CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Classes & Workshops
I have always thought that "senior" classes were not for me -- I'm no wimp! But the classes that Donna Sue teaches are perfect for me! She provides harder and easier options within the same class.

Balance class with Donna Sue afforded me the opportunity to improve my balance and also showed me how to protect myself if about to fall. This paid off when I fell missing a step...and was able to walk away with only a bruised knee and cut nose.

You are what I’ve been looking for and are offering the type of class I really like. It’s a little bit of everything but enough of it to benefit. And you are obviously knowledgeable and share that with us as we work out.

The equipment Donna Sue uses with me in a home setting is minimal and creative. She makes my time with her enjoyable, fun, and most importantly effective.

I pose unique challenges since an accident left me a quadriplegic...She (used) a unique series of exercises and brain speed activities to better connect my brain and arms/legs to exercise not only my muscles but also the neural pathways that connect them to my damaged spinal cord.

Dave C.
Neither one of my parents had ever exercised before and Donna Sue was not only able to get them to actually exercise, but managed to get them to enjoy it! The most wonderful part was that they felt better- better mobility, less aching, better balance, and a renewed sense of how they could feel!

A BIT ABOUT ME
I have been teaching senior fitness classes 20 years. I have numerous certifications specific to the 50+ population, allowing me to create a wide range of exercises and activities for every body ability. What sets me apart from others in the fitness field is my extensive knowledge in how to effectively train bodies of all abilities despite any limitations. I excel at creating programs that utilize strength, mobility, balance and neuroplasticity, to create effective mind-body connections.
​
In my spare time I enjoy reading, coloring and traveling with my husband.
