CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Elese taught a class for our bachelor party at a rental to a group with varying yoga experience. Her energy was upbeat, instructions were detailed, and music was on point. She provided mats and all we had to do was roll out of bed. It was tons of fun , a great day starter, and a welcome change of pace to some of the other weekend activities. I couldn’t recommend it enough. - Ian K
I started taking Elese's yoga class in 2024 at Black Swan and was hooked from the first class! Her classes are high-energy and challenging. I look forward to them every week. She is great about offering modifications and encouraging you to try new poses without pushing anyone beyond their skill level. When I found out she did personal training, two friends and I decided to start training with her. It's been a fantastic experience. She listened to our goals and concerns and tailored workouts to fit. Elese is focused on correct form and technique, which is so important to me. Her training sessions are challenging, educational, and fun (even when I'm dying after a finisher). I would recommend Elese in a heartbeat -- for yoga and personal training! - Hannah S
Hiring Elese as my personal trainer has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She truly listens, tailors each workout to fit your lifestyle, and cares about your progress. In every session, she strikes the perfect balance between encouragement and challenge; pushing you to grow while making it fun. I genuinely look forward to our workouts every week! - Gwen O
Elese has completely changed the way I move and show up for myself, both on the mat and in the gym. I stumbled into one of her yoga classes at Black Swan in January 2024, and immediately knew I’d found something special. Her energy is magnetic, and her classes strike the perfect balance between strength, intention, and play. Whether you’re new to yoga or seasoned, she creates space for everyone to feel challenged and supported. After a year of being her Black Swan client, I learned she also did personal training and knew I had to give it a try. Two friends and I started training with her, and it’s been the best decision. She genuinely listens to your goals, meets you where you are, and helps you push past what you thought you were capable of, all while making sure your form and technique are on point. Every session leaves me feeling stronger, more confident, and yes, totally wiped in the best way. Whether you’re looking for yoga, strength training, or a mix of both, Elese brings so much knowledge, heart, and intention to everything she does. I’m so glad I found her! - Alyssa M.
