Service: Dance fitness class instruction at a gym
Dafne teaches a dance fitness class at my gym called Dance Feeder, and it’s amazing. She’s patient, has a very good attitude, does a proper warm-up, and it’s a good time and we sweat - I wish I can dance like that. There are two classes right now - Monday at 6 and Thursday - and she even asked everyone about the schedule to make it work, plus she starts on time but is flexible if the group chat says folks are running late. Price feels very affordable, and we’re even learning a routine for an 80s and 90s party where the DJ will play our song and we’ll all jump in like a little mob dance; she switches between Portuguese and English which helps.

Service: one on one training with Fabio
I've been training with Fabio at Turma Consensual LDA for over five years, and it's honestly been a great experience. Fabio is exceptionally empathetic and knowledgeable about nutrition, motivation, and physiology. He really understands when to push me and when to match my pace, always encouraging that extra step. It's not just a linear approach with him; he thinks outside the box. My daughter and husband also train with him, which speaks volumes about our trust in his methods. The studio atmosphere is welcoming; the staff are friendly and the equipment is top-notch. Fabio's intelligence shines through in how he personalizes our sessions and stays informed through constant research – I can't recommend him enough! Competitively priced. he came to our house during the pandemic. I trust him

Service: Personal fitness training sessions for the client's son
I hired Nicola for fitness instruction for my son. It’s just the beginning - we’ve had two or three sessions - but she has been very professional and thorough. She is very flexible about where she teaches, and what she advertises is true. So far this is my impression and I’m happy to keep going.

Service: Personal training sessions for weight loss and strength improvement
I started working with Tiago after trying his group classes at my gym because his workouts were well planned and he is calm and quietly motivational, not shouty. We trained once a week from around December or January until June, and he taught me to use equipment I would never touch like the sled, wrote me a personal workout plan in Excel for non-session days, and talked through nutrition. I wanted to lose weight and get stronger, and he kept me going through the gloomy winter, super organized, on time, and easy to coordinate with on WhatsApp, even coming in on what should have been his day off. Price felt fair, and I liked that he really knows the science of how the body works, which made our sessions make sense.

Service: Online 1:1 workouts focusing on weight loss
Working out was never my thing, but Andrea changed that for me. I've been training with her once a week for a year, and it's helped me feel stronger and more dynamic. Even though we do our sessions online while I'm in Paris, her attention to detail makes every session effective and engaging.

Service: Personal training
Finding someone who truly understands my unique needs has been transformative. Ricardo tailors each session around my injuries, focusing on building strength safely, and I've seen noticeable improvements in my chest and arms. His patience and the personalized workout routine have given me the best results compared to past trainers.
