TESTIMONIALS. 

I’ve been training with JoJoy off and on for over 5 years. As a yoga teacher and former ultra runner with a rebuilt knee, I cannot imagine doing it without her support. She brings fun, focus, energy and a depth of wisdom on wellness and longevity that is so often missing in training for quick results. She is responsive to my immediate goals when I need to shed weight, and puts me on track holistically to my long term goals, building my physical strength and mental strength together, and inspiring me to a higher level of health, which ripples out to my life in ways I am so grateful for: more confidence, mental strength, commitment to myself, and what's important in my life. She is not just a joy, she is a force. A holistic one who walks the talk and shares because she can't keep this gift to herself. One of the most authentic and inspiring people I know.

Personal Goals: toning and longevity

When I started my weight loss program with Jo, based off a questionnaire I answered, she developed a diet and exercise plan for me that worked!! Not only did it work, it was totally manageable.  And even in the days where I was feeling as if I hit a wall, she was there to guide me through the feelings and frustration. She is a great listener and truly heard me in those moments. She listened and asked me questions about what I was eating, what exercise I was doing, and would tweak my personal program to fit whatever barriers I thought I had. With her support, I would get over those hurdles every time! 

I started working with Jo a year ago and have lost between 25-30 lbs. I have been able to maintain my weight for the first time in a very long time! I’m so grateful to have joined Jo’s program. I’m turning 44 and haven’t felt this good for a long time! I’ve gained so much more confidence and an overall sense of happiness.

I found Jo Joy when I was looking to make my sore knee better and stronger and also wanted to work on my upper body strength. My progress impressed me. Each week I was a little stronger. 

When I was invited to try a 3 week cleanse with Jo Joy I said "yes". That was over a year ago and the changes I made are still with me today. I lost 10 lbs, improved my relationship with sugar and carbohydrates, and still practice some of the things I learned during the cleanse.

Jo inspires you to try to be a healthier you but she also understands that it is not easy and you may falter along the way. 

I got so much more out of that 3-week cleanse then I ever imagined possible.

Personal Goals: Increase upper body strength, stabilize knee, reduce lower back pain

Jo’s positivity and encouragement motivated me to stick with my program when I wanted to resolve chronic foot pain. I knew what I needed to do, but wanted the support and accountability to see results within three months before a surf trip I had planned. The stretching and strengthening techniques were sometimes painful but I always felt amazing afterwards. I feel more confident in understanding how to resolve my pain quickly and avoid reinjury.

Personal Goals: Reduce foot pain, strengthen feet

Anxiety was starting to become a real issue for me. Jo had some great insight and techniques that helped me put those issues to bed. Everything from the breathing exercises to do while walking, workouts, and all-natural supplements, Jo’s recommendations really made a huge impact on helping me achieve a healthier and more natural lifestyle. Her down to earth approach has helped me deal with my issues at the present time and are tools I will use for years to come.
