Yo’s Reviews

“I've lost 33 pounds since last Spring with Yo's support and training! I have been a NYSC member for about 15 years. And during most of that time I have worked with one trainer or another. And I have had several periods when I have stopped coming to work out for a month or two up to a year or so - due to excessive work commitments, or health issues. Two and a half years ago, I thought I had torn my psoas muscle - I was in a lot of pain at every step - and started physical therapy on the 5th floor at W82nd St. I was so unsure of what was making me hurt that I stopped training altogether - a big mistake I now know. When after about 8 months the PT wasn't making much of a difference/improvement either, I stopped going to it. I wasn't doing anything but paying for my membership monthly. throwing money away. And gaining weight. My previous trainer was not available to meet in the morning, so I started working with Yo. She has been patient and inspiring. I have now finally been correctly diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my hip and am in PT once again - which is actually making a difference. Limping, using a cane some days, struggling as I have been, I have been very discouraged from time to time - but Yo has made all the difference to me. Her commitment to her clients is warm and caring. And her energy creates a powerful incentive to continue to come and to work to at least maintain one's current state! It would have been soooo easy to just quit many times over the last two years. But I never even really considered doing so - because I knew that Yo believed in me and was strongly behind my desire for greater health and fitness. I wanted to let you know just how much she has helped me. Even with a cold, on this horribly wet and rainy day with the nor'easter, I limped in and worked out the fourth time in the last 8 days...because I know I can be in better health than I am. And because Yo is there for me and will help me get there.”
