Brennan is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and consistent. He knows how to motivate without being intimidating, and he truly cares about his clients' long-term progress. It's not just about workouts--it's about building healthy habits and sustainable change. If you're looking for a personal trainer in Danville who is committed, professional, and genuinely invested in helping people improve their lives, I highly recommend Brennan and Strive Fitness. We're really grateful for the impact he's had over the years.

I wanted to shift to…read morestrength-based exercise and have a tailored program to age healthy, feel more grounded in my body, and achieve some cool goals (like pull ups) with professional guidance. Amber helped me get all of that--and more! After about a year of working with her, my body no longer aches (I had "bad" knees from martial arts), I have more mobility, I can do proper push ups, I'm gradually lifting heavier weights, I feel more settled in my body, and I look and feel stronger! It's easier to move through life, physically and mentally. I've seen Amber move from a shared gym to a small private gym to the current larger gym, and it's no surprise her client and coach list is growing. She's fantastic. Bri is a delight to work with as well! If you're looking for a safe space to start training or pick it up after time off, I strongly recommend checking out Divergent Fitness!

By serving only women, they've created a safe place where one can walk in feeling welcome instead of self-conscious. I am new to strength training but Coach Amber and Coach Bri immediately made me feel comfortable and safe as they taught me proper form for each move - using simple and clear directions. They know their stuff and their goal is to empower you to do this on your own. I have such an engaging time that the hour-long session feels like ten minutes! Who knew strength training could be so fun? They are thorough - from warm-ups to strength training to gentle stretching. They keep logs of your workouts and enable you to add the workouts you've done at home. They adapt to any injuries or sensitive areas to make sure you can still show up without hurting yourself. They understand anatomy and protect you during training with their vast knowledge of muscle groups and how everything works. They both show incredible kindness and encouragement that lifts my spirits every time I see them. As a 52-year old woman in late perimenopause, my goals are focused on protecting muscle and guarding against osteoporosis. I want to age with mobility - hiking up hills and lifting my own luggage when I travel. I am learning moves like trap bar deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts, squats, bench rows, and other terms that once seemed so foreign to me. Now I feel more knowledgeable, more empowered, and more excited to embrace this as part of who I am! They make me feel like a badass!

We decided to put our daughter into basic level classes here. The first (and only) month, the level…read more1 teachers were rude. Not explaining any of the moves, getting visibly frustrated with our daughter when she wasn't doing the movements just from hearing what to do on her SECOND week there. Mind you this was her first experience doing anything like this and had just turned 5. Then when the teachers (yes, plural) would get down on her level to show her, they'd aggressively grab her leg or arm and move it fairly rough to the position they wanted her in. They did this also with the split stretch -- which again, she'd never done before. I went and asked if they were supposed to know anything before this class because the way they were acting towards her was ridiculous. I told the front desk girl about it and she was surprised and brought it to the owners. My daughter cried when we got into the car, saying her teachers didn't like her and she didn't want to go back. The next class, she spoke to me and said that the teachers that were treating her like that were spoken to and it shouldn't happen again. That entire class she was there for that day, they would point at her and laugh (THE TEACHERS) when she was trying to do the movements, look at her after falling and roll their eyes and walk away. It was a NIGHTMARE. We never went back.

Well after spending non-refundable money and time - my opinion of VC have changed drastically since…read morestarting, and sending our friends there (who are also on the fence about leaving). The teaching staff (at least for Level 1) has gone downhill since we started. My daughter has been in Level 1 prep for over two years because the teachers need to pay better attention to their students, and less attention to their cell phones, and to each other... The teacher we started with (Miss Izzy) is no longer at the school (went to college). The teaching staff has changed constantly since that change; we've seen 5-10 different girls teaching this class on a weekly basis. We recently visited another school (for just one hour) and with a little assistance our daughter was able to complete moves she was not receiving guidance on at VC. She is now rated Level 2, and is making huge strides and progress. We sent an email to the staff letting them know we were unhappy and that we were not renewing membership, in addition to addressing the above issues and received no phone call, or email back. This was upsetting since we had our two daughters there for quite a while, and had a good report with the front desk staff.

But, she is always focused on helping her clients achieve their goals. I have been really pleased with Dollie's work. I am a busy professional, and my schedule is sometimes crazy. She always finds a way to make it work - and to prevent me from skimping out on a workout for a lazy reason. I have also found that she knows her stuff - I have often had challenges with odd aches or pains that I chalked up to "getting old." Dollie has the patience to figure out what is causing the issue so that we can work through it with stretching, yoga, conditioning, etc. I have been really surprised by some of these results. Lastly, I think she is good for any level of fitness. She can push you at a competitive level, or can help you just get started on a program. She definitely has the "chops," and she balances it with real positivity that makes you feel great about committing to a program. Hire her!
