Gave some advice that I knew is incorrect (e.g. I should only work out with her and refused to give me a plan to work out on my own). I get it that you want to make money but it has backfired. read more

I really love working with Joselle, and I would still be if I did not move so far away. She has a real knack for finding the right set of exercises that really make you sore the next day, it in best way. I started working with her right before the pandemic, when I realized I needed a coach to keep on track with exercise. The habits we worked on continue to serve me well, and I am in better shape than I have been in years. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a personal trainer. read more

Joselle is simply the best! I have been training with her for several years now and it has been one of the best decisions I've made. Joselle emphasizes movements that make me strong, while also having proper posture to avoid injuries and to maximize the movement's benefits. I've learned from Joselle that I don't have to be an exhausted, sweaty mess after each workout to get results. Work smarter!! I have also learned a lot about my health holistically - food nutrition, sleep quality, managing stress, etc - and how it all affects my body. Joselle has deep knowledge in anatomy and I always appreciate that she takes time to explain which part of the body is working and why. Over the years she has also helped me rehab a strained lower back and shoulder. I truly enjoy working with Joselle and highly recommend her! read more

Joselle turned me into Captain America. No, that's not an exaggeration. While most of our time together was focused on general strength & health, at one point I had to train to be Captain America at San Diego Comic-Con, shield and all. That meant adding mass, leaning out, and getting the coveted V-shape. She helped me do it in a healthy way, so now I'm able to keep those gains & lessons years later. Joselle and I trained together for 3+ years and there's no one else I would have rather trained with. We worked on fitness, nutrition, and mentality around how to stick with healthy habits for both. And yet it never felt too intense or unachievable. Joselle is great at approaching every session with a creative flexibility, and I saw it with plenty with her other clients too. Joselle also helped me rehab a 4x dislocated shoulder so I could surf again, after a two year hiatus. She brings a lot to the table. I've recommended her to multiple friends, and would still do it today. Joselle is a joy to work with. She set me up with enough skills to go be successful on my own solo training now. I cannot recommend working with Joselle highly enough. read more

Joselle, what you replied was not true. You requested to chat during our scheduled time instead of giving me the session I paid for (I have text messages from you requesting to chat at the session start time.) During the conversation, I said multiple times that we were running out of time for the planned session and you also acknowledged multiple times that you still owe me that session. Why would I not want to get the lesson when I traveled all the way to the gym and dressed for it? Also, there was no contract clearly stating the payment schedule and amount. There's only a contact info sheet to collect my basic info before the trial session and that was before we even decided to meet again for a formal session and before we discussed details about when / how many times. I wish you all the best as well and want to share my experience in case others get into similar situations. I'm open to discussing a way to make up for the session I paid for or get a refund. read more

I have been trained by Joselle for almost year through the pandemic. She has not only increased my strength greatly, but also adjusted my posture and diets. More importantly, she kept teaching my how to appreciate my own body! Highly recommended!! read more

I really love training with Joselle. I initially planned to train 2-3 times a week with her. But I felt really good and strong about myself after each session with Joselle so now I am training with her almost every day. I also started to take into consideration her availabilities when I book my travels because I want to train with her as much as possible - that is how magical she is! I always prefer personal training to classes. I am busy so if I spend one hour exercising, I want to make sure I get the most out of it, which requires my form to be right, to use the right primary muscle while stabilizing others, and to feel strong afterwards vs. depleted. Joselle brings me all of that. A few things that truly set Joselle apart from other trainers: 1. Joselle reads my body well and designs the class in the way that I never feel too intense or exhausted. But in a day or two after, I feel the sore which confirms I actually have worked hard! That sore is good sore because I feel my muscles tearing and remodeling into stronger ones, which feels more like an energy than a pain to me. We sometimes equate pains with gains (because "no pain no gains"!), but Joselle made me realize that, with an amazing trainer, we can actually work smart and achieve goals without enduring unnecessary pains. 2. Joselle is deeply knowledgeable about anatomy so can explain well why I should do certain movements in certain ways. As a result, I more intentionally engage muscles vs. just look like I am doing the work. 3. Joselle also goes beyond the sessions and puts my fitness goals first. She spends time with me outside the gym on diet, nutrition which is essential to looking/feeling good about ourselves! I can't recommend Joselle enough. She is truly the best! read more

I really love working with Joselle and would recommend her to anyone looking for a personal trainer who cares about your holistic health and wellbeing, in addition to any movement / fitness goals you may have. She's able to strike a great balance of meeting you where you're at (which, for me, is critical given my chronic illness) while crafting a plan each session that still provides movement or challenge, depending on what is needed that day and what I'm capable of. I so appreciate her focus on movement that brings greater mobility and flexibility, correct posture and alignment, and strength building that's done with efficient, targeted movements (I'm always amazed at how the exercises with little movements can be so challenging and work your muscles hard!). I also really love that she's knowledgeable about gut health, chronic conditions, nutrition, and holistic treatments -- we talk about so much during our sessions and I love working with a personal trainer who takes a holistic approach when it comes to health. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a trainer who is grounded and takes a big picture, long-term view of health / fitness / movement! read more

I cannot say enough about how much I recommend Joselle. I actually started working with her right before the pandemic started. I was used to doing exercise classes but was looking for something that was more tailored. I remember walking home from my first session I could barely walk up the stairs! When San Francisco went into lockdown we started training virtually via zoom with just the items I had in my apartment. At first, I wasn't sure how this was going to work, but it ended up being one of the few things to keep me sane while being stuck inside. During the pandemic, I ended up moving to the East Coast to be close to family and we have continued to train virtually 2-3 days every week. Joselle trained me throughout my whole pregnancy (up to 37 weeks!) and is one of the reasons I was able to recover so quickly. Every session with Joselle is different and I have learned so much about my own body and what I am capable of. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to work with you on whatever your specific goals are. She makes the sessions fun and interesting while also pushing me to work as hard as I can. Definitely schedule a session with her if you can! read more

I started with working with Joselle as I was recovering from surgery on my foot. I was hesitant to get back into the gym given the pain from my surgery recovery. It has been just three weeks of working with Joselle, and I've seen my strength increase and have regained my confidence. Joselle has tailored each workout to fit my needs, and she modifies the exercises to be cognizant of my foot. She pushes me to the extent she knows my body is capable, which makes our time so much more effective than if I was working out on my own. During our first session together, I could hardly do a few pushups and was favoring my 'good' foot considerably. I am now able to do many more pushups consecutively and have seen the number of pushups I can do steadily increase with each session. Joselle is encouraging, positive, and knowledgeable in what she does. She helps me focus on isolating different muscles and guides me in the mechanics of each exercise. I've been able to work muscles that I never knew I even had! I look forward to each of my workouts with Joselle and am so excited to see what the next few weeks/months will bring! read more

Joselle is a top notch personal trainer, that is results orientated with an eye for her patients well being. She is a great motivator and knows how to get every ounce out of her clients. I can feel the difference every time when I work with her. On top of her knowledge and credibility, she has a terrific personality - as up beat and positive. My favorite thing about Joselle is that she is very invested in getting you to your goals. Ever since working with Joselle it has made me realize how attainable my goals are. She is a real game changer. Thanks Joselle! read more

I WISH I WAS STILL TRAINING WITH JOSELLE! I was referred to her by a friend that has been working with Joselle for months and has literally transformed and toned her entire physique. She was sweet and squeezed me in for a consultation and into as many sessions I could get in to look good for a last minute wedding in less than 3 weeks. Ultimately, I stayed with her for a total of three months and when she did my body fat measurements and weight - I stayed the same weight but lost about an inch to two inches around my shoulders, bust, thighs and waste. My glutes were the only part that actually increased a tiny bit (YES!) - probably because of the amazing amounts of squats and dead lifts she had me do. Joselle goes by 80% diet, 20% exercise. This is something she will guide you in but you have to put the work into eating right on your own. One thing for sure is that when you're in the gym with her, be prepared to learn what a real squat and a real lunge is. Apparently, I have been doing this wrong my whole life and just doing 3 sets of squats and lunges for her to gauge my level during my consultation, I couldn't even walk down the stairs for MUNI. She will slim you and tone you. Best thing is I never did free weights, kettle bells and bar bells and those are my new FAVORITE tools to use at the gym I just joined to keep up the progress I've made with Joselle. I'm up in the weight section with all the buff dudes like WHAT and judging their form now. read more

I worked with Joselle for over a year, until Covid messed with everyone's schedule and life. She was great. Have been going to the gym on my own forever, but was missing the structure an motivation that she provided. Saw her twice a week at the Folsom location. Being in my 50's, she was able to adjust my workout to the things I needed -- balance, flexibility, strength, core -- without making me feel geriatric. She's very patient, businesslike, but personable, always engaged. The Folsom gym was not crammed with equipment, but it wasn't needed. Most exercises were body-weight oriented, with some kettlebells/trex etc. mixed in. She effectively mixed it up between upper body, lower body, and cardio. Very impressed with her ability to get you to a good cardio workout by working the large muscle groups, without the tedium of a treadmill. She pushes you to a sweat without being a drill sergeant! She also gives good insight on diet, nutrition, and lifestyle. I had a goal of toning up and losing some weight, and was frustrated the first couple of months with no weight loss. Soon realized that I was gaining muscle mass first. Then, inches and 10 lbs came off quickly. Can't recommend Joselle enough and wish I was still working out with her! read more

Joselle is great and working out with her will be the best addiction you can get! I came in overweight, barely able to do a push-up and with uncomfortable flat feet whenever I wore flats. She analyzed the problem and fixed my feet with a variety of deadlifting exercises and corrected my push-up form. You can workout by yourself, but it will never compare to the quality of having someone like Jo correct your form to a "T." I came in an out of shape flat footed gal and came out a new woman who can do pull-ups, push-ups AND wear flats without pain! Yippee!! read more

Joselle is amazing!! Since working out with her my body has been transformed. I have so much more upper body strength and my posture has improved giving me less neck and shoulder tension. She is amazing at encouraging you to go farther than what you thought your limits were, but also knows how to keep you safe in your technique. Her attention to detail is fantastic. I use to lift weights by myself for months without seeing results and never really feeling like I worked out. When I work with Joselle I can feel some soreness the next day. She's trained me so well that when I attempt to work out on my own, I can do it correctly and efficiently and now I too am sore the next day after my own workouts. I now have tools for strength building too that I can use anywhere, even when I travel and don't have access to a gym. I'd highly recommend Joselle for getting your body on track and having someone teach you how to take care of your body that will last the rest of your life. read more

What a gem. I've come across many trainers over the last decade and Joselle stands out with ease. She holds a wonderful balance of precision with instruction, calm groundedness, and just the right amount of badass-ness...all with her knowledgable background in physical therapy. With Joselle, you get more than what you came for. Physical transformation is only where the work BEGINS, as her work goes deeper. If you're looking for a trainer, you're so lucky to have landed on Joselle's page. Now there's just one more step... read more

I have really enjoyed working with Joselle! Her attention to form has me working better inside and outside of the gym. You couldn't ask for a nicer and more understanding person to work with. read more

When I came to Joselle I was out of shape after an injury and needed a push in the right direction. The first couple of days were the best workouts of my life, and I quickly got much stronger and more fit within a month of going twice a week. She cares about her clients, always starts on time, listens to your goals and will craft a workout tailored to your needs. The gym is spacious and usually it's just one or two people in there at a time since they mostly do personal training. You can also plug in a ipod/iphone so you can listen to your own music. All in all a great experience that will get you in the best shape of your life. read more

I really enjoyed my workouts with Joselle. She always pushed me to get through the exercises not letting me give in as I usually am inclined to do when I'm working out at home. She is that extra motivation I needed and she helped me gain a better understanding of how to workout the right way and what parts of my body or muscles I was working out with a given exercise. Aside from the working out aspect she also made time to talk about my nutrition which was also really useful. I recommend her to anyone who really wants to get more fit, learn to workout the right way, and lead a healthier lifestyle in general! read more

Working with Joselle has been SUCH a positive experience! I started working with her because I really wanted to get in shape and understand how to optimize my workouts. Starting as a relatively un-athletic person, the idea of a personal trainer always intimidated me but Joselle is so wonderful that she makes me look forward to working out twice a week! (something I never thought was possible) She is extremely positive and motivating and always pushes me to work my hardest with different workouts each session. She is so knowledgeable and asks questions about nutrition and looks at fitness in a very holistic way. I really feel like she cares about my goals and wants to see me succeed . I can't imagine a better personal training experience and am feeling stronger and stronger as I continue to train with her. Thanks for everything, Joselle! :) read more

I decided to see Joselle because I felt I had hit a plateau in the group and individual training I had been doing on my own. She started the session with a thorough discovery session so she could get a feel for how I had trained in the past, what I was training for in the future, how I ate, what kind of care I took to recover from workouts, etc. I had never met with a trainer that asked questions in such detail about my other activities, so I was instantly impressed. That let me know right away that Joselle takes her role very seriously and the results as well. I loved my sessions with Joselle and it gave me a lot of great ideas to use for myself during the times I couldn't work out with her. After our sessions I felt motivated and I broke through the plateaus that I had previously reached within a few weeks. Whether you've been stagnant for awhile or are already in great shape, you can definitely benefit from some time with Joselle! read more

Best trainer ever! She is amazing and works her clients hard without being intimidating. I'm in way better shape than I've ever been both inside and out. I can't say enough about her! I started working with Joselle a few months ago and she has really helped me get into shape. I changed my eating habits and learned how to do some awesome push ups. She has given me confidence to do the work outs on my own on days that I don't see her. She is super encouraging and even texts after the workout to say good job. If you want to make a change see Joselle! read more

Joselle is a phenomenal personal trainer. My husband and I have been working with her for several years now. We initially trained with her together as a pair and despite our different body types and endurance levels, she was able to cater each session to meet both of our needs and help us set and reach individual goals. Since we had our daughter a year and a half ago, we have continued seeing her individually. I can honestly say that she is equally effective in both paired and individual settings. She is flexible, creative and makes every single minute in a session count. I am always amazed by Joselle's extensive understanding of the human body. There is no question she can't answer and her background in physical therapy allows her to immediately identify causes and solutions to any aches or pains I'm having. In addition, her vast knowledge of and passion for nutrition has been educational and inspiring. She truly cares about her clients and I have come to regard her as a friend. Even still, she maintains a high level of professionalism and never lets chatting interfere with our sessions (this is a complaint that many friends of mine have about their personal trainers). I am the type of person that has always dreaded working out. Joselle has a positive and upbeat energy that makes our sessions truly enjoyable - I am always in a good mood when I leave. As someone who has never stuck to a workout regimen for more than a few months, the fact that I have continued training with Joselle for years speaks volumes about her! The workouts are never boring or redundant and we are always doing something new and challenging. Due to personal time constraints, I have recently only been able to train once a week. And yet I am STILL seeing real results. This one session keeps my body strong, my mind balanced and gives me the energy I need to chase after my toddler all day long. I am so grateful to Joselle! read more

Joselle is an incredibly skilled trainer, whose attention to detail and support towards my goals is unparalleled. She not only helped me to recover both my confidence and strength after a major injury, breaking my back after a bad fall climbing, but also got me back to my peak physical performance for a sponsored rock climbing trip to China. She is amazing! Don't miss out working with her. read more

I started working with Joselle after recovering from ACL surgery. Her focus, knowledge about fitness, and skill at coaching helped me get stronger and smarter about how I work out. I have never been in better shape, and look forward to every session - she knows how to help me push my limits and stay motivated. She's a great person and an amazing trainer to work with! read more

Joselle is the best. I've been working out for years and in just one session I am sore in places I thought not possible Lol . I feel great... read more

Oh Joselle! Well I can say training with her is a delightful awakening of the body! I know that sounds all hippie dippie but, for real I have always poked fun at people that hire trainers and after opening a business in my mid 30's I know realize I judged too soon. After 2 years of drinking and eating my stress away I hit the wall and decided it was time for change. I met Joselle at the new business and we got to talking about training and what she did for a living. Her passion for it and more importantly her drive to really help people reach their goals stuck with me. I ended up booking a consultation and was committed to changing my ways. She did an assessment and took some measurements... And was so considerate of my reality. Shortly after i signed up and its been great! She always says don't worry about the number and focus on the stretch and form! I don't want to to be long winded so I will finish by saying if you are looking for a trainer that you feel really comfortable with check out Joselle at SkyeFit and see how you can beat the body blues! You be educated, worked out, and maybe even laugh a little while you do it! Enjoy. Ps. And killer results;) read more

I've been training with Joselle since 2015. We started off with talking about goals--what I wanted to get out of training--and quickly figured out a path to go forward. Since I've worked out with her, I have been very happy with my development. I'm stronger and more flexible. I've seen my core develop. But more importantly, Joselle has a theme and overarching philosophy to her approach, allowing me to gain strength to improve my posture. And now, it's not just my posture that's improved -- I now walk taller, moving with a sense of purpose and with greater confidence. A great coach can change your life. And if you're committed, Joselle is an amazing mentor that can point you to remarkable results, not only for the body, but for the soul, too. read more

I started working with Joselle about 8 months ago after rehabilitating from adrenal fatigue and a rotated pelvic cage. It was one of the best decisions I made in 2013. I knew I was weak, but didn't realize how much potential my body - and health - had to grow, change, and become stronger. Her knowledge of physiology is extensive and she makes certain to understand where I'm at in order to tailor an optimal workout session for me. She truly cares about her clients and I appreciate her holistic approach and understanding of the importance of nutrition and integrative medicine. Joselle truly is a person of excellence and integrity in her profession; she is not just a skilled personal trainer, she has a positive outlook on life, and is fun-loving and compassionate. Eight months later I have more energy, better alignment, less pain, and more stamina. read more

I cannot say enough about Joselle. She is the first personal trainer I have worked with and I feel lucky to have found such an all-around star on the first try. In the past, I could never justify the expense of a trainer as I felt like I knew what to do, I just had to discipline myself to actually do it. Joselle taught me new exercises and challenged me to lift heavier weights with fewer reps. She is serious about the work out yet still relaxed and really wants to get to know you as a person. As some of the other reviewers mention, she has a holistic approach and will discuss nutrition and stress reduction tips in addition to the workout. I referred my husband to Joselle and he now works out with her weekly. We have different fitness goals and the fact that we have both seen great results with Joselle is a testament to her ability. You owe it to yourself to set up an appointment with Joselle today! read more
