$52/hour
Experience 5 years
Location Bethlehem, PA

Hi, my name is Ali. Unlike most people in the health and fitness industry, my passion for fitness did not come naturally, easily or early in life. I have always struggled with a few extra pounds, even though I was active and played sports growing up. As an adult, things didn’t get better. During a 10-year career in education, my resolve to be active and healthy constantly fluctuated, my weight along with it, until I was forced to take an honest look at myself and the unhealthy choices I was making. Not everything changed overnight. I didn’t suddenly love going to the gym and eating healthy. Finally after incorporating a series of small manageable lifestyle changes, I could recognize and begin to enjoy the sustainable positive effects that were taking place. Over time, I began to realize and appreciate the value of feeling strong not only physically but mentally. No one was more surprised than me that health and fitness would become my passion. During the last few years this passion culminated in my earning two accreditations; NASM Certified Personal Trainer and ACE Certified Health Coach. As a result of my experience with personal struggles and triumphs, I am able to offer empathy and support to my clients because I have been where they are. I get it. It is my mission to provide clients with tools, guidance, and encouragement, to enable positive and lifelong changes so they can reach health, fitness, and nutrition goals.

What to Expect

After a thorough consultation and assessment, my clients are provided a plan to suit their goals and needs. During a session, they receive guidance, support, and motivation. I've been where they are, I know what they are feeling, and I communicate with them in a way that is encouraging and empathetic, yet safely and comfortably pushes them past their mental and physical stumbling blocks.

Client Success Story

“I’ve always taken care of everyone else and taken the easy, lazy way for myself. I have now learned to pay attention to myself and what’s good for me. Since being introduced to Ali, I have lost more than 20 pounds, am not using any asthma medication and have much less pain in many of my arthritic joints. I am also much happier, have much more energy and have a better outlook. I have a long way to go, but I know I will get there, I have the confidence now and more knowledge and support from Ali to get me there. Even when I slip, Ali is there to pick me up!” ~Mary R.
