I was looking for someone who could get me out of my fitness runt while being positive, a good listener, and educational. Darlene was all of that AND MORE. Darlene CARES. Darlene focuses on the big picture. You may come for just fitness training, but she covers your mental health, fitness, and diet. She understands your goals and does weekly check-ins to ensure she can positively impact your journey. In our sessions, she explains top-level what the program is and goes into detail about the exercises and WHY we're doing them. After every set, she asks how it feels and adjusts accordingly. There were some days I was not happy with my progress, and Darlene listened. She provided great perspective and adjusted the program moving forward.

I've seen great results after training with Darlene. She helped me reach my fitness goals and made a positive impact on my confidence and self-esteem as a woman. Yes, I put in the hard work myself, but it's a huge plus to have a cheerleader. She made going to the gym and working out FUN again. I highly recommend Darlene!!

“Darlene Powell is the best group fitness coach I've ever worked with. She provides a great workout but is also totally supportive and really fun. She always remembers everyone and watches closely to make sure no one is getting hurt. The workouts are tough (in all the right ways) but she makes the time pass quickly with awesome encouragement, a killer soundtrack and detailed adjustments to make sure everyone safely maximizes the benefits. Her quote of the day at the end of class is legendary and always inspirational. Darlene has a heart of gold and a smile to match - I'd give Darlene 6 stars if they'd let me.”

“8-weeks of mindset and habit altering greatness. Darlene really made personal contact and helped coach me down 10 pounds in 8 weeks with diet alone and in a manageable format. From the phone calls to the step by step plan forming, she is someone I'd highly recommend. If you just trust the process and trust her input, your results will speak for themselves. The hardest part about this program was getting over my own mental hurdles and she was encouraging every step of the way.”

“I have the pleasure of working with Darlene Powell as my personal trainer. Darlene is very knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition and has taken an individualized approach to help me achieve the results I'm seeking. She makes the most out of each session by personalizing exercises to fit my long-term goals while also remaining flexible to adapt regimens based on my daily lifestyle needs.

Darlene also approaches fitness by looking both at the body and mind. I find that this holistic approach is what makes each training session so impactful and rewarding.

I would encourage anybody looking for a result-oriented, sustainable approach to transformation--both on the outside and inside--to choose Darlene for personal training.”

“I did an 8 week program with Darlene and I have nothing to say but great things about her. We started off each week with a call to set up realistic goals and calls to action for what exactly I was going to do and try to achieve in a week and I really liked how realistic we were with my goals and how it all worked with my schedule as I am a very hectic and busy person. Also at the beginning of each week in our call we would celebrate what I did achieve and come up with a plan for what I did not achieve and set myself up for success! Very easy to work with and accommodating would definitely recommend working with her!”

“Training with Darlene has improved my life in every way: mind, body and soul. She has transformed how I view fitness, wellness and nutrition. She empowers me to tackle exercises that scare me & push past my fears to build strength in a fun and sustainable way to reach my full potential. Darlene has coached me into the best physical and mental shape of my life- I am so grateful!”

Darlene reshaped my perspective on fitness and nutrition. She focuses on my form, programs tough workouts, and balances the need to accept ourselves as we are and embrace the hard work and consistency required to truly change. Leading with kindness and intention is easier said than done and Darlene truly walks that walk. She’s given me the tools to improve my heart, mind and body. I highly recommend Darlene for your fitness and nutrition goals.
