After 10 years of military service, I started working with Rui while harboring quite an assortment of physical imbalances, muscle tightness, and a shoulder injury that had never properly healed. These issues had caused the progression of my physical performance to plateau. Rui was logical and consistent in her methodology to address all of my issues. Not only did she explain to me the proper way to execute the exercises but, she also armed me with information about body mechanics and nutrition — knowledge that I have used to improve my lifestyle decisions. After 9 months with Rui, each week I am continually amazed at what my body is able to do. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch trainer.
