Testimonials

"I have never had such a dramatic change in my physique and fitness level! Teresa uses agility training, endurance work, and coordination exercises that have really brought my workout to the next level."
- Dr. Heidi (Chiropractor)

"Before Teresa I was not much interested in personal training, but a little back pain and a pot belly led me to her, and I’m thinner, stronger, healthier and happier for it. Thanks, Teresa! See you next week at the Park."
- Bill Ratner ABC-Television

"Training with Teresa is not a work-out, it's definitely NOT easy, but having that much fun can't be work."
- Creston Baker, Business Development, Chicago Title

 

"Teresa pushes me in ways I simply wouldn't do on my own and it makes the whole process really effective - as a result, I am able to spend less time working out - and still see better and quicker results. Her (Teresa's) fusion classes and her personal training sessions are not only the fastest way I have found to get toned up - they are also the most fun."
- Catherine, Actress

"I love running and snowboarding, but after years of neglect from sitting at a desk, any time I would jump into either activity I would get shin splints and sore knees respectively, 100% of the time. It was enough to keep me from getting any significant exercise for years on end. Once I found Teresa's morning class that was never an issue again. Her combination of forward, backward and lateral exercises conditioned my body to handle any activity. After about two weeks of training with her I also benefited from bountiful energy, and would find myself running on the days in between, enjoying the pain-free exercise. After only a few months with Teresa, and I'm back in shape, better than I have been in 10 years."
- Bryan Konietzko, Co-creator of "Avatar: The Last Airbender"

"Thank you Teresa for helping to transform my body! I have never in my life been athletic so I was very nervous to start training with you, but I am so glad that I did. My body feels amazing and I am much more confident in my body's ability and strength. I actually look forward to working out with you every week, which I can't say I have ever felt before. You keep me entertained with you great personality and the challenging workouts. Every week it is something new, I don't know how many tricks you have up your sleeve but they seem to be never ending! I know that you really are passionate and care about my health. Thanks again!"
- Jessica LeRoy, Marriage and Family Therapist, LA

"Teresa is a fun and joyous physical trainer who is an artist with her commitment to her client’s physical development. I’m 33 and have never fully engaged myself physically thinking I could never do the things Teresa trains you to do. I’m five weeks in and I’ve gone from a 36 waist to a 32, I’m beginning to see the body I’ve always dreamed of taking shape and form, I now know what core strength is, my wife says she married a hottie who’s getting hotter and the value of self confidence I now have within my body is impacting every area of my life. Every time I think I’m not or I can’t Teresa turns that around. She has her own paradigm for fitness and it’s a blessing to live it every time I workout."
- Jonathan Jedeikin, Life Coach and Business Consultant

"I am not a morning person. But working out on Tuesday and Thursday mornings always puts me in a good mood and gives me more energy. There is no other workout like Teresa's - it's totally unique and reminds me of recess. Teresa's creativity and energy make the class fun and the hour fly by..."
- Tamar Tamler, Program Director, Los Angeles

"As I was jogging beside the Silverlake reservoir today, a rockin’ biker chick walking her dogs says to me, “You have a REALLY nice body.” And Teresa gets all the credit. Thanks for being such a great trainer!"
- David Kelly, Chef David, www.ChefDavid4u.com

"I really don't like working out. I get bored, I'm not as motivated as I should be, and I dislike the pain. Working out with Teresa has been great for me though. She keeps things moving, makes me focus on form, and gets rid of the monotony of it all. And she makes me laugh."
- Nikunj Chokshi, Research Fellow, Children's Hospital Los Angeles

"If you need some shaping up for summer or want to improve your athletic conditioning, Teresa is your woman!"
- Felicity Murphy, LA Photographer

"I'M TOTALLY REENERGIZED WITH FUSION -- My typical workouts started to feel so routine that I could have gone berserk staring at the clock on the elliptical. Then I found the "Fusion" group and my future in fitness was saved. Literally. Teresa's "Fusion" workouts are different than anything I've ever done (and I've done um all). She is challenging in a fun and unique way that keeps me motivated and sore - it's a good pain of course. I encourage anyone in need of a new workout attitude give "Fusion" a try."
- Melissa Kennedy, Documentary Producer, LA

”Innovative, challenging and encouraging. Teresa succeeds in keeping the workout fresh and different which not only prevents plateau but stops things from becoming too routine. She pushes when you feel like you cannot be pushed further and leaves you with an amazing feeling of accomplishment. Her personable nature and vast knowledge of her craft makes you feel comfortable and safe.”
- Courtney Mackin, Dreamworks

"Thanks to working out with Teresa, I can tell the difference on the scales (which I don't really care about), on my body (I'm starting to get the definition in my abdominal and rib area again), and in how I feel (I feel stronger, have better endurance, and feel better about myself). I like the fact that I don't have to go to the gym to work out, and I feel I get a much better workout from the different things she has me do (i.e. agility, balance, etc) then what I was getting when I did my own workout on the equipment at the gym."
- Valerie Jones, Argentine Tango Dancer, Los Angeles

"Teresa's fusion fitness group is a workout I actually look forward to. It's a great way to start the day. I leave the workout covered in sweat, and astonished at how fast the hour and fifteen minutes flew by. Friends have commented on how great I look and I'm noticing muscles where I didn't even know they existed. My overall energy and stamina have greatly improved."
- Grant Coutney, Actor, Los Angeles

"TAV Lifestyle is about making working-out fun and rewarding. The explosive nature of the work-out is a great tool for me to stay in shape to do the things I love: Snowboarding, Skiing, Hiking, & Bike riding. Thanks, T."
- Jesse Morrow, "Smoke" Editor, Los Angeles

-Amy Adkins, San Francisco

- Beverly Randell, San Francisco

“Teresa handed me a serious beating, and I loved every minute of it. My speed and endurance on the trail have greatly increased. She rocks.”
- Matt Browne; Mountain Biker, San Francisco

"I went from flab to fab! Teresa’s workouts strengthen my entire body. She developed a complete training program for me, both with her and during my travels. Now my legs and stomach don’t jiggle when I walk.”
- Mary Ann Biewener, Actress

"After working with Teresa i'm in the best shape of my life! She manages to guide, motivate and push me to be the best I can be. She makes working out effective & fun. Teresa doesn't walk her talk she runs it!"
- Morris Nash, LA film producer
