I joined a Fitlandia running group shortly after moving to Portland. I wasn't much of a runner and…read morewas concerned I'd fall behind the group. Christa is absolutely great at making sure everyone feels comfortable and making the group a non competitive one. Running was hard at first but I quickly got hooked on it and looked forward to seeing my fellow troopers early mornings 3 days a week. The power of the group really works wonders for motivation, and christa is one of the best group leaders I've ever come across. She has an infectiously positive energy that permeates across more than just exercise. When I was struggling and looking for work, she kept me thinking positive and striving toward my goals. Something must've worked because I got my dream job! I'd recommend Fitlandia to anyone looking for a positive, healthy change - be it large or small.

I've been run/walking (and today for the first time doing a "Virtual HIIT challenge" - whew!) with…read moreFitlandia for several weeks. First off, I'll say that this is a group that is in it to support fitness for the long haul. There is no "go till you drop" mentality - it is supportive, fun, and is designed to allow folks to safely and find their own appropriate challenge level. This is fitness with two awesome twists. The first twist is right in the tagline - a "subconscious twist" - and it's highly insightful. How many of our exercise and fitness decisions (and any decision, really) are driven by subconscious stories we tell ourselves? If you haven't thought much about this before, I'll spare you the suspense: A LOT! Fitlandia beautifully incorporates this aspect of ourselves into an overall fitness program that lasts for the long haul, not just until you can see your leg muscles again, or until you can fit in those pants, or until your wedding is over, or until you're bored or frustrated or whatever. The second twist is Christa King, the motivating, positive minded mastermind and cheerleader behind Fitlandia. She brings a diversity of experiences and an intuitive intelligence to take Fitlandia from a brilliant concept to a concrete fitness program that will change lives for the better. Needless to say, I'm sold.

I can't speak highly enough about Tara and the Reclamation Wellness Program…read more.. My journey towards better health and well-being began with encouragement and motivation from Tara! She has a deep understanding of health and nutrition coupled with a relatable, empathetic, and supportive nature. Beyond nutrition and fitness, Tara emphasized the importance of mental and emotional health. She has introduced me to mindfulness techniques, stress management strategies, and the power of positive self-talk, which was a total game-changer for me! I love her motivational fitness routines and delicious and easy-to-follow recipes! Because of her guidance, I have gained a deeper understanding of my body and the importance of holistic well-being. Tara empowered me with the knowledge and skills I needed to maintain my health goals independently. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking to transform their health and live a more vibrant and fulfilling life. THANK YOU TARA!

Krista is a God send! At a time when my GI doctor head just about run out of ideas to treat the…read morecause of my digestive issues, I was introduced to Krista through a referral and after listening to my issues and asking questions about symptoms, she put together an incredible plan to get me back up and running! Expect to work, but that work will pay off. Krista does tele conferencing, is very flexible with your schedule and she has an app for that which makes getting connected and communicating a breeze! Krista is very compassionate and patient and is really interested in your well being.I highly recommend her services to anyone in need. She knows her stuff!

Krista first came into my life in 2017 when my dad was dying from Alzheimer's and I was involved in…read morecaregiving. I found her on Instagram and reached out. It was one of the best decisions I ever made! Every session was practically like therapy. She immediately knew that my biggest need, along with making changes to my nutrition, was to manage my stress levels. She has such a caring, loving approach to coaching and nutrition. I remember in the beginning she told me, in the kindest way, "Oh sister, your body needs to be able to take a breath and just eat yummy nourishing food." I'd never had a nutritionist say that; like take all the stress out of food! Such a breath of fresh air. This past year (summer of 2021-2022) I've been a member of her Prime membership program and it is incredible content and once a month calls with her for such a great value!! During this time she's helped me do testing and dive deeper into why my body has had digestion issues, food sensitivities, and so on. Her skills, training and instincts are spot on. She even reaches out to physicians for extra insight. It's been so enlightening and helpful. She's someone you can immediately connect with, who truly listens and comes alongside you to guide you, and there's never, ever a cookie-cutter plan. So to anyone considering working with her I would say "Absolutely do it! You won't regret it." Krista really embodies her business name, Nutritional Love!

Laura Duzett is awesome! I have a 3 year old son with autism and is starting GAPS. Laura's…read moreknowledge of GAPS is just brilliant and she's helped us enormously, making a pretty complicated and at first intimidating diet seem simple! She's spent hours talking me through things and is always at the end of a phone or email to offer support and to advise. She's brilliant! Her office is lush too, I absolutely love it!

A very excellent class! If you follow the plan the results are life changing! I had issues with…read moremigraine headaches and muscle cramps. I was also gaining 3 to 4 pounds a year over the past 12 years. On this plan my migraines and muscle cramps went away! I have also lost 20 pounds over the last 3 months! The recipes are good; and you can find other cook books and recipes that are close if not identical to this plan. I do enjoy the food I eat with this plan and I view it as a new lifestyle.

When I moved to Portland, I was well aware of 4 undeniable truths:…read more 1.) It rains all the time here. 2.) I'm not as fit as I once was. 3.) I'd be eating a lot of doughnuts and drinking buckets of good coffee. 4.) I needed to find a quality trainer post haste. Fortunately, I found Janan through a mutual friend, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. She provides a rare combination of fitness knowledge, experience and nutritional guidance -- all in the convenice of a private, well-equipped gym. And after an initial consultation, we created an individualized plan to improve strength and overall fitness...as well as combat my not-so-great eating habits. As a former athlete, I've worked with several top coaches and trainers (and some crappy ones, too). I know what works and what doesn't. Janan is the real deal and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trainer who can accommodate a broad range of clients with a sustainable, personal approach to fitness through diet and exercise.

Results! In just ten sessions over about four months Janan had me on a program that shed inches…read moreand increased my mobility and overall health. Now I feel great and I'm cleaning out my closet and down two sizes. Janan really treats the whole person and knows how to meet you where you're at and push you just hard enough.

My husband and I started going to Allison to help us recover from an accident. I broke 22 bones…read more(the worst being my pelvis and kneecap), and he broke his thighbone (the femur, which is the longest and strongest bone in the body), so even after the bones healed, we had some serious muscle weakness to work on. After some physical therapy, I figured we'd just gradually regain normal strength over time, but my husband wanted to go to a trainer, and he was right. Allison has really helped speed up our recovery. She uses her knowledge of physiology and movement to create workouts that target areas we need to work on, and we've seen a huge difference in our strength and flexibility over the months we've been working with her. Multiple friends and acquaintances have commented that they'd never know how badly we were injured just a year ago, and I think we owe a lot of that to working with Allison. Obviously everyone's needs are different, but I'd highly recommend Allison based on my experience. I'm sure she'd be great no matter what point you're starting from, because she works hard to figure out how to help you with whatever you want to improve, and she's really kind and motivating.

I have been working with Allison for over two months now and it has been awesome. She took the…read moretime to get to know me and my goals, as well as to assess my strengths and weaknesses in order to devise a plan to get me where I want to go. She is very knowledgeable in both fitness and nutrition and I love that she is always continuing to learn more. She is intuitive, motivating, and highly encouraging. She has not only inspired me, she has helped me to really see that if I'm willing to put in the work, I can get to the fitness level I want. Perhaps the best aspect of training with Allison is I can see and feel I am getting stronger, but I don't feel like I'm killing myself in the gym. Her workouts are challenging AND fun. I have yet to not want to get up and head to the gym for a workout with her - and for me, that is really saying something! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent trainer.

I love my time with Kristin. I have found her to be professional and caring. She has listened to…read morewhat I would like to accomplish and has tailored my sessions to meet these goals. I have felt a true connection with her. I come away after each session with a sense of peace and calmness. I feel rejuvenated and encouraged. I am sleeping better because of my time with her and I am making better choices in my weight loss journey. Stress and anxiety no longer drive my emotions. I would highly recommend Infinite Changes.

When I was searching for a GAPS Practitioner, picking the right person to work with was really…read moreimportant to me. I looked at about 20 different websites, and had initial consultations with at least 10 (yes, 10!) different GAPS practitioners. When I came across Jennifer, she easily stood out head and shoulders above the rest. I loved that she was squarely focused on GAPS (where most of the other folks did a little of this and a little of that), and it was clear she knew her stuff. For me one of the biggest benefits to working with Jennifer was her game-changing initial recommendations. There were a few things that were causing me quite a bit of grief when I came to Jennifer. With a few tweaks, I received instant relief and am ever-so-grateful. I suppose the only thing I would've done differently in working with Jennifer is to bring her onboard earlier. I did GAPS on my own for about a year. I read everything I could get my hands on and was an internet researching maniac. It was e-x-h-a-u-s-t-i-n-g. I'm sure bringing Jennifer on earlier would have saved me a ton of time, energy and frustration. I guess that was just one of those "live and learn" moments. There have certainly been plenty of those during my GAPS journey, but choosing to work with Jennifer was definitely not one of them.

I started working with Jennifer last month, mostly just to get a good overview of proper nutrition…read moreand to steer me in a healthy direction for cooking. After the first (free!) consult, we named some specific goals and sketched out a plan for the next three months. I met with Jennifer again 3 weeks later, and together we went over my food journal that I had filled out for the week. Beyond just telling me what I should add to my diet or try to avoid, she really tried to give me background knowledge to *why* such dietary changes are important - such as the different types of oils and fats, or a what a good balance of carbs and proteins and fats looks like. After my session, she sent me a whole bunch of recipe and snack ideas that would fit perfectly with my time, budget, and dietary needs. Jennifer also works with clients who need larger changes, such as weight loss or acne treatment. She's a certified GAPS practitioner, which I don't know too much about but I hear good things. What I really like about working with Jennifer, though, is that her approach isn't "one size fits all". She doesn't just have one rigid theory on nutrition that she tries to pin on you; rather, I feel that she really listens to my specific needs and goals in order to come up with a unique plan. Already, I'm becoming more aware of what I eat and how it makes me feel. I still have several more sessions with Jennifer, and I'm excited to learn more about nutrition and put all of the information into practice.
