TESTIMONIALS
Ashley Alexander

When I began my journey to tryouts in 2009, Kelly was recommended to me for dance lessons. Although I was not where I needed to be technically, I really wanted to advance and Kelly proved to be an incredibly effective teacher. She helped me to grow and feel confident as a dancer with frequent choreography and instruction. During the couple of years that I was in Temple Fitness I saw how well Kelly, Joey, and their team understood body compositions and cared about their clients’ progress. Since there had been great results from my dance lessons and trusted that I could experience great results with fitness training, as well. In preparation for Tryouts I began training with Luke in February 2012. His knowledge and genuine concern allowed me to trust him as a trainer and friend and, therefore, by following his instruction and advice I was able to reach goals through fitness and nutrition. Kelly and Luke helped me become a much better dancer with a better physique and health. I was so glad to have the support and encouragement of Temple Fitness. They are family to me and helped me accomplish my dreams!
