REVIEWS
“My dear trainer Michelle Golla. Your trading has changed the trajectory of my life! I do not exaggerate. I have a care with stronger body and spirit and with so many new goals for the year. Thank you for all the care you’ve given to our workouts, for being a friend and a genuine cheerleader along the road. I am proud to say I can do a “prisoner” , love weight training again and have found a lightness in my being that was gone for a while. You are a role model that will never be forgotten”
“Michelle, you beat the school insanity and transferred your teaching skills to coaching and personal training. Ryan and I couldn’t be anymore grateful to you for all you’ve done us especially keeping us motivated to come back weekly for more. I never exercised a day in my life except walking, and Ryan hasn’t worked out in years. We are now on the track to making exercise a part of our lifetime goals. We love that you do zoom sessions. Thanks for giving us the best experience ever. We love you! ”
“I love Michelle! She is the most prepared PT I have worked with (I’ve had a few over the years). She varies my program every single time we meet and truly cares about her clients. You will be very lucky to have her!”
“Michelle is top-notch. She is an asset to all folks and gyms regardless of age. I’m older and she has made me feel so much younger. Keep her around!”
“Great trainer. Easy process. Now, I need to lighten up on traveling to spend more time with her. She always makes herself available regardless to help me achieve my goals.”
“Amazing! I’ve been running for over 10 years knowing something was wrong with my stride and technique. Within 30 minutes, Michelle changed my entire running form and made it easier to run faster with less effort and less impact on my body. Unbelievable. Also, for our sessions, she always ran side by side with me providing feedback along the way, encouragement, and instruction to get my body and mind in the “learning” mode to learn how to run again. I have used other coaches in the past, but they do not compare to the knowledge understanding and communication skills that Michelle has.
She is now the Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach for my daughter. She has completely turned a new corner and is happier, healthier, and physically stronger. I highly recommend her. ”
“Michelle was an awesome coach! After one session, my form had improved exponentially. Michelle has so much experience as both a runner and a coach she could answer every question and address every concern I had, from form to pace to mentality. You can tell that coaching is not just a job, but a passion for Michelle; she carried my session 30 minutes over the original time with no additional cost because she wanted to make sure I understood the exercises she was showing me. I felt like Michelle was genuinely interested in helping me improve which is why I’m coming back!”
“Michelle is an excellent personal trainer. She was very thoughtful in her approach to my goals and concerns with excellent assessments and training plans. I’m very excited to continue to work with her and highly recommend her to anyone interested.”
“It’s never to late to learn how to run. I am 68 years old, and always wanted to learn. Now, I am using the Galloway Method, and running/walking 4 miles. Without Michelle coaching me, I wouldn’t be out doing this. Need a push, and she is there to do so.”
“Coach Michelle was wonderful! She really understands where I’m struggling and is willing to work with me on exactly what I need. She’s given me extra workouts to do at home to stay fit in other areas, and she is willing to run races and longer runs with clients, which is amazing! I struggle with my long runs, so having someone who is willing to coach me along is exactly what I need. I absolutely recommend Coach Michelle!”
“Coach Michelle was great with my 11-year-old son. He recently was in basketball, and after one session with Coach Michelle, he was competing with kids he couldn’t keep up with before. We would recommend her for sure. Thanks, Coach Michelle.”
“Michelle was amazing and very friendly. I only had to do a couple exercises and run a bit for her to be able to give me tons of suggestions. We ran three miles and the whole time she helped correct my form and kept me motivated. I always have breathing problems while running and with her help that was not even an issue.”
“Michelle is fabulous! I needed someone who was both encouraging and would practically force me to do things out of the box or my comfort zone. She heard me say that and then was exactly what I needed. If you don’t need her to force you for something, she won’t. Michelle is super encouraging, learns when to push and not, and takes you further than you ever imagined that you could go. I’m shocked at where I am in just five weeks!”
“What a fun and motivating session with Coach Michelle. I am excited to keep learning from her to achieve my running and athletic goals.”
“Great start with Coach Michelle! I feel really hopeful that I can train without injury and refine my form as I build the base I need over the next many months to meet my running goals. She was attentive and directed me - I was definitely worked after just our first session.”
“In just the short time of one session, Michelle showed me how my form could improve by just paying attention and changing a few things. I was able to see and feel the difference. She took a video, which helped me visualize the new changes. I highly recommend working with her. ”
“I really enjoyed my session with Michelle. She listened to my concerns and did a great job of demonstrating techniques to improve my problem areas as well as provided guidance on exercises to practice.”
“Michelle adds a great balance of technique work, encouragement and challenge to her training sessions. I’m glad I signed up with her.”
“Really impressed with Michelle. In the first session she gave my daughter so many tips to work with on her running to help increase her speed and shave off several minutes for her 5K without getting injured. We have continued to use Michelle for over a year now, and I’ve even invested in her now on improving my form. She has worked wonders for me as well.”
“I’m so excited! Thank you so much! I finished our session feeling so strong and capable. You’re a very good coach!”
“Coach Michelle was very knowledgeable and made an impact just with the first session. I highly recommend her as a running coach.”
“Coach Michelle is amazing! I’m just starting out and she gave me important instruction about my form, a variety of warm up options, interval and distance information based on our run together and most importantly, explained running cadence! After meeting with Coach Michelle, I feel confident and excited about my running program. Thanks so much, Coach Michelle and I look forward to my progress and more guidance as I continue this journey!”
“Michelle - Thank you so much for all that you have done for me. I consider myself to be incredibly fortunate to have stumbled upon your ad in the Park Hill News. Thank you for pushing me, for your support, your patience and especially your encouragement. I feel the strongest ever. You’ve changed my life, & I am so excited to continue my journey by including running in my regiment. I can’t believe I’ll be running my first marathon soon. Thanks for being my personal trainer and running coach and running with me at the Denver Half. You went above and beyond in your mentoring efforts and it is very much appreciated!”
“Michelle was fantastic. She was willing to be flexible with our meeting location. Once we got together she really walked me through some different things so that I could be a more efficient runner! Cannot wait to work with her more.”
“I had a great first session with Michelle. I learned a lot and she spent time focusing on my form and pace, which is what I’ve had issues on in the past. We also spent time on drills to do when warming up, which I was not very experienced with. I’m looking forward to our future session where I can improve my running even more.”
“Michelle is great - professional, personable, and knowledgeable. She is very quick at responding to emails and text and is flexible in scheduling. I am a total beginner, overweight and out of shape. She was patient and kind and took the time to correct my form, work on my technique, and talk me through the stretches. I look forward to my next session with to work towards my goals and eventually run a half marathon.”
“I’m so glad I met Michelle! She corrected my posture, helped me understand cadence, and pushed me to show me that I could run a 13-minute mile! She has educated me on the importance of running outside vs. the treadmill, dynamic movements, and stretching. I’m super glad I found her!”
“I just started training with Michelle and I can already tell she will be a WONDERFUL coach! During our first training session, after a long hiatus stemming from a bad half marathon, she was super enthusiastic about the sport, understanding, patient, and a great teacher. I am beyond confident that Michelle will help me reach my running goals and I can’t wait to get started.”
“Michelle is wonderful. She is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. My other trainer didn’t make tweaks to help me get stronger, but Michelle varied our sessions to do so. I’m already seeing improvements. I look forward to working out with her because I never know what to expect. It’s always a surprise, and we have so much fun together. She brings out the best in me. ”
“Michelle was wonderful and knowledgeable. I had a good first session. She understands my needs and is willing to work with them. Looking forward to future sessions.”
“Michelle is amazing and will closely partner w/ you. She’s a running coach too.”
“Phenomenal”
“What a great ride it has been. I found Michelle at a time that turned out to be what I really needed. Her friendship and amazing workouts have been the highlight over the past 3 years. With zoom, our workouts have been so full of exciting new exercises from when we met in person. I love that she sometimes goes over an hour to chat and checkin on progress on our off days. My sister, niece and other friend have enjoyed hopping in on the sessions. Michelle is so flexible when we have to change days or times. ”
“It’s been a pleasure working with Michelle. I love her energy; she knows her fitness and trains me and my daughter thoughtfully. I always enjoyed our workouts and conversations- Susie.
Michelle - thank you for all you’ve done keeping us healthy and in shape for the last few years. It’s been a joy being your client and training with you-Devra, Susie’s daughter”
“Don’t know what I would have done without Michelle all these years. I love the workouts. With all my shoulder issues, she found a way to modify. Especially loved the stretches.”
“Michelle is Amazing! For over 10 years, I had serious issues and injuries with my shoulders and hips to the point that I barely could walk. Arthritis played a big part, but also, both the hips and shoulders were injured resulting in surgery. There were no improvements while seeing a physical therapist for years. Michelle introduced me to new and more effective orthopedic exercises and incorporated stretching into all our sessions. Also, she always provided feedback along the way, encouragement, and instruction to get my body and mind in the mode to relearn how to move properly. I am able to sit and stand easily, crisscross my legs, do the pigeon stretch, do push-ups and planks, walk with ease and longer than I ever thought possible. What I love most about my growth is that I’m not intimidated to have others join my sessions. She has gotten me so strong, that I am at their level or outperform them. We do stretch sessions where she puts me on a table and manipulates my body in a way I didn’t know was possible. Now I can do those stretches on my own. ”

“I cannot exaggerate what Michelle has meant to me and to my life. She brought me what I needed and exactly how I needed it. She gave my group a place to be healthy and have fun at the same time. She built a community and made us feel safe in our surroundings with no judgement. For the first time after years of training, I don’t dread working out. Michelle became a priority who I looked forward to seeing weekly, which turned out to be sometimes 3x a week. Michelle is a fun light, great motivator, dedicated teacher and good friend. ”
“Thank you Michelle from the bottom of my heart for everything you’ve done for me. It has been so much more for me than you will ever know. Being a plus size girl, I was always a little embarrassed to go to workout at a gym. Personal trainers always intimidated me, but you made me feel comfortable and strong. Because of you, I workout with confidence. Now, exercising has given me the desire to be more healthy in my life choices. You have been a wonderful impact in my life. ”
“I thank Michelle for her training and friendship over the past three years. She was a lifesaver especially during COVID. I always looked forward to our workouts as they were a great stress release and reduction tool. I also met some amazing new friends when you started growing our class of two and made it up to 8 at times. I now can ski, hike, and enjoy other life activities with ease. I’m grateful for you and for pushing me to new limits. ”
“Michelle helped us deal with our stressful jobs and home-life. She made the environment a safe one. We are good friends, so in addition to getting a great workout, Michelle made it a great time keeping our minds off of everything. ”
“Loved our boxing sessions!!”
“Worked with Coach Michelle remotely. She was extremely knowledgeable regarding all aspects of running and training for a marathon. She also made herself available weekly for consults and answered the many questions I had. When I was injured, she was encouraging and her advice of taking a break but made sure I understood that I was ready for the marathon. It worked out, and I ran my first marathon, the New York, and I did it well. ”
“I don’t know what I would do without Michelle. She kept me consistent with my training, helped me curb my binging, motivated me to add cardio like biking and swimming to my workouts. How she really helped was to be there while my husband declined with his dementia. The workouts were fast paced so I was able to put aside my personal life. Her and I are now really good friends and will be so for a life time. ”
