TESTIMONIALS: Boot Campers
"Our six-week Winter Boot Camp was a great success - our motley crew of 16 (20% of our organization) men and women ranged in age from early 20s to early 50s and in fitness level from those getting back into working out after years of hiatus to those that regularly participate in races and triathlons. From administrative assistants to programmers to managers, directors and the CFO, we all went into the first session feeling it might be a little weird working out with your co-workers. However we left the first session with our mantra - "no one is looking at anyone else, we're all just trying to stay alive!" It may be hard to imagine, but Nina built us bootcamp workouts that allowed for everyone to work at their own maximum capacity, and in a way that promoted collegialism and friendships. Not only are we all in much better shape (physically and mentally), it has helped strengthen our office environment and collaboration across departments. We're even continuing our bootcamp workouts with staff-led workouts and now even more people want to get involved. Forget retreats and pizza lunches, bootcamp is the answer to a well-functioning office."

"There was a time in my life that I was a physically fit, competitive, athlete - about 50 pounds ago. Sixty pounds ago...Anyway, I needed to find some regular physical fitness routine that I could slide into easily, but the term "boot-camp" conjured images of Lee Ermey screaming at me about my major malfunction. I'm a sensitive guy and was worried about suffering even deeper blows to my self-esteem from trainers more interested in inflating their egos than helping me. As it turned out I needn't have worried one bit. Nina is friendly and supportive and encouraging. She fosters a strong sense of camaraderie and offers targeted individual coaching that really enhances your results and spurs you to greater achievement than you thought possible. She combines flexibility with her deep knowledge to fashion workouts from odd spaces (such as our auditorium) that still work muscle groups in an appropriate progression. The total experience exceeded my expectations."
