TESTIMONIALS

“I am a 72 year old male living in San Francisco. My wife finally talked me into taking some physical fitness training from Claudia Berman. Although skeptical, I complied. And it has been a wonderful experience. I have improved mobility, much less daily pain in my movements and a renewed confidence in my in my locomotion. I’m dancing again!
Claudia has a very sensitive nature and can formulate a client’s stretches and exercises to the clients abilities. I have never had an accidental setback under her care and only steady improvement. Under her care, I feel exercised and lighter and refreshed after our sessions. I have learned which muscle or muscle groups preforms a particular function in my body, which muscles need work and how to strengthen that particular area.
In all, I feel more comfortable and capable in my daily routine. And I sleep better, too. I would totally recommend Claudia Berman as a personal trainer.”

“Claudia is an amazing personal trainer and I highly recommend her. I was referred to her by my physical therapist who knew of her extensive training and her expertise on injury prevention and recovery. Although I was in the midst of recovering from a lower back injury, Claudia was able to develop an exercise program that incorporated the use of weights, treadmill and elliptical machines, and yoga poses that helped me become stronger, more flexible and ultimately pain-free. It feels amazing to be able to work out again on a consistent basis. She is also the nicest person and she really cares about her clients.”

“I feel like I hit the jackpot when I found Claudia - she combines all the qualities I could dream of in a coach. First: knowledge. As a certified trainer, massage therapist, and professional singer (!) Claudia has firm understanding about how the human body works. Second: listening. Claudia's first question at the start of a session is always about how I am feeling and whether anything is especially worrisome or great going on in my life that I feel a need to share. She checks in about my exercise and energy levels between sessions. And she genuinely seems to care. Third: customization. Claudia always has a plan in mind that is customized for my personal fitness goals as well as any strengths or weaknesses she has observed. She always explains *why* she's giving me a particular exercise and, even more importantly, she is highly attuned to form so that I get the most out of an exercise and avoid injury. She even follows-up between sessions to see if I'm on track and to offer suggestions on how to incorporate exercises into my daily routine. I continue to recommend her to anyone who asks, and I can't imagine what my life would be like without her!”

“For me, the most wonderful things about Claudia as a trainer and (there are many!) is her ability to pay focused attention to me and my specific needs and desires along with her ability to communicate with clarity and precision. I appreciate her qualities as a trainer more and more as time goes on including her extensive and up to date knowledge. I recommend her without hesitation for these skills and her unfailing good humor and patience! She is a gem.”

“Claudia is simply the best at what she does. She is very knowledgeable and shares information clearly in detail. She pays very strict attention and is really committed. I think she has what all people have that are really great at something, and I am very happy that what she is great at, is so important for me. I am benefiting from all she brings to training. And although she is very serious, she’s also fun, communicates well, and remembers what to do for your individual needs. I think those who work with others could learn a great deal from observing her. I would recommend her to anyone without any reservation and feel like I was doing them a great favor.”
