I took posing lessons from Mary for my first ever bikini competition. Mary explained me everything, step by step, gave me a lot of confidence and she knew exactly what poses will make me look the best on stage. I took 2 silver medals in two categories, thanks to Mary!!!

I was referred to Mary as a posing coach for my first fitness show. I was very nervous about this part of the preparation for the show, but Mary displayed a very warm down to earth personality that made me feel welcome and at home. How she was able to articulate and teach posing was extremely impressive, and her knowledge in the sport is immense. Mary created a routine specifically for me and what highlighted my shape best. She was VERY patient which I appreciated, and in time I gained more confidence in my posing. She provided a lot of insight, and went above and beyond for me when I needed extra help. She turned what was the most daunting part of the process for me into the most enjoyable. I highly recommend Mary for all of your posing needs, but I’m sure she also makes a fantastic coach and trainer as I’m sure she is phenomenal at anything she does. Mary is a true professional.

Mary is an absolutely wonderful person and coach. She helped me tremendously with bodybuilding posing technique which she is excellent at. But she was also always willing to go above and beyond to help me tweak certain areas of my body by giving me advice on how to target those areas with bodybuilding techniques as well. She is easy to get along with and knowledgeable. I would recommend her highly.

I have worked with Mary for two competitive seasons now. I appreciate her honesty and her ability to help me showcase my physique. I feel more confident and in control every time. Mary always takes the time and care to check in with you mentally and physically, in offering advice and encouragement. I trust her explicitly and rely on her expertise and knowledge in the bodybuilding world. Or should I say for empowering women to feel and look their best!! Always thankful for you Mary!!

I met Mary about 3 years ago, and she has been nothing short of honest, supportive and professional both as a coach and the person she truly is. I've witnessed Mary's passion first hand, she is unmatched and her results speak for itself. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking to improve their fitness goals (an at any stage of the journey).

I have had the pleasure in having Mary as my trainer for almost a year now. With her guidance, my glutes and shoulders have grown, where it seemed like an impossibility in the past. What I appreciate and enjoy most about Mary is her depth of knowledge, as well as her ability to motivate. She is keen on spotting you to use proper technique and ensures you are training the intended body part with effectiveness and efficiency. She is friendly and patient, no matter how trivial your questions can be, she is always detailed and articulate with her responses. Most definitely Mary has provided quality training and coaching to help me achieve my body building goals. No brainer...highly recommended!

I found out about Mary through a friend as she did posing lessons with her too and had amazing things to say about her so I decided to book a posing session with Mary. After 1 class, I have polished my techniques, my walk and overall, my posing routine looked 100 times better than it did before. After that, I have consistently booked sessions with Mary (1-2 times per week). Mary is professional, tough yet encouraging, and overall, an amazing coach. With her help, I felt confident on stage all thanks to her critique and tips. I would highly suggest booking a session with her if you need help with posing. I also have heard great things about her personal training sessions as Mary is highly educated and a tough coach that will help you reach your goal.

Mary is such an amazing posing coach! Absolutely professional, tailoring all posing routines to best showcase the individual. She is able to help you to build your confidence to present your physique, you will also be educated on what the judges are looking for. Definitely recommend!

I have Mary been my coach for more than two years. Before I met her, I was figuring out stuff by myself, and of course that had put me into disadvantage in sticking to the proper movement and workout plan. Working with her has changed my whole experience with weightlifting and bodybuilding. She is so professional and confident about her knowledge. I was able to build more muscles and pushed myself to the limit based on her instructions. She is also very nice and encouraging. She has given me so many helpful tips, not only on bodybuilding but also on mental health and optimistic lifestyles. Definitely 100% recommend training with her!

I have nothing but positive thing to say her results are unreal and just bring me joy to see the improvement i have made working with her. I truly recommend her.

Mary is very professional and knowledgeable. The facility is very well equipped and well run. Mary is always happy to help and answer any questions you may have. Highly recommend Valid Fitness Studio!

Mary is a passionate and lovely coach!!She helped me to practice posing routine and encourage me during my whole prep,I felt so much more confident on stage after all sessions and won 2 gold eventually.Best coach ever had.

Bikini poses were so much more detailed than I ever imagined. For someone who is so uncoordinated in heels, coach Mary has taught me everything from scratch. She knows exactly how to adjust the poses to flatter your current physique best and build your confidence while at it! You can tell she truly enjoys her work which makes the experience so much more fun! Took home a gold and a silver thanks to her! 🥰

Mary has helped me reached my goal efficiently and follow up on my progress consistently. She is knowledgeable and caring, and can definitely give you the Push you need in workouts. She is amazing to work with!!!

Coaching by Mary has been the best I've had so far in my journey to reach my future firefighter fitness goals. I always leave feeling more knowledgeable and encouraged. The gym itself has a great vibe and is always in top shape.

Mary is a no nonsense, straightforward, yet friendly coach that got me from shy, awkward and unable to walk in heels to confident and sassy on stage. She is very thorough and helped me consider all other parts of my prep as well, going above and beyond what her job was as a posing coach. If you are considering hitting the stage, hire Mary as your posing coach NOW! She is worth every penny and you will not be disappointed.

From the beginning of this year, I've been training with Mary. She is a top grade committed personal trainer with in-depth knowledge and experience in all categories of physical training. She is very motivating and empowering and helped me tremendously to train consistently and effectively. I could see the progress in my strength and fitness with the first few classes itself. She listens to you and observes you and would know the right type of program to follow. She assigns different types of trainings and give different challenges frequently to bring out the best in you. If you are looking for fitness or good strength and physique, Mary is 100 percent your go-to person. I highly recommend her.

I was referred to Mary for posing for my first bikini competition. I will start by saying it does not come naturally to me, AT ALL. From our very first zoom meeting during lockdowns and into in-person teaching, Mary has been incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and has made me feel very comfortable and ready for my first show. We had so much fun in the process, too! When I finally got on stage, I felt comfortable and confident, and part of my judges critique was that she liked my posing and overall presence on stage (thanks to Mary!)!!! I highly recommend using Mary to teach you posing for any division. She’s very knowledgeable in different categories and what things the judges are looking for in each! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!!!!
