"I want you to know how grateful I am for this space. It's a soul, body and mind space where I don't have to shame myself for all the things I do wrong, because I get to celebrate all the things I do right. And there are so many more things I am doing right these last months with you in my corner. I had bad months and ok months and great months and my practice in this group changed depending on it, but I never felt less or outside. I knew I was part of this revolution and it doesn’t have to be perfect. It is a revelation that fitness does not mean 200% all the time. As long as I keep going, it can be one workout a week or seven. The further we progress the more I crave the workouts and the more the nutritional practices are part of my daily life and not a chore. It doesn't have to be hard all the time for it to be effective.”

"Go for it!" That is the mantra I go by these days, why you ask? I started the Couch to Consistent program with Milana in Jan 2021; I thought this was going to be just a workout class to get me back on track with my health and fitness regimen, but this was different. Milana brings a level of energy and connects with the people that she works with. This is more than just a workout.

I was skeptical that the workouts would be too hard and that I wouldn’t be able to keep up with it, but Milana carefully orchestrates the class to accommodate someone that is new and just starting their fitness journey to making to it challenging for someone that is pretty fit and help them get the most out of the workouts.

I am able to function better on a daily basis with more energy, better mood and high spirits. I am able to keep up with my kids and accomplish more throughout the day, which I could not do before.

My biggest breakthrough is that I'm motivated and I WANT to workout! Milana has been able to instill consistency with me which is key in maintaining good health be it with nutrition and exercise."

"Milana got me moving. I am a very busy mom and was just having no luck setting time aside to be active. She listened to me, heard what I had going on and came back with a solution. I loved to be able to move, and the next thing I know, I'm getting in at least three hour long sessions of movement a week. These sessions might be on the continued program with Milana, or a walk in the park, or even just putting on my favorite jams and dancing my ass off. Because she found a hole in my busy schedule and got me moving, I fell in love with moving again."

This is a fitness program, but it also isn’t. Yes, we move, yes, we do squats, burpees and stuff like that. But the reason why I feel like moving my body is because Milana makes me feel like moving my body isn’t a chore, and most importantly, I can trust my body to support me to do all these movements. And while teaching us how to trust our bodies, she also teaches us how to trust ourselves in other ways. To trust myself to make good nutritional choices (not always, but to make those consciously), to trust to choose myself in other areas in life too. If I can take care of my body, I can also take care of being a leader. If I can take care of my body, I can also choose to take rest when I need it. I can choose to infuse fun in daily activities for myself and my family. It is amazing how much all these areas are related and I am so glad that Milana connects all of them in the program.
