Testimonials

"Alysa's unique approach to individual skill development and our team conditioning has played an integral role in our success as one of the nation's best college basketball programs. She has a passion for helping people reach their goals and uses an empathetic and innovative approach that both pushes the players beyond their limits and keeps them motivated. It is no surprise to me that she was recognized as the top 30 under 30 in her profession."
Ryan McCarthy Head Coach, University of Alaska Anchorage |

"Alysa approaches her work with a wonderfully rare combination of humility and confidence, and her genuine desire to see others live healthier, fuller lives drives her to go above and beyond for each and every client. An enthusiastic, welcoming persona and easy-going nature make Alysa refreshingly relatable, and a keen sense of intuition enables her to adapt her methods of instruction and motivation in order to compel each person to perform at his/her best. As an accomplished athlete herself, Alysa offers a wealth of experience, and she gives particular attention to helping clients learn and perform movements correctly and safely. Overall, I've counted myself most fortunate to work with Alysa, and l look forward to seeing the ways her passion, knowledge and dedication pave the way for others to live more healthful lives! "

"I have coached and watched Alysa for over 10 years now in the arena of basketball. Her growth as a player was phenomenal and her growth as a coach is becoming the same. Her attention to detail, time and variety of drills that emphasize fundamentals is what I appreciate the most. I feel fundamentals are slowly losing its focus in the game as athleticism continues to be the focus of coaches. Alysa is able to give players the fundamentals while still challenging them to compete and improve at game speed. Her variety of drills keeps the players challenged and on their toes to keep getting better. Her attention to detail in footwork, shooting form and ball handling is excellent. This attention separates the good from the great. If you have a player who is motivated to get better and loves a hard workout where the coach is going to work on each and every one of your strengths and weaknesses, then Alysa is for you."

"Alysa is very knowledgeable, attentive, and professional. She's a lot of fun and will push you to achieve things that you didn't think were possible. I knew she was the trainer for me when I told her my goals and she responded, 'So you want to be a badass?' The work we do in the gym with her has greatly improved our running performance! You'll do great if you choose her as your trainer, she's wonderful. "

"Alysa is a top notch personal trainer and wellness educator. During her time with me at a weight loss and fitness camp for kids and teens Alysa demonstrated knowledge, compassion and an overall understanding of health and nutrition."

"If you are able to train with Alysa you will not be sorry! I have taken numerous classes and trained with many trainers, Alysa has all the qualities that you would want in a trainer. She is always positive, watches to make sure that you have proper form, pushes you, in a good way, even when you think you have nothing left. The best thing for me is that if you have any injury she can help you recover, make it stronger, and watches your cues to make sure you don't push too far! I love working out with Alysa and doing her workouts. They are hard, fun, and you feel amazing when you finish one! You will not find a better trainer!"
