When I became pregnant with my third child, I decided to hire Tara as my personal trainer. Tara personalized a convenient workout plan that I was able to stick with throughout my pregnancy. I worked out three times a week and felt great! Working out not only helped with my delivery, but I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight in not time. There were days I felt sluggish, but with Tara's motivation, I was able to achieve my goal. I have continued to work with Tara and make fitness a part of my lifestyle despite my hectic schedule. Working out alleviated my stress, gave me more energy, and increased my productivity throughout the day. I highly recommend Tara. Her philosophy and commitment  make her an excellent trainer. She knows each person is different and develops a plan to fit their needs.

I have had the pleasure of working with Tara Basagoitia for the past two years. In that time she has worked with me on strength training an a regular basis, coached me on diet and nutritional goals, and helped me successfully prepare for and complete two full marathons as well as numerous, half marathons, 10K and 5K races. My key goals have been to arrive at the event start line, uninjured and well prepared for the race. Some of Tara’s strengths include an easy, out-going style that puts a person at ease regardless of how difficult or awkward the particular exercise or stretch may be. Her bachelor degree in the science of personal and athletic training, in addition to her certifications, assured me Tara is a fully qualified coach for the mind and the body. Tara has helped me achieve at least 25lbs in weight loss and numerous personal records in running races. Thanks to Tara, I have better core strength, balance and flexibility. Most importantly, I have continuously trained for several years and have completed a variety of workouts without a single injury. I highly recommend Tara’s coaching and training services. I am more than happy to personally speak with anyone about Tara’s capabilities to achieve results.

I first began working Tara after losing both of my parents to disease. If they had led healthier lifestyles, they may have avoided the diseases that plagued them. As a diabetic, I realized that I needed to make some drastic changes in my own lifestyle and turned to Tara as my Wellness and Fitness Coach. Under her guidance, I have discovered the reasons behind my eating habits.  Tara also set-up an exercise program that has strengthened my entire body. Weekly meetings and goal setting with Tara has kept me on track and moving in the right direction. Thanks to Tara, I am healthier than ever. My diabetes is completely managed through diet and exercise. I have lost almost 40 lbs and several inches over my entire body. I am a new person and have never been happier! I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking to make a healthy lifestyle change.
