“If you don't read the full testimonial, take away this: Moorea is not just any run-of-the-mill trainer - She's a professional. She tailors the programming to you, your ability and goals which she accompanies with a wealth of practical knowledge (that I haven't found the bottom of yet). When you sign up with her, follow the plan and stay consistent, you will see positive results... and fast. Needless to say, I think very highly of Moorea and her training! She's astute, kind, patient and knows how to help you achieve your physical/strength goals.
For my full testimonial on my experience with Moorea, please read on.
For context - My health journey began in March of 2025. My husband and I were looking at a picture of ourselves with our kids from the previous year. He made a passing comment that we looked the same, but our kids had grown a lot in the last year. His comment (in a completely different way) hit me like a ton of bricks. What I saw in the picture was a broken promise I had not kept to myself. I was still wearing the same post-partum Mom clothes that I mentally had told myself were temporary when I originally purchased them and that baby weight (which I also told myself I would loose) was still there and slowly ticking upwards. In that moment I knew that if I didn't make a change I'd be looking in the mirror at some future date truly and deeply pissed at myself for not course correcting.
I did three things to get back on track with my health. I started by getting my hormones in order with my doctor, tweaking my diet and beginning a virtual strength training program. The generic strength training program left me feeling like I was just going through the motions without making any noticeable gains. When I finally admitted to myself that the programming I was doing wasn't working the way I really wanted (by a stroke of luck!) I found Moorea.
A year later - I've dropped 30 lbs, feel better than I have in the last 6 years, have actual muscle definition and can keep up with my boys (3 & 6). Today I look in the mirror and KNOW that I'm in the best health I've been in since I was a competitive athlete in college. AND that I'm on my way to seeing that former athlete again.
For me, Moorea is the linchpin in this. If she is taking clients, snag your spot before her roster fills up - you will not regret it!” -

“I've been training with Moorea and can confidently say she's a phenomenal personal trainer, especially for anyone into powerlifting. Not only is Moorea talented and experienced, but she also makes every session enjoyable and engaging. What stands out the most is her attentiveness; she's incredibly present and focused during workouts, ensuring that each set is performed with optimal form and efficiency.
Moorea's depth of knowledge is evident as she seamlessly integrated input from my physical therapist regarding a recent injury. Her skillful adaptations allow me to continue my workouts while rehabilitating effectively. Working with Moorea is a pleasure, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to enhance their fitness journey with a supportive and expert guide.” -

“Moorea is extremely knowledgeable, personable, passionate, and committed to helping you achieve your goals. Whatever they may be.
At the start of the year, I was prepping for a Powerlifting meet, and I reached out to Moorea about being my coach/handler for the meet in April. Without any hesitation, she agreed. She reached out to me when the date got closer, and we went over certain cues, things to look for, numbers for each attempt, and anything else I could possibly need. With a plan set in place, I felt very confident about going into the meet.
Literally, there is only one word for how the meet went and how I performed: Amazing! And I could not have done it without Moorea. Her instinct and decision-calling was incredibly spot on for each attempt, and I hit all my lifts. I went 9/9 for my first meet back after taking two years off. I was having a great day, and it could have been an easy call to go heavier on some attempts and risk missing the lift, but Moorea was very calculated in choosing the attempts and I hit them all. Just a wonderful day and experience.
Again, I am so incredibly thankful that I reached out to Moorea. There is no doubt in my mind that I wouldn’t have done that good without her there.” -

“My journey with Moorea started in late Sept of 2021. I was at a turning point in my life, and I wanted to make a life change for my health. I started looking at available gyms in my area. I was most impressed with AAW Gym and the trainers that they had available. I was so nervous to make that first call and meet one of the trainers in person. I was 52 years old, overweight, and not healthy.
I met Moorea for the first time during a consultation appointment. I met her in the afternoon, had a good feeling about her, and let her know that night that I was ready to start my life-changing journey!
She has been so supportive and encouraging throughout this entire process with me. I continue to improve my eating habits, weight loss, and strength. My new life change has encouraged my loved ones to improve theirs as well. She continues to surprise me with new and innovative techniques that I would never think of doing for myself. She is my training coach and my friend for life! Moorea has a caring spirit and is making a difference in many lives.”
