I have had the pleasure of working with Mariah as my personal trainer for the past year, and I can confidently say that she is the best trainer I've ever had. Mariah is not only knowledgeable and skilled, but she is also a great listener and truly cares about her clients' goals and progress.
From the very beginning, Mariah took the time to get to know me and understand my fitness goals. She designed a personalized workout plan that was challenging but achievable, and she was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. She also provided guidance on nutrition and lifestyle changes, which helped me to achieve my goals more quickly.
What I appreciate most about Mariah is her ability to motivate and inspire me. She never lets me give up on myself and always pushes me to be my best. She knows just how to push me out of my comfort zone and help me reach new levels of fitness and strength.
Mariah is a true professional, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their fitness and overall well-being. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, she will work with you to achieve your goals and become the best version of yourself. She's an amazing trainer and an even better person, and I'm grateful to have had her as my personal trainer.
If you're looking for a trainer who will truly care about your success, look no further than Mariah. She's...
Read moreShow Up Fitness Academy is by far the most exceptional school I have been encountered with. When I first got to school I was contemplating on quitting in the first two weeks and Chris literally saved me. He could have let me quit class but instead he had hope in me and saw potential; My life changed from that point on with his guidance. I went to the school having no understanding of any anatomy, kinesiology and training real life people . Chris had one of his trainers, Brett tutor me to help me understand the knowledge that he went over in class. I started sinking in all the information with Brett's guidance day by day. Apart of the internship at Show Up Fitness Santa Monica, I shadowed, and eventually taught their bootycamp classes to help build my confidence. I learned to train clients 1-1 and he also helped me a lot with the business side of things within personal training. Chris has built up my confidence not only through school but also in my personal life and for this I am forever thankful. I started from almost quitting class, to now working as a trainer with Chris's help. Chris is the type of person to go above and beyond his measures for anyone he possibly can help and I am forever grateful to have him as my teacher,...
Read moreI've wanted to change my career for quite sometime and when I met Chris, he motivated me to learn how to become a personal trainer and do what I truly love. I use to sit at a desk for 40+ hours (sometimes longer) at the sacrifice of my health. I searched how to become a personal trainer in LA and the Academy came up. I did some research and I like how he consults with a board of education (which are all Doctors, nutritionists, and Ph.Ds). He was nice enough to let me sit in the first few classes before I made any rash decisions, and I loved his teaching style. He's brilliant, funny, and a great teacher. I doubted myself in the beginning, but with his leadership skills, he was able to calm me down as he's taught a lot of trainers. I enjoyed all the workouts at his studio, going to the Santa Monica stairs, workouts on the Beach and UCLA track. When I graduated (Dec 2016) I felt comfortable training young, elderly, injured, overweight, athletes, and any sort of special situation. Chris teaches you how the human body works, at the end of his Academy, you'll be so far ahead of all the other trainers who take the NASM, NESTA, ACE, or IFFA cert at home / online. ...
