Testimonials

"Elinn is the best personal trainer I have experienced. She genuinely cares about her clients immediate as well as long term health (avoiding undue stress on joints etc). Using a myriad of different exercises, she continuously pushes one to achieve new limits and levels of strength, endurance and control whilst maintaining a fine balance & patience of never over doing it. Elinn helped me to recover my health from a long term illness, correct my posture ... and loose a total of 15kg in a gradual and sustainable way. I look and feel great, with an abundance of energy to enjoy life!"

My intensive rowing and other sports in my younger days left me with a bad posture, several incidents of slipped discs and general back pain for many years. 

I started seeing an osteopath in Paris and continued to do that when I came to Singapore and this helped me to keep these issues in check. My meeting with Elinn earlier this year has completely transformed me and I still can't believe that in 12 sessions, Elinn has built my core to the extent that I no longer have back pain, my shoulder and knee injuries have gone away and I can stand up virtually all day with no problem! 

Elinn has a very special approach....she is totally focused on listening carefully to what's going on and starting very slowly to build core strength. She shared her detailed plan with me every step of the way, filmed me doing my exercises so that I could do them at home and even coordinated with my Osteopath Lucy to make sure they were both on the same wavelength. She taught me the value of doing my exercises with control and focus rather than speed, which has been the key to my improvement. How is that for a coaching approach? 
Elinn is always is 100% present and attentive whenever I go for a session and I know she is totally with me in helping to improve. All of this is exceptionally unusual. 

I can recommend Elinn without hesitation to anyone who is looking for a totally dedicated professional trainer and coach who can transform your fitness levels and body strength! Thanks Elinn.

"For a long time, I've been struggling with my body image. It doesn't exactly help when your mom is a health nut and she criticises your body, which makes you feel even more ashamed. And I always put working out off because I'm always so tired after class. But now that I'm about to graduate and my current part-time job has flexible hours, I decided to REALLY DO IT. Trust me, it wasn't easy. I worked out twice a week & Elinn even put me on this no sugar diet with just simple carbs, veg and protein. Honestly it wasn't that bad. Loads of my friends have asked me "omg alex, how can you NOT have any chocolate?" And I just shrug at them. 

I started out this new regime of mine in early jan and lemme say, the results were amazing. I dropped down 2 dress sizes and I was able to fit into clothes that I couldn't wear last time. My arms are more tone so I can wear short sleeve shirts whoop whoop! My friends noticed the difference and I was very happy that it was noticeable! And because I've gotten more toned, I'm able to go around town in clothes that fit me, show off my body and not feel ashamed at all because I feel so good about myself and my body. It's very satisfying to see your results pay off. I've been with Elinn for at least 7 years but I've never truly WORKED out so much with her before. As a trainer, she really understands your needs and wants. Thank you so much for the last 2 months! Here's to more working out with you in the future!"

Elinn has been my awesome personal trainer. I like her no nonsense approach and deep knowledge on how the body works. She focuses on the part that needs improvement. I had my ACL surgery and as a result my left knee was weaker than my right one. Training with her not only makes me stronger but also motivates me to be better in everything that we do. I never forget what she told me “remember, you are what you repeatedly do”. Thanks Elinn!"

"I've been exercising for approximately 3 years. Most of my workouts consisted of HIIT cardio and mild weight training. However, after about 2 years, it got to a point where it felt like my workouts no longer had any effect. I would no longer sweat - even if I pushed myself, and my gains started to plateau. I tried to look up different workouts, but it all felt the same and I began to lose interest in exercise.

A couple of weeks ago, a friend recommended me Elinn as a personal trainer, as well as the gym. I actually live in the UK, and have been to a couple of 'top notch and expensive' gyms - and I can honestly say that this gym pretty much as everything! On weekends I go with a relative to Fitness First, and I actually prefer this gym.

So I attended my first personal training class with Elinn. In the past I had considered taking up personal training, but got too nervous. However, Elinn made me feel comfortable with her presence FAST. Hand on heart, I was drenched in my sweat. She corrected my form, pushed me to do my best, and I could actually feel the CORRECT target muscles working during the exercises she gave me (e.g. felt squats more in my back than my legs or glutes).

I now include the workouts and exercise she's taught me into my everyday training, and I love every one of them. Especially the moves that we did during the session for my arms! My arms are one of the places I have particular trouble in shedding fat - but I know that as long as I keep at it, I will definitely improve!

I would highly recommend Elinn! The only thing you would have to lose is not taking that leap to finally getting the body you've always wanted. Oh - my body also ached the next day, something that my body hasn't done in almost a year! Very happy!"

"I've been training with Elinn for over 8 years, and I have always enjoyed her focus on full body training, pain and injury prevention, and overall health. She keeps me motivated and adapts her training to my needs. With all my travel, she also prepares programs that I can manage on my own while abroad.
I definitely recommend training with Elinn: she's tough but fun!"

-James Marshall

Elinn is my trainer for the past months. I went to her with pains on the left side of my body from head to toe and she designed a program to help me train and build my muscles throughout. Although the journey took a while but today I no longer have those pain in my body anymore and my range of motions has improved tremendously. 

Without her I might have to go for some operations to get rid of the pain in my foot as I was finding it hard to walk or even stand on my feet. But thanks to her, I am well now.

I share the same believe as Elinn that we need to exercise and maintain our body to go through old age - to age well and have a good life!

-Pauline Low

Elinn is an intuitive, insightful, and articulate trainer whose respectful approach towards pain makes me feel safe even as she is guiding me into new challenges. Severe back pain led me to seek her out almost six months ago, and not once have I regretted signing on as her client. She has a systematic way of taking my strength to new levels, and spends time explaining in precise detail what each exercise entails anatomically. Elinn also operates in a highly dialogic mode, such that the training experience that emerges is a collaboratively constructed one. I have always found gyms intimidating. Thanks to Elinn, I now look forward to visiting one every week!

The last thing I want to do is to exercise more when dr says 'you have immune psoriatic arthritis and will always have knee pain'. 

But this perspective is changed forever when my good friend E introduced me to my PT Elinn, ya both E, by no means coincidental, a divine appointment. 

So Elinn started training me half a year ago and I begin to see myself getting stronger and body start to change (that's a good side effect) haha! Dr reduced my medication and the monthly jabs needed are now stretched to bi-monthly!

What I love about her routines is that they make me conscious about my daily life as well, carrying ntuc grocery bags, climbing down stairs, lifting heavy stuff..I became mindful of my posture and the correct techniques so as not to exert pressure on my bones and body. 'Use your muscles!' She always reminds me. 

Thank you dear Elinn. Really appreciate what you are doing for me. And to you out there who think that once you have an autoimmune condition, hey, don't let that put you down, see Elinn and let her condition you to a pristine condition that you would never dream of getting. I am getting there!

-Audrey Koh

“My personal trainer, Elinn, really motivates me to work hard on my fitness and helps me achieve goals that I never thought possible!!! (One hand burpees!!! One leg burpees!!!) She is very knowledgable and teaches you the correct ways and techniques to perform the exercises. The atmosphere in the gym is very friendly and the equipments are all great qualities. I really look forward to the sessions and would highly recommend anyone to join. Thank you Elinn!”

-Aaliyah Ali

“I hate going to the gym - I find it incredibly boring and I don’t last 2 min on a treadmill. Elinn changed all that when she designed exercise regimes that suit my lifestyle goals. I love dancing and skiing and she was able to customize programs that improve my fitness and strength to enable me to move better and without pain. Totally recommend her if you want to move better and connect with your body. "

- Lyn Lee

"I known Elinn since her Physical Abuse days..n yes..it has been ages. Elinn is a very hard core trainer who takes no nonsense. Failure to do an exercise she has in mind for the client is not an option. She has that confidence n foresight.

What remained so clearly in my mind was the one time when my daughter, Jen, got very sick while training with Elinn. Fortunately Charlotte who was working there, came to examine n worked on her. What really touched me to the core was Elinn paid for Charlotte services which was totally unheard of. This blown my mind away and it just showed what kind of person Elinn is.

She is such a tough trainer who also has an extremely soft and caring side...if anyone needs a gym to go to..or a personal training..choosing E's fitness will the best choice."

-Stella Tan

 "Elinn was my trainer for three years in Singapore. She was recommended to me by my Physiotherapist as part of my post-injury rehabilitation. I decided to have Elinn as my personal trainer after the rehab work.

Elinn tailored a routine for me to meet my fitness goals which was better than any other trainer I have used in the past. She is thoughtful, creative and deeply passionate about training and I have no reservation to highly recommend her to anyone looking for an A+ personal trainer."

-Alan A

Elinn, is a super rare personal trainer. I call her a specialist in her field, who is able to help people who suffer from chronic pain & disability - gain mobility, reduce pain, gain confidence & ultimately have a better quality of life. A warm hearted & sensitive trainer who knows just exactly how much to push so that you walk out feeling like you’ve achieved a little more, surely, day by day. She is one of the great women I am blessed to know.
