I grew up pretty sedentary, didn't do sports, ate lots of fast food, etc. When I did try being active in college I injured my back and dealt with chronic pain and accepted the fact that I would always hurt. I finally started going to a chiropractor who suggested I needed strength/core training and referred me to Sarah. I was anxious about "working out" and almost cancelled my first appointment a couple times. She was kind, modified exercises to accommodate my back, encouraged me to keep going, and pushed me just enough. During sessions she shared tips and advice for becoming stronger, physically and mentally. I've been seeing her every week for over a year now and I feel so much stronger. My back rarely hurts, I've been able to hike and run around with my kids, and I feel more self confident in who I am and who I can become. Sarah has helped me reach goals for myself that I never thought possible. She continues to push and challenge me to improve, and I'm indebted to her for helping me see the potential in myself. (Age 45)

I love working out with Shabana at Bellator Fitness because I get amazing 1:1 personal training in a private setting without the worry of sharing equipment and common areas with others.

I truly feel that Shabana is not only a trainer but also my life coach and more importantly a friend that truly cares about me! She keeps me motivated and accountable throughout the week and my journey to improve my fitness and health would not have been this successful without her!!

She is also helping me get my wedding body ready for next month! (Age 38)

I love the one-on-one personal attention that Bellator Fitness offers. For someone like me who didn’t know how to properly use weights, or what to do, this is huge! Shabana is a great coach and mentor!

I decided to start working with a trainer because I needed help developing workouts that would help me achieve my fitness goals and I needed to be sure I was doing those exercises correctly with proper technique so I wouldn't injure myself.

The first time I  met with Sarah, I was impressed with the thoroughness of her questions. She really probed to understand my fitness goals, what I enjoyed, any injuries and/or physical restrictions, etc.

Her workouts for me are just as thoughtful and actually feel personalized and tailored to me! She keeps our workouts fresh, finding new routines which are safe for my body. I've had a couple different trainers in the past and everything always seemed very cookie cutter. She's great at pushing me to see my physical potential all while keeping things positive and fun. She's knowledgeable and takes her work seriously.

I started to see results and improvement in my strength and endurance after only a couple months. I would recommend Sarah and Bellator Fitness to anyone who is looking for a positive, experienced, effective trainer, with whom they can work out long term. (Age 39)

I really enjoyed the one to one gym atmosphere and having personalized routines that were tailored to my lifestyle. The gym and having Shabana as a personal trainer made working out fun and enjoyable and feel less intimidating. I was welcomed back into the workout scene, and each week I saw myself progressing with the routines given to me. I was taught proper form and Shabana really took her time teaching me that. The gym itself is very comfortable and not intimidating, it is very welcoming. Any day you come to workout, you’re going to be greeted with a smile and you’ll get right into the habit of training from there. (Age 21)

I absolutely love that this gym is strictly one on one. I have Shabana’s complete focus during workouts. Since I started training at Bellator Fitness three times a week with Shabana, I have noticed a huge increase in my strength, stamina, and endurance. As a hiker this is important, I can climb steeper hills and mountains, and hike more miles with fewer breaks to catch my breath or cool down. Hiring Shabana was one of the best decisions I’ve made regarding my health and fitness! I am pleased to say I am also down 25 pounds and really proud of myself for hiring a trainer to get me here and further.  (Age 50!)

I have been strength training with Sarah for two years. Over that time, I relied on her faith, encouragement, knowledge and experience to gain muscle for everyday living and lose over 75 pounds. She knows exactly what she is doing and set a program that met my ability and challenged me every single time. I consider myself lucky to have been referred to her and will be forever grateful to her for helping me find my way back to health.
