TESTIMONIALS

"April's expertise in NKT and P-DTR has helped greatly with back and hip pain that I was experiencing. I was in so much pain that I couldn't stand up straight until I saw April. I felt immediately better after one session and my body became less constricted. The pain was almost completely gone. I followed up with a couple more sessions that helped even more. April truly understands the complexity of the human body and is on a mission to help her clients move better, feel better and live a healthier lifestyle. She is constantly educating herself about all aspects of anatomy and nutrition and won't rest until she understands the root cause of an individual's problem. I am so impressed by her determination and quest for knowledge. April is truly a healer."

"I appreciated April's approach to recovery, by identifying the root cause we will build a game plan that allows for long-term recovery."

"After a thirty year career in the military, my body was used to brute force fitness: eat whatever I wanted, push weights around and run long and fast, easy-peasy; I was good to go. When I hit 50, however, my tried and true technique failed and I ended up in the hospital and had to find another way…This is where April came in. She is an Olympic weightlifter and former sponsored powerlifter and a trainer; a practitioner of NKT and P-DTR; a nutritionist and a life coach, April has lots of tools and knows how apply them. Her holistic approach to wellness opened my eyes to what my body—as well as my mind and soul—is capable of. I highly recommend her."

"April is one of the most knowledgeable bodywork professionals I know. In addition to her many professional certifications and accolades, she is kind, intuitive, intellectually curious and extremely competent. I can not recommend her highly enough."

"April relieved my backpain in 3 hours over 2 sessions. She also helped significantly reduce my knee pain (four knee surgeries). She uses a combination of medical and scientific techniques that I don't pretend to understand, other than to say it's muscle response and mapping how various parts of the body compensate for injuries. If you live in "DMV" or travel to D.C. and have muscle or joint pain, go see her. You will be glad you did!"

"I have been working with April for several months and I could not be more pleased with the results! April's impressive skills and experience with corrective manual therapy using NeuroKinetic Therapy (NKT) and P-DTR have directly improved my injuries and aches. I have greater range of motion, pain relief, improved muscle relaxation and reduced tension. I feel April is truly treating the root of my pain rather than just the symptoms. The results are fast and long lasting! In addition to her skill, April is also a compassionate practitioner who truly listens to her client's needs. My sessions with April have provided pain relief that traditional medicine was unable to address."

"April is my go-to resource whenever I have an injury or nagging aches/pains. She continues to keep me healthy throughout my weightlifting training. April is an expert at her craft and genuinely cares about her clients and providing them the best service possible."

"I've worked with April for years and have found her to be the most knowledgeable, focused and creative personal trainer I've known or seen. As time has passed I've referred dozens of friends and associates to April given her unique set of skills and client-focused approach. April helped me get stronger and to recover from surgery and injury as well. I cannot recommend her highly enough."

"I highly recommend April as a professional physical fitness consultant and a master personal trainer. April served as my personal trainer and her expertise and persistence in this capacity has been instrumental in my pursuit of improving my health and well-being. Due to her training methods and nutritional guidance I was able to lose over 20 pounds safely and vastly improve my physique. I have witnessed April’s training methods with other clients and note she is able to adapt her routines to match the specific needs of each client. April's innovative workouts are matched by a wonderful sense of humor, and her vigorous drive is inspirational. I would not hesitate to consult April for any future exercise projects and am pleased to say that she would be an asset to any body fitness program."

"April is a fabulous trainer and I can't say enough about her!! April worked with me for a couple of years at Sport and Health until I moved out of state. She crafted the workouts to fit my individual goals and found creative ways to work around my tricky shoulder and knee pain/injuries. I definitely saw results... weight loss, increased strength, muscle tone. She has a great way of mixing things up so the workouts were never boring. That's key for me! If I'm bored I won't stick with it. And on top of all that, April is just a fun person to be around! I wish I could clone her so I could train with her in Denver!"

“It has been more then a year now that I have been working with April as my personal trainer. I have had other trainers in the past, but none of them were as knowledgeable, skilled and experienced as she is. I have been able to do strength training that seemed so out of my league, but April has made it a reality. She also makes working out a fun experience because she is always so upbeat and optimistic. I highly recommend April to anyone who wants to physically change their life… to become the person they dream about becoming in their fantasies and make that into a reality!”

"April is an incredible trainer, personable and knowledgeable about the human body and nutrition. I have worked with April since April, 2009 every week and am pleased with my results. For any fitness goal, I highly recommend hiring April as your personal trainer!"

"I first came to April six months before my wedding day. I'd never been in a gym before and was severely overweight. Using a unique combination of strength training and aerobics, I was able to improve my flexibility and strengthen my core. Best of all, I was in terrific shape when I walked down the aisle. I continued to work out with April weekly for about a year. Today, I still use the techniques she taught me then. I was very intimidated about working out as I am far from a "gym rat" by nature. However, she worked on a program that never took me too far from my comfort zone but always pushed me a little further each time. Her upbeat personality and extraordinary patience made for a very pleasant experience. Thanks to April...I no longer loathe exercise!"

"April always gives 110% when working with personal training clients. She has a great depth of knowledge and experience, and she builds genuine connections with everyone she works with, making her a strong and reliable member of the team. I could not recommend her more as an employee, a collegue and a personal trainer."

"I have been training with April for several years. I consider her not only my trainer, but my Health Coach. She works with me on all aspects of my nutrition, health and fitness. She is a specialist in working on body trigger points, NKT (muscle testing), techniques in breathing and nutrition."

"April is awesome! She does not only help you with your condition, she will also teach you how to listen to your body!"

"Not only will she fix you, she will teach you everything -- that's why I love working with April."
