To Whom It May Concern,
I first met Yo at NYSC when I was an instructor for NYSC. I was always impressed with her friendliness, energy and the rapport she had with her clients, co-workers and club members.
When I decided to work with a personal trainer, Yo seemed like a perfect fit. And it has been that.
I have been working with Yo for over a year on a regular basis and I couldn't be more pleased. Not only is Yo extremely knowledgeable and articulate she approaches each session with a focus, purpose and design to benefit the client. Her creativity and ability to model any exercise is outstanding. She can make adjustments to fit the clients needs, ability level and energy level which results in a very productive and meaningful work out. However, one of her most outstanding qualities as a trainer is her ability to make corrections to ensure the client is getting the maximum benefit from that exercise. She is able to identify, explain and encourage the client in the most supportive and beneficial way. I learn something new in every session which I can take with me when I work out on my own. That is extremely important to me.
I have also started taking Yo's Yoga class on Sundays at W73rd Street. That class has become an anchor in my week. Not only is my body getting the full benefit of a wonderful yoga experience but I am able to focus and relax as Yo leads us through the mind/body connection. She sets the mood with appropriate, soothing music and adds a quartz lamp to the studio all of which contributes to the aura of calm and well-being. Once this mood has been established, Yo very gently and intelligently leads us through the exercises. As in her training sessions, she offers modifications and adjustments which give all participants a sense of accomplishment and benefit. Once again, her knowledge and ability to communicate and support her clients is outstanding.
Yo is the Complete Package.She can do it all. I'm extremely pleased and hope to keep this connection with Yo. It's been wonderful.
