KIND WORDS FROM OUR COMMUNITY

 

“I am so grateful to you and your morning class! What an incredible job you are doing and have been ever since I started coming to your classes with Jill last year. And now 8 months of online training—every day!! It's unbelievable how you just jumped in and got to it—always with a huge smile, brilliant attitude and incredible talent. I am amazed how you are able to work through the moves yourself all the while talking to us about our form and reps. And it's not just about our bodies... You feed our minds too with all your little snippets of advice and experience. So excited to see the progress with the new space in Seaside. It looks awesome, and I can't wait for us all to be working out together there too. Thank you for keeping me strong and sane through the last few months. I don't know what I would do without you.”

“I have to thank you, Jolie. The way you "jumped in" at the beginning of quarantine and rescued all of us with a little sunshine, love and mobility at 7:30 EVERY DAY—well, it was awesome. You kept my house (and I'm sure countless others) happy, healthy and strong...life goals for me.”

“I have been working with Jolie for about 3 years. I initially joined a friend for one of Jolie's small group sessions. I enjoyed it so much that I continued attending and then followed her to her COVID zoom classes. She is the complete package! Her classes are balanced with a blend of exercises geared to specific areas. When I say balanced I am also referring to her blend of personality, motivation, instruction and inspiration. It takes a lot of commitment for her to offer herself to her clients every morning with a little song and smile. I also appreciate her tidbits of nutrition and "mental health" information. These are trying times and to be able to have a set start to my day has been really helpful. I have also increased my strength and feel more toned than I have ever been. I would highly recommend working with Jolie, no matter what your physical fitness is! She rocks!”

“Thank you for inspiring, nurturing, and encouraging me 🥰🥰🥰. For the record, even though I can’t see any changes in my body, I can totally FEEL them, which is my main goal. I noticed the ways that I’m stronger, and I can feel my muscles through my skin, and my sister says she notices a difference! Also I wish you could see the amount of early morning belly laughs that you give me. I love you so much, sweet friend.”

“What sets Jolie apart from every other trainer is that she guides with her entire being. She takes the focus off the body and instead empowers the heart, breath, brain, bones, joints, ligaments, blood, balance, ego, soul, and the very essence of those lucky enough to have her in their life path.”

—Maureen / Beverly Hills / 56

 

We’d love to have you in class.

 

“Thank you for all your amazing energy—always, and especially in this time of COVID-19. I’m down 10 lbs since we talked last and I’m feeling so much better 🥰.”

“Jolie is Elektren. She is a power plant. She is electricity. The moment you decide to work with her you will feel her juice. That’s what happened to me and I can’t get enough. I now feel like a power plant too thanks to her! I have so much more mobility, flexibility and agility!  And I have my muscles back! And my strength has improved tremendously. It is, in every sense of the words, all good! Thank you for your expertise, your dedication and your inspiring and hilarious and motivating and honest personality.”

“Every time I notice that my body is doing something that used to feel challenging with ease, every time I can do something as simple as play with my daughter without getting exhausted, and every time I like the way my arms look for the first time since I was a teenager, I send you a little gratitude bomb from my heart. You’re providing such a valuable community service during this unprecedented time, and I would imagine that it takes a toll on you. But your humor, your honesty, and your fierce and powerful aura make me and all those whose lives you touch on a daily basis that much better for knowing you. Thank you.”

“I had a breakthrough today!! For SEVERAL years I have not been able to put any weight on my wrists AT ALL. Today I was able to do down dog from my hands rather than my forearms! 🎉 🎉🎉 This is huge! I credit you 100%. Not only in what you have taught me about how to build strength in my body but in instilling to not push myself and be mindful of my limitations. In doing that I believe I have built the necessary strength around those limitations to move forward! I’m SO encouraged!!! And literally mentally high. Thank you. Thank you for the “you” that you so freely share with us all. You are a delight and clearly a gift. Ever grateful 🙏🏻💚✌🏻.”

“Jolie’s dedication to our daily group classes during the pandemic (9 months and counting) has given us an embedded new habit. As lifelong outdoor fitness enthusiasts, we have never had a committed time for a personal daily indoor movement practice, until now. We now own and honor and make time for a session to happen everyday, 7 days a week. Before breakfast we do a half hour of movement on the mat—a combo of mobility, strength, and stretching. Never ever did that before but will ALWAYS do it now that we’ve created this new habit thanks to Jolie’s unwavering encouragement along with some zany delightful entertainment. Can’t sing enough praise for Jolie!”

—CHRISTINE / CARMEL VALLEY / 62


“Not only is Jolie a vivacious, knowledgeable, and joyful professional trainer, she is my sister and it is a pure joy to join her 5 days a week for the live ZOOM workouts! There were many movements I was not able to do when I started—multiple squats, planks, push-ups, swing sets, etc. But now I can get through the 30-minute workout with confidence and pride, yet always feel I can challenge myself when needed. All are compliments to Jolie’s unique, fun and diverse workouts! She always reminds us to pay attention to our physical state, and she provides us with additional information for our overall body and mind health and wellness. We end every session with a “Happiness Prayer,” by sending thoughts of happiness to others on a daily basis.”
