After 7 weeks I am almost entirely rid of the pain in my achilles tendon. I feel much more energetic and my posture has changed. The training far exceeded my expectations — and inspired me to become more active outside our sessions too.
I've had many personal trainers in my life — and very good ones — but Yessica is hands down the best. More than a trainer, she is a healthy habits coach. She gives 100% in every class, with a lot of warmth and pleasure.
Practicing sports was a huge part of my life before a complicated pregnancy with a lower back disc and pelvic pain. I didn't know where to start again. After 10 sessions the pain in my lower back is much less and I feel more confident.
With over 10 years of experience in Yoga and Pilates, I've rarely encountered such thoughtful and comprehensive care — before, during, and after the sessions. Yessica went above and beyond, truly tuning into my personal needs.

The change I've had in my body and mind in four months is surreal. My body got much more defined, I lost a lot of fat. What I love most is that she also helps with nutrition and lifestyle. These small details make all the difference.
I normally never like functional training — but now I am having regular classes with Yessica, only because she's so great. I can't believe I am starting to really like exercise.
In my 3rd month now and feel stronger, more energetic and flexible. Yessica is extremely knowledgeable, passionate, motivating and above all a joy to work with.
Her encouragement has given me the confidence to embed a structural workout routine into my life, continue getting good results and attain my goals. Professional and experienced, yet kind, patient and understanding.
I am not the type of person who likes exercising — I'm usually the one checking the clock. But with Yessica, time actually flies. Every session is tailored, challenging and fun.
Working with Yessica is one of the best decisions I've ever made. She knows her stuff, and she encourages you to keep going. I always leave her sessions with an amazing endorphin rush!
I felt results in my body from the very first class. She is really kind and inspires you to achieve the best version of yourself. Thanks for changing my mornings!
Yessica is highly engaged both professionally and personally and tailors her training to your specific situation. She's flexible yet persistent, ensuring you get the most out of yourself.
Every session leaves me feeling rejuvenated and at peace. Her caring nature shines through in her personalised attention to each student, ensuring that we all feel supported and encouraged.

"More than just a trainer. More like a health life coach. Completely personalised and adapted to my changing needs. It has changed my life. Yessica will have to make copies of herself because I am recommending her to all my friends."
Ricardo came in at 51 wanting to make a real change — not a temporary one. Over 7 months of consistent work across training, nutrition, and lifestyle, he did exactly that. Four sessions a week, every week.
Injury recovery
Where she started
Chronic achilles tendon pain, low energy, feeling tired most of the time. Unsure how to train safely around injury.
7 weeks later
Almost entirely pain-free. Stronger posture. Far more energetic. Inspired to move more in daily life — well beyond our sessions.
Post-pregnancy rehabilitation
Where she started
Active lifestyle halted by a complicated pregnancy — lower back disc herniation and pelvic pain. Didn't know where to begin again.
10 sessions later
Significantly less lower back pain. Regained confidence to train independently. Stronger, more mobile, and back to loving movement.
Body recomposition
Where she started
Looking to change her body composition but unsure about nutrition. Training without a clear direction or measurable progress.
4 months later
Significantly more defined and toned. Fat loss achieved. Now focused on muscle building with an integrated nutrition plan. Stronger than ever.
Habit building
Where he started
Wanted to build a sustainable training routine but had struggled to make it stick. Needed both accountability and a personalised approach.
Ongoing results
A structural workout routine fully embedded into his life. Clear goals, consistent progress, and the confidence to keep going independently.
Common questions
Most clients notice meaningful changes within 4–8 weeks — in energy levels, how they move, and how their body feels. Visible physical changes typically follow at 8–12 weeks with consistent training and nutrition. The honest answer: it depends on where you start, your goals, and how the programme is built around your life.
Yes, and this is actually one of the areas I specialise in. Many clients come with existing injuries, post-surgical recovery needs, or chronic pain. I research your specific situation, adapt every session accordingly, and progress carefully. I work with your diagnosis — not around it.
More often than not, people who don't like exercise just haven't found the right approach. Several of my longest-standing clients said exactly that before we started. When training is personalised, progressive, and doesn't feel like punishment — the relationship with movement changes completely.
That's exactly what the free discovery call is for. Most people arrive unsure — and leave with total clarity on what they actually need. It's a 30-minute conversation, no obligation, and no hard sell. Book directly via Calendly or send me a message and we'll figure it out together.
