"I had never worked with a personal trainer before and I didn’t know what to expect. Donna
listens to my goals and puts together personalized workouts that keep me moving in the right
direction. She has taught me many techniques that have improved my overall health,
strength and fitness. Plus she makes the process fun! I’m glad I made the decision to work
with Donna."

"When Donna announced she had taken the necessary classes and received certification in
body strengthening, I was excited because I knew she would take the same qualities and
strengths she has in dance into this new segment of her life. God is good!!! My body requires
more than just the techniques of dance, it also requires strengthening and the balance to be able
to effectively execute dance choreography. With her strength classes, you can be assured that
your body will be toned, strengthened and ready."

Testimonials
"I am so thankful for my time with Donna! Although, I’ve always loved
fitness and exercise, I knew there were many things to learn. Donna
shared with me from her knowledge in the area of pilates and interval
training, and she worked to tailor a workout for me that would fit it with
my mini-marathon training. It was also a workout that I could do at home
when things were too crazy to get to the gym (I have 3 young children). It
was such a blessing to see Donna’s perspective of making the most of
the abilities God has given us in our bodies as opposed to the typical
motive of just “looking good”. I am blessed by Donna’s passion for this
ministry, and I’m so thankful for the things I learned from her."

"I only recently got into exercising in the last year. And although I'd joined a gym and had really enjoyed
yoga, a Pilates class seemed really hard core. I'd heard about the great results with Pilates but also that it
was so hard. I just wasn't sure I was up to it. Plus there is the whole thing about trying something new
and its different and you worry you'll be the one in the class singled out repeatedly for doing it wrong.
Well forget all of that! Donna made me feel incredibly at ease - when an exercise was too hard she
showed me variations so that I could still get a benefit. The hour just flies by and I never was too sore to
the next morning. Needless to say the results were incredible. My waist and belly - the core group - had
benefits within the first few weeks. And now when I look in the mirror while we exercise our legs I can
actually see my thigh muscles.Yes, real muscles! Donna is so caring and I love that we start each session
with a prayer. Donna doesn't stop at being the class instructor - she really cares about your life and how
things are going in and outside the gym. I can't recommend this class enough! Like they say - just do it! "

"Donna Martelli teaches with a blend of confidence and grace that nurtures students while
inspiring them to learn. She pursues excellence and takes us on her journey- sometimes
seeking, sometimes stretching and sometimes exploding into joy. Her class provided a
wonderful outlet to me as I sought healing in my body. She patiently came alongside and led me
step by step to a stronger, healthier me. I particularly love how she blends spirituality into the
physical world. A moment of excellence while working out is like feeling the sunlight of God’s
presence on my face. It warms me and lifts me to a place beyond work- to a place of radiance. "
