"Sonya-When I started training with you 4 years ago I was thin, but not strong. My goal was to have "muscles you can see even when I'm not flexing". Working with you, I saw results in 3 months, and a year later we competed together in a figure contest sanctioned by the National Physique Committee (see the "photo album"). It was a lot of hard work but a very rewarding payoff and sense of accomplishment. The techniques you taught me have become habits for a lifetime. You are an amazing trainer and a terrific friend. Thank you for serving our NAS Lemoore community!"

"I just have to tell you, I started buying fitness magazines and you know your business! A lot of the stuff that I did with you was in there. I started to reuse your routines and I incorporated some of the new stuff that I got from the magazines, so I have been strength training at least twice a week. I just have to tell you how much you have done for me. Because of you, I have my old self back!"

"Just wanted to let you know something that might 'make your day'. I saw Susannah today, and she is looking great. She mentioned she signed on to work out with you, and she's a new woman - definitely feeling a lot better about herself and sharing that feeling with others - extra smiles, a lot of enthusiasm, etc. It was wonderful to see the change - thanks to you.

"Sonya, we love ya and you know it!! Coming to the gym is the most exciting part of my day. It is my time and I cherish it! It is obvious that you love what you do, and for that I am thankful because it makes me feel inspired to try harder! Thank you!"

"We ran our PRT (Navy Physical Readiness Training) and guess what? I PASSED! I'm so excited! Thank you for everything that you have done for me. If it wasn't for you, I would probably be getting the boot out of the Navy. I appreciate it so much!"

"You will be happy to know... my abs hurt! They are killing me!"

"My husband is hurting! We did quads today, along with abs, etc. He's calling me 'Helga'. I had my daughter and husband doing camachos this past weekend. They thought it was so much fun during, but about three hours after, they were complaining. I'm amazed at how I'm able to breeze through three sets of those now. Thank you."

I am so excited about working out. It is great to have a cheerleader like you. Thanks so much!"

"I love you! I really do! I did a PT (physical training) test last weekend. I have taken five minutes off my two mile time. Three months ago I couldn't run one mile without stopping. I ran the full two without stopping, and instead of doing it in 30(+) I did it in 25. I shaved five minutes since starting with you again last month! I love you!"
