I cannot say enough amazing things about Sheree! I have been training with her for two years, and she has completely transformed not only my fitness but my overall lifestyle. She is more than just a trainer—she’s a coach, a mentor, and a true inspiration.

From day one, she tailored my workouts to my goals, pushing me to achieve things I never thought possible. She helped me prepare for a Hyrox competition, guiding me through every step of my training with expertise and encouragement. But her support goes far beyond the gym—she also helps with nutrition, giving me practical meal and snack ideas that fit my goals while keeping me fueled and satisfied.

One of the things that sets Sheree apart is her genuine care for her clients. She sends motivational texts that keep me accountable and uplifted, making sure I stay on track even on tough days. She’s also incredibly easy to talk to, creating a safe and supportive space where I feel comfortable discussing not just fitness but personal struggles and victories.

On top of all that, she is unbelievably flexible with my nurse schedule. No matter how unpredictable my shifts get, she always finds a way to fit me in and make sure I never fall behind on my training. I am beyond grateful for that flexibility!

Thanks to her, I’m in the best shape of my life—both physically and mentally. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, passionate, and truly invested in your success, Sheree is the one. I couldn’t ask for a better trainer, and I highly recommend her to anyone ready to take their fitness journey to...

At the start of my camp I weighed 190lbs and 24% body fat. At the end of my camp I weighed 165lbs and 5% body fat.

I chose to work with Alyssa Schirmer in preparation for the IBJJF Brazilian Jiu Jitsu world Championships.

Throughout wrestling & MMA career i've been coached by some of the best in the world. So making the choice as to who was going to prepare me for one of the most important moments in my athletic career was taken very seriously. I watched trainers from a distance taking mental notes as to who I thought took there craft seriously, implemented functional movements within the sessions, and new when to push the pace to achieve results. At the end of my assessment I chose Alyssa. Not only did she meet my personal requirements but she's also a professional athlete her self.

I trusted Alyssa to run my 12 week camp to prepare me for Worlds and was in the best shape of my life entering that tournament. I was forced to go up a weight class because of an upper respiratory infection, but because of how well Alyssa prepared my body I was still able to place 3RD IN THE WORLD!!!!

Alyssa used corrective exercise to address some weaknesses of mine, and functional movements that made me explosive. We also focused on creating muscular stability. All of which were sport specific for me. I can't thank Alyssa enough for her efforts.

Thank you Emerge & Alyssa for helping me...

Two years ago, I reached out to a personal trainer at Emerge Fitness with the simple goal of learning how to use gym equipment. I had always felt intimidated by the gym environment and just wanted to feel comfortable navigating the space. But after my first few training sessions with Sheree, I realized I wanted to keep going--and keep getting stronger, both physically and mentally.

Sheree is not only an incredible trainer—she’s become a true friend and is genuinely one of the kindest people I know. Her positive energy, unwavering motivation, and dedication shine through in every single session. She has this amazing ability to meet you exactly where you are while still pushing you toward your full potential. On my hardest days, she’s kept me accountable and reminded me why I started. And on the best days, she’s celebrated every win right alongside me. She also knows when to call me out--especially when I try to justify my love for Costco cake.

The results I’ve achieved with Sheree have far exceeded what I thought was possible—not just physically, but in my confidence and mindset as well. I’m so grateful to have found her. She’s got a...
