Testimonials

  • "Christine’s approach to fitness is so refreshing and liberating. She has no preconceived notions on what your body can do. Her goal to make you go further than you think is possible and then push you some more. After years of complete inactivity, I was nervous I could achieve any real fitness goal. But with her guidance, persistence, and overall charm, I found myself surprised by how much I could do! If you had told me a year ago, I could deadlift and kickbox, I would have laughed you out of the room. But I can and so can anyone else! There is no limit in the KEGBOX!"

  • "As a woodworker, I use my body all day every day and my fitness is not just important for my health, but also my career. I pursued regular strength training on my own for about 9 years before training with Christine. I sought her out because despite gaining strength with my workouts, I had joint issues and back pain. I wanted professional guidance on maintaining durability for the long haul. Christine's diverse fitness background appealed to me and my goals Within about 6-8 weeks after starting, I felt a big difference. Now, about eight months later, I am probably in the best shape of my life. I feel stronger, I have no joint or back pain. And I can do things I couldn't do before. Christine is a consummate professional; a master of her craft; and brings good energy to every session. My workouts are always a high point of my week."

  • "Christine's personal training made me a better athlete. Since working with her, I have developed lasting gains that have led to me running faster and pain-free, in addition to reaching my strength goals. Christine loves and believes in all bodies, no matter what their starting fitness level. She has a holistic, functional approach to strength work suitable for all ages, sizes and abilities. She is a patient instructor, and was willing to work with me to make sure I understood each exercise — and willing to modify if they weren't working with my body. "

  • "I am an avid yogi. However, I had been practicing yoga for many years without significant progress due to past injuries. Since starting training with Christine at Keg Box fitness, about a year and a half ago, I have increased my overall strength and have experienced progress in my yoga practice. I love working out with Christine because she is so knowledgeable about body dynamics, and how to intentionally build and develop strength for optimal physical health and to enhance my yoga practice. She uses strategies from all of her areas of practice (Yoga, Pilates, Kick boxing, and strength training) to develop an exciting and effective training program just for me. Not only is working with her helping me reach physical goals but it’s also a lot of fun! Thank you, Cristine for being such an amazing, thoughtful, and caring trainer."
