"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. "
