“I first met the lovely Bryna close to 10 years ago in Los Angeles. She’s everything you want in a trainer. She’s passionate, committed, knowledgeable , challenging, supportive and wildly in tune with everything that is positive in this world. Her approach is keeping the mind, body and soul all in check and in tune with each other. She has taught me that it isn’t about just being physically strong, it’s also about mental strength. Her spirit is infectious, her training sessions are super challenging, and she has the best outlook on life. For me, she isn’t just a trainer, she’s a friend and at times, a life coach :). We meet people along the way who have a massive impact on the direction in life we are going and I can honestly say Bryna has been one of those people for me.”

“I’ve been working with Bryna for nearly a decade, in group settings as well private sessions. Her personally designed workouts are suited to my individual abilities and needs. She knows my limits and she pushes me right up to them, but never beyond. She’s exactly the right balance of what I need in a trainer. She motivates me. She knows how to be firm and encouraging without being overbearing, and never belittling or demeaning. She genuinely cares about my wellbeing, checking in on my mental as well as physical health, and her workouts provide strength training for both. She corrects my form and demonstrates sets even though we train remotely. I work a very physical job, and I owe my lack of injury to her, because she’s trained me how to properly move and engage my body.'“

“Bryna has had an immense impact on my life. I’ve always been a person who tries to lift as much as I can and push it to the max. Intense hiit classes, max reps, and little rest. That mindset has certainly led to some improvement, but I’ve plateaued the last couple of years.
I was looking for a break
Bryna, in our first couple of meetings, emphasized things that I was aware of but had not taken too seriously. Functional strength, breathing, rest, mobility, myofascial realse, and balance across workouts. I was admittedly a little skeptical but realized that whatever I was doing on my own wasn’t getting me to where I wanted to go. I might as well give this new approach a try.
I’m very happy I did. Since working with Bryna, I’ve made measurable gains, I feel more mobile, and limber. I’m lifting, running and swimming. Getting proper rest, and not feeling run down. I have also lost an inch and a half off my waist!
Bryna has revolutionized how I view exercise and fitness, and crystallized why going as hard as possible 6-7 days a week is actually a detriment (at least for me!).
I’d recommend Bryna to everyone who wants to set themselves up for long term success, and make a great friend along the way.”
Liam Hanlon - Managing director
“As a physical therapist and former tennis player and track runner, I knew what I needed in a coach: someone who could challenge me, inspire me, and take me to the next level. Bryna has done exactly that and more. Physically, she’s helped me reach levels I didn’t think were possible, integrating breathwork to lift heavier, and weaving in meditation and mobility to bring clarity and balance. She checks in consistently, not just to track progress, but to make sure I'm truly okay. She’s helped me shift my mindset in powerful ways, which has helped improve not only my fitness but also my relationships with my family, friends, and patients. Bryna is far more than a coach. She’s a mentor, a friend, and someone I continue to learn from every day. This journey with her has been one of constant growth, and I’m so grateful to be on it.”
Abbey Roberts - Neurologic Clinical Specialist
“I met Bryna in a strength class one Saturday morning and instantly knew I wanted her to coach me. Her energy, passion, and knowledge around strength, mobility, and longevity were exactly what I wanted and needed. Her workouts are challenging and have proven to me I’m capable of more than I ever dreamed possible. Each week, I look forward to pushing myself and leveling up. As someone who solely focused on distance running, she’s completely shifted my mindset around fitness and provided me a space to grow and learn. Since working together, my running has improved immensely and has become much more efficient. I now look forward to challenging myself in new and different ways and sharing the wins with her!”

“Wow… I am truly floored by how much Bryna’s coaching has transformed my body and my life. I am an ex-dancer and chronic over/under exerciser who has had a host of very serious injuries and surgeries due to my overuse of, and disconnection from, my body. I have been to all of the exercise classes, watched all of the YouTube videos and taken many a private with several personal trainers. Nothing has transformed my body and mind like working with Bryna.
Bryna’s coaching style is honest and to the point while also filled with love and empathy. She teaches you how to be in YOUR body and connect to its needs. Her innovative training style not only transforms the way you look, but it retrains you and your body to focus on longevity and mobility; which will keep you moving for years to come.
She truly is a HEALTH coach. Focusing on your overall wellbeing and bridging the gaps that might be missing. Highly, highly recommend for anyone who is ready to take the health of their mind, body, and spirit seriously. Trust me… it’s worth it!”
Atlee Feingold - Actress / entrepreneur
“Bryna is more than a trainer, she’s a motivator, coach & friend. She goes the extra mile to check in on you. She truly creates workout programs specific to your individual needs. She always shows up 110 % and inspires me to do the same!”
Kristen McGee NYC - Pilates and Yoga Instructor
“I have been working with Bryna for over 3 years. She’s definitely one of the highlights of my week even as I remotely work out with her from my quarantined headquarters in Kentucky. Not only is she like a mentor to me, she always delivers a fun workout that is uplifting as it is challenging. Her Rehab classes are combined with a positive mindfulness that I carry with me throughout the day. I am thankful that I’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with Bryna for my fitness regimen and am grateful to now be able to call her my dear friend.”
