“I wanted to do something special with my teenage daughter. We decided that training together with a personal trainer would be fun, healthy and interesting. A dear friend had highly recommended Tricia and I had read about her in the Arizona Women Lawyers Association newsletter. Thus, the decision to train with her was easy. When my daughter and I first met with Tricia, I was impressed with the time she took to understand our training goals. We enjoyed her patience and experience. I also trained with her privately; she helped me prepare for my hike of La Malinche, a 14,600 ft volcano in Mexico. My training sessions were hikes in the preserves near her home, which was very convenient. During our hikes, I fondly remember our many discussions about life, work and family. Tricia has such enthusiasm and passion for her work, which I greatly appreciate. She puts her heart and soul into helping her clients. Thank you Tricia.” - Mary Dolores Guerra, Phoenix

“Selecting Starting Now Fitness for instruction on proper strength building exercises was one of my best decisions. Tricia listened carefully when I outlined my objectives, then she demonstrated and coached me through a well-planned selection of specific movements intended to meet each of my goals. I found her to be a patient, communicative, organized, generous, pleasant and detail-oriented instructor. I will continue to recommend her to anyone interested in improving his or her life through focused exercise training.” - Betsy Hamilton, Tempe

“Before Starting Now Fitness, I had great intentions — I was going to make it to the gym at least three times a week (uh huh, right). Training with Tricia helped me to keep my commitment to getting healthy and staying in shape. Every session left me more and more motivated, and I really liked seeing muscles develop where flab once flourished!” - Maureen P. Kane, Chandler

“I have worked with Tricia for one year and am really feeling – and seeing – a difference. I had never worked with a personal trainer before, but knew I wanted to work with someone who could be in touch with my specific needs and goals. I selected Starting Now Fitness because of the diverse and holistic approach it offered. Tricia works with the whole person, from nutrition to exercise to strength training. Although she instills discipline, Tricia is very patient and in tune with the needs and capacity of my body at any given time. She pushes me to give my best without causing me to incur or aggravate injury. I love the way Tricia mixes up my routine, and how she individualizes my training. Whether at her studio or in my backyard pool, my work outs with Tricia are consistently interesting and enjoyable. I highly recommend Tricia and Starting Now Fitness for anyone looking to improve their overall fitness or to focus on a specific area of training.” - Lori Voepel, Phoenix
