Here’s what others have to say:

"Ali worked with me after I tore my ACL to strengthen my leg prior to surgery.  After surgery we worked on bringing me back to sports strength. Eight months after surgery, through Ali’s work with me, I was back doing jumps snowboarding, without a knee brace." - Erik Monti

“Training with Mark has been an incredible benefit to my physical and mental well-being overall. He takes the time to listen to your goals and structures every session accordingly. He's a natural motivator who is gifted at explaining things, and answering all questions, in a way that's easy to understand and immediately apply. He's professional, personable, and welcoming to students of all skill levels. Mark always comes to every session prepared to give his all, and inspires each student to do the same.” ~ Martin

"My all-time favorite personal trainer - she’s simply the best." - Dolph Lundgren

"Ali helped me believe as a breast cancer survivor, I could return to an active life.  I went from being winded going up a few steps, to biking 400 miles through Vermont in less than 18 months. Ali made the process so much fun, that losing 50 pounds was insignificant." - Lilian Minic

“Ali is a great trainer. Ali will push you to be better and also help you increase your confidence. Since I have attended True Balance Studio, my physical pain has dramatically decreased. My body is stronger as well. I can truly say I enjoy working out again. I highly recommend True Balance Studio to anyone who want to improve their fitness.” - Sam Ingram

“Prior to booking with Chris I had never heard of Muscle Activation Technique (MAT). For years I’ve suffered from knee pain related to osteoarthritis from an old ACL repair, therein causing additional weakness, imbalance and dysfunction related to my SI joint.  Chris’ techniques with MAT worked to activate points for my glutes, hamstrings and more -- relieving chronic achy pain and helping to rebalance my mobility and regain strength. Chris’ knowledge of muscular anatomy, what connects to where is impressive and I learned a great deal about my body and the underlying issues.  I highly recommend Chris as addition to your personal training program, physical therapy, massage therapy and whatever other modalities you use.”~ Deanna Figiel

"Last year I returned from a three year assignment in London and realized I was not feeling as I had prior to leaving for London. My weight had increased and I was lethargic, losing flexibility and mobility and experiencing many aches and pains. I started to think about retirement driven basically by how I was feeling. Having been healthy and always feeling very good, I knew that since the years were moving along that I now had to focus on my health and made a personal commitment to do so if I wanted to live a long and healthy life. I was introduced to Chris Comfort as a Personal Trainer and found in Chris someone who not only outlined a personal training plan, but counseled me in good nutrition and eating habits. Without Chris' constant encouragement and support, I would never have been as successful in losing weight, gaining back flexibility and mobility. The thoughts of retirement are no longer a priority and much younger people I work with are always telling me how good I look and asking "where do you get your energy from.” ~ Catherine, Managing Director, Citi

"Having had spinal surgery when I was 17, I was concerned as to whether or not my back would be able to support a pregnancy without bed rest. Thanks to Chris Comfort and his prenatal conditioning program, particularly the special back strengthening exercises, I did not feel one ounce of pain or discomfort throughout the entire 9 months. Further, I was amazed at how healthy and strong my body felt. Chris Comfort is the only trainer I trust with the health of my back and my body.” ~ Jennifer, PR Exec and Mother

"Ali is TRUly a lifesaver and an awesome personal trainer. In just a couple of months I lost more than 65 pounds of pure fat and replaced it with muscle. No fly by night diet, no fat burning pills, just the result of Ali’s passion coming through in my results.  THANKS AGAIN ALI!" - Mike William

“Gigi is an incredible trainer — she’s thoughtful and encouraging, and very knowledgeable about fitness and health. What she doesn’t know, she researches to learn more so that she can help her clients. When I came to her post-childbirth, she learned all about my issues and tailored a progressive program that was gentle yet challenging and got me to a place of strength I honestly thought I’d never reach again. Plus she’s upbeat and super fun to be around! And she has the biggest heart - she really cares about her clients and the True Balance community. Gigi has been such a gift to me, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! “ ~ Thanks, Marianne

“I think Gigi is a perfect combination of encouraging and challenging as a trainer. I’ve already been able to do more than I ever thought I could! I’ m someone with issues around body image and some ego damage from high school gym classes, so working with her is healing some very old hurts. I feel so much stronger.” Karen

“Rachel is an attentive trainer who tailors the workouts to meet my needs and my bodies needs. She varies the workouts to hold my attention. I’ve been impressed with her ability to address any pain or discomfort I am experiencing and strengthen areas of weakness.” ~ Nancy

How the True Balance Method has helped others:

MEET ONE OF MY CLIENTS, KEN…  

He was involved in a terrible car accident that crushed his shoulder, hip and lower leg. He now has pins in all those areas to keep his body together and before he came to me, he had very limited movement.

Through the disciplined and progressive method I use with all my clients, which has now become the True Balance Method, we were able to get him on his road to recovery. 

He is now in great physical shape and has a range of movement that he thought he’d never have after his accident.

BUT TRUE BALANCE Studio ISN’T JUST ABOUT RECOVERING FROM INJURY.

It works on aligning your body properly and countering the physical restrictions that come with modern life.

TAKE MARIAM, A REHABILITATION PHYSICIAN…

She knew the rigors of her work were causing her debilitating symptoms: severe headaches, sleeping poorly and bodily aches and pains. As a physician, she knew these were the result of her bad habits and work stress.

With my help we were able to align her form and create a balanced workout that yielded results after only a few sessions.

“I initially sought out Ali to start working out at a gym closer to home in hopes of increasing my compliance to an exercise routine. But, I have gained so much more.

Within the first couple sessions, Ali was able to pick out some of my imbalances and problems I was fully aware of (and a few more I wasn’t!). 

Proper form is highly emphasized and she provides just the right amount of push to get you to your goals safely as she draws on her vast knowledge and experience to provide a more holistic approach to fitness. 

In the case of my headaches, not only was my posture addressed, but we also looked at this from a hydration and nutrition standpoint as well. With Ali, each person is on their own journey and by her example, there is an air of positivity and encouragement.

I’m now on a regular exercise routine (with Ali keeping me accountable), have improved posture and endurance. I rarely experience headaches, sleep better and I’ve recovered my resilience. 

I am so grateful for Ali because I have finally found the balance in my life and my only regret is not joining sooner.”
