I have been struggling with weight loss and chronic pain and signed up for the gym multiple times in the past and gave up. Honestly, now I look back, I needed a good trainer like Laurie, who patiently worked, understood, and encouraged me every time I met with her. She is professional, sensitive and the reason I didn’t give up this time. Even though measurable results are not exact, I have so much hope, encouragement, and strength to move forward. Thanks to her! I will not give up and get these muscles moving as I am aging now!
