I have been training with Devan for close to eight years, and I can honestly say that it's been transformational. Like a lot of women, I had been conditioned to believe that I couldn't or shouldn't pick up a dumbbell heavier than ten pounds. My own internal conditioning made me believe I wasn't athletic or coordinated. Fortunately, Devan knew differently. It's hard to put into words how much her coaching has helped me grow. While keeping in mind my personal goals, Devan challenges my notions of what I can do. Working with her has made me stronger, more mobile, and - most importantly - more confident. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have worked with Devan for the last 8 years in various fitness settings from group workouts to one on one and virtual and I credit her with the tremendous progress I have made with my personal fitness. She is knowledgeable, professional and possesses excellent people skills. She has the inherent ability to size up my strengths and weaknesses(both of mind and body) and then devise a program that has allowed me to achieve improvement in my muscle and core strength as well as my flexibility and balance. She provides appropriate suggestions for modifications of the workout based on my abilities or any physical limitations I might be experiencing that day. She is encouraging and helps me set realistic goals. Whether you are new to the fitness world or more experienced, she is able to individualize her recommendations to provide you a safe, nonjudgmental and helpful space to pursue your goals. You will not be disappointed with your experience with Devan …she is a rock star!

After speaking with Devan about my goals, nutrition, and workout habits, I learned I needed to modify things. She was good about complimenting the things I was doing correctly while encouraging me to take small steps towards healthier habits. These modifications have allowed me to drop a few pounds, have more energy from start of day to the end of day, and have brought my blood pressure down. I have taken blood pressure medicine for years but I am now able to take half the dosage I previously took.
