Stacia Irwin has been my personal trainer for about one year. I believe that she is head and shoulders above other personal trainers and would highly recommend her to anyone starting a personal training program.
Stacia began my training program with an in-depth questionnaire and personal interview, focusing on my medical history, physical condition and fitness goals. She then tailored a specific program for me based on this information. (Unlike the cookie cutter programs that many trainers use.) A personalized approach was important for me because I have had major back surgery, causing gait and balance problems. Stacia was very creative and knowledgeable in putting together an exercise program that did not stress my back, helped improve my balance, and strengthened the muscles needed for balance, standing and walking. Furthermore I recently had surgery that required me to (temporarily) stay off my feet. Once again Stacia used her knowledge and creativity to put together exercises to work on strength, core, flexibility and balance which I could do without being on my feet. Quite remarkable!
During our training sessions Stacia works with me on a one on one basis, demonstrating the exercise and then coaching and correcting me to insure that I am doing it correctly and getting the full benefit of the exercise. This again is quite different my experience with other trainers, who often demonstrate an exercise and then send you off to do it on your own, never checking on whether you are doing it correctly.
Finally each session with Stacia is a little different as she focuses on different ways to work the targeted muscle groups. This also keeps the workouts interesting.
In summary I would believe Stacia focuses on her client’s personal needs and problems like few other trainers. And has a unique talent in putting together exercise programs specifically designed to address these needs. I can recommend her as a personal trainer with complete confidence.
