Her deep, science-based understanding of physiology, especially when it comes to female and athletic bodies, is truly unmatched. She meets you exactly where you are, tuning in to your personal needs while offering practical, meaningful guidance that leads to real change. What sets Shanti apart is her whole-body, natural approach. She's not someone who pushes a Western medicine fix for everything--she's incredibly attuned to the body's natural rhythms and honors the simplicity and wisdom of how we're built. She challenges me in the best ways, always pushing me toward actual growth while being emotionally supportive and truly caring along the way. And honestly--her approach works. I've been dealing with insulin resistance and hormonal shifts, and in just two months I've experienced a major, positive transformation in how I feel and how my body functions. I first worked with Shanti before my wedding and reached my goals, and came back to her when I decided to come off birth control. The results have been even more powerful the second time around. If you're ready to take real action and make sustainable, lifelong changes for your health, I can't recommend Shanti enough. She's the real deal

Her impact starts at food and nourishment but goes so far beyond it, as she really understands that so many aspects of my life as a whole contribute to how I eat and my relationship with food and my body.

My physician referred me to Manuel for us to work together to address some health issues where…read morebetter nutrition and weight loss would be beneficial.  Working with Manual has been life changing!   His program teaches you how to have a better relationship with food, to make smarter choices, to understand your metabolism, to inform you on how our body works in processing food and adjust eating habits accordingly.  It is not a fad diet or a short term plan, it is designed to sustain your habits for a lifetime. I love food and cooking and there is nothing that I can't eat, I never once felt like I was "on a diet" or that I was being deprived of enjoying the food and meals that I love to eat.  It is about being more informed and making better choices and as Manuel likes to say "improving your relationship with food". I have lost over 15% of my starting weight thus far and several inches off my waist and this will continue and be sustained forever! Manuel is awesome to work with, super knowledgeable, genuinely supporting, encouraging and caring and without his help I would not have been able to gain these results let alone drive the long term changes needed to improve my health. This was also accomplished 100% via zoom meetings and messages since we are over 2,000 miles away from each other. Manuel is the real deal and is highly recommended!

In May of 2019, my doctor had me do some routine labwork. When the results came back she said,…read more"your blood sugar and lipids are waaaaay off, I'm ordering you to go to a dietician/nutritionist immediately and have them go over your diet with a fine-toothed comb." Despite not previously knowing about any blood sugar issues, I had shot past pre-diabetic and was well into diabetic numbers. My triglycerides were off the charts. I asked my friends at the gym and many of them recommended MV Nutrition. Additionally, my partner had used MV Nutrition several years ago and had an excellent experience with them. Manuel at MV Nutrition explained to me all about metabolic syndrome, and what he would do for me to get it and my numbers under control. 6 months later all my numbers were perfect, I'd dropped 35 pounds, my bodyfat went from 28% to 19%, and I lost 7 inches on my waist. My doctor was astonished at how I'd progressed, and called me her "poster boy". The key components of the MV Nutrition program are: they set a daily calorie target, you log everything you eat and drink, and you eat a certain number of servings that they set from 6 different food categories. They identify "superfoods" in each category that they encourage you to choose from, but you have complete latitude in eating what you want as long as you hit the calorie and food category targets. Manuel is also a realist: he tells you to not worry about diet while on vacation, and if you are making good progress, you can take a cheat day every week. Logging all your food as accurately as possible is key, and MV Nutrition has their own app that makes this easy. Just having the awareness of what you are actually eating makes a huge difference. MV Nutrition aims to help you make food choices that are healthy, but that are varied and enjoyable enough that they become lifestyle habits, so that you can maintain your healthier you. I heartily endorse MV Nutrition!

I feel so much better after an 8-month engagement! For years I have dealt with skin rashes, bloating, digestive issues which no physician has been able to help me with, with Marisol guidance I saw improvement in 3 months. I will continue to check in with her as I work toward further improving my familial high cholesterol numbers and the impact of menopause. And did I mention that my clothes are fitting me again!!! Thank you Marisol.

I am really grateful to have found out about Marisol. I came to her with a lot of gut issues that…read morewere causing me all kinds of other issues with my brain, eyes, and throughout my body-I was really in a bad state. Marisol definitely helped me get these gut issues under control so I could be a functional human again. What's great about Marisol is that she met me where I was at, rather than trying to change my diet or all my self care routines to something that had worked for another client, but might not work for me. I also want to add that Marisol is a very kind and patient with her clients-she always indulged my random questions, tangents, and long winded discussions about health & life. If you are having any kind of gut or nutrition issue, I would highly recommend her!

After reading her amazing, easy-to-read book, "The 28 Day Runway," I was able to establish healthy habits, starting with drinking water every morning and incorporating a morning workout routine.

From our very first session, Christina's warm, empathetic approach put me at ease. She listened…read moreintently, asked thoughtful questions, and quickly honed in on the core issues I was struggling with. One of the most valuable aspects of working with Christina has been her introduction to the wide array of resources she has researched and written (covering a range of topics from nutrition, fitness, mindfulness and overall wellbeing). She has a wealth of knowledge and leveraged this to cater to my specific needs. I would not be feeling (or looking) my best without her support and guidance over the years. There is no one out there offering this caliber and quality of coaching and I hope she continues to change people's lives for a long time to come.

I've been getting weekly personal training sessions with James Coca for a little over a year now…read moreand it's been a really worthwhile experience. I went in with some lingering injuries to my lower back and right shoulder, so James started me out the first month or two slowly with a focus on strengthening those areas before advancing to heavier weights and exercises. My primary goal was to gain strength and some muscle, but I also wanted to do some tailored strength training for my tennis game, and James diligently created and continually customized workouts each week to help me progress in those areas. He also has a great personality, which makes the training sessions fun and something to look forward to each week. As part of the personal training package, I also have access to free group classes and testing (DEXA scans, VO2 Max tests), and I've really enjoyed the Tuesday Hyrox class with Donovan and the Sunday Circuits class with Elijah. I've also now gotten two DEXA scans (9 months apart), which has shown that I've increased my muscle mass by 5 pounds while lowering my body fat percentage. In addition to seeing myself lift heavier weights over time, it's also great to be able to quantify the change in body composition as well. Overall, it's not cheap, but with the targeted training and extra access to group classes and perks, it feels like great value for the cost. I've never had a personal trainer before, and I'm glad I started last year even if it meant cutting down on expenses elsewhere - it's increased my accountability to my health goals, and that feels like a great investment!

I wanted to stop counting calories and stop tracking everything I ate. I've been trying to lose weight on and off again for the past 6 years. The past 2 years has been the longest/ committed/ successful chapter in my weight loss journey; I've lost a total of 70 lbs. My first video chat with Alexandra was very comfortable. She listened to my story and heard what I wanted/ was looking for. She is extremely knowledgeable and her recommendations were reasonable. I really thought my time with her was going to be focused on food, but it was not. We have been working on how I look at food and body acceptance. My experience working with her was very positive; I gained a lot of knowledge and learned so many great new resources. I'm very thankful for her guidance and support.

Alex and I worked together through her 12 week program. I initially found Feast of Green on Yelp…read moreand both my wife and I scheduled a consultation to share our needs and goals before we committed to the program. I was looking to establish new eating habits that added value for me as well as work on general wellness and improvement of energy, attitude, and routine. Alex's weekly program offers insights, structure, and support without feeling restricted or prescribed. She leveraged a food tracking app with me as well to help me become aware of how my food and drink selections impact my energy, muscles, hormones, and more. We covered a range of topics over 12 weeks including nutrition, sleep, body image, stress, exercise, and boundaries for a total self review and reflection. I'm walking away more knowledgable and observant of my choices and decisions, and more empowered and confident to make adjustments. Very happy with Alex's service, communication, availability, and knowledge. Shout out to Tabitha for helpful admin support as well! Highly recommend Feast of Green if you're looking to make long term adjustments in your life - it is never too early or too late to give it a shot.

Of all the instructors, Coach Jackson Bloore was mentioned in a Facebook group as one offering additional coaching (I needed some nutrition guidance). I filled out some info on the website and he scheduled an hour to talk. We talked for an hour and went over EVERYTHING tied to my goals, concerns, etc. I decided to move forward and he built a 16-week plan. The initial phase is the hardest as you dial in your nutrition big time. The results came pretty fast with a noticeable difference in my gut. Then I started noticing more muscle definition. By the end of the 16 weeks I was in the best shape of my adult life (maybe my entire life!). So thankful for Coach Jackson's guidance! I look forward to going back through it again to see even better results! Maybe I'll see a 6-pack soon!

I never bothered to learn or practice eating well, and had zero experience with lifting weights. No surprise that I had 10+ pounds of blubber stubbornly sticking to me while exiting the pandemic, and over 50 years old. I ordered a Tonal exercise machine, but knew I needed more. So I hired Action Jackson for his four month fitness and nutrition program, and that is the best thing I could ever do for myself, long-term. Four months later, body fat dropped from 13.5% to 9%, lost 16 pounds of fat and gained 8 pounds of muscle. I feel great. More than that, I feel educated and able to manage diet and exercise on my own now. Do you want results? Do you believe you are worth the investment? Hire Action Jackson!

I learned a lot about hormones and how to balance meals to fuel my body. I wish all this information was more widespread and would definitely recommend Alison for "fourth trimester" recovery advice!
