Yes, Eve has been an accredited, certified personal trainer, since 2004, from the American Council on Exercise (ACE). Professionally she has 20 years of experience in the fitness industry thus providing the experience necessary to work with various types of clients (which she had found to be challenging, exciting and purposeful). You will be in amazing hands as you work together as a team to unlock the possibilities you are seeking. Our hope is that when a client chooses to work with Eve they get the best-of-the-best, life-changing, and habit-forming experiences everyone deserves when they work with a trainer. The propagation of social media “trainers” and the tragic advice and baseless programs recklessly spewing from all corners of the internet have spoiled the integrity of fitness and nutrition sciences. We want to right this wrong and truly help our clients make the "wanted" and "needed" changes they are seeking. Many people have been duped into fads, gimmicks or tricks looking for a quick fix. Our cultural expectation for instant gratification and immediate results with little or no effort has been preyed upon by the industry. There is no quick fix or magic diet. Period. You do have to put in the effort and make better health-based decisions.

Training sessions are generally 45 to 60 minutes. However, requests for alternate lengths of time can be discussed during your initial consultation.

Most of our clients cherish their privacy and are working on or have worked to reach specific goals for themselves. We plan to keep their privacy intact. Additionally, we believe that everyone is in a different place physically and psychologically and the body you see in a picture used for marketing is not yours. Comparing yourself to others should not be a prime motivation. Here at Black Door personal training, we promote and motivate the individual. We feel a person should compare themselves to themselves - as that is the real measure of personal progress! You have a unique genetic makeup, fitness level, and sensitivity to exercise and because of this your results are your own. The more we get a client to focus on themselves and not others the greater the change! We choose not to exploit our clients and promote or prolong the fitness scams plaguing the internet and media today. Additionally, we dislike manipulative and disingenuous marketing, and the fitness industry is notorious for this, and we want nothing to do with that. There is nothing more noble than working with others who are working towards being the best version of themselves and not someone else.

We have various plans to choose from. When you schedule your consultation, you will address this question specifically. Taking into consideration goals, time-frame to meet those goals, finances, and personal needs when choosing what is best for you. Most find 2-3 times a week for 3-6 months an effective use of their resources. We also have clients who pay for single training sessions to supplement their weekly training plan. We can work with you at whatever capacity you need depending on time availability and client load.

Depending on the type of injury and the stage of healing, we can create programs that limit or avoid stress to the affected site. We can also develop corrective exercise strategies to improve mobility, joint stabilization, connective tissue strength, and flexibility. We can work within a doctor’s recommendations when needed and necessary. This is when years of personal training come into action! We want to help those who are overcoming and pushing through a challenge. So don't let an injury stop you from progressing. However, no corrective exercise or post-rehabilitation program we offer is intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any disease or mechanical malalignment. Within our scope of practice, we will work with you to fine-tune a progressive program that works to inhibit overactive musculature, stimulate under-active muscle structures, activate biomechanical efficiency, and integrate compound movements to enhance functionality. Whatever plan is chosen we give you leeway to use those sessions before they expire.

Yes! We do offer the option to purchase additional training sessions if we feel these added sessions may improve your success toward your goals. Additional training sessions may be purchased starting from $39/session (differing lengths of training time are available per request). These sessions can be purchased as a single session or in packages. Additional sessions are mostly used for exercise technique correction in a live virtual setting for real-time feedback. You may also use these training sessions to schedule supplemental nutrition guidance or habit modification programming. Keep in mind, these sessions may be subject to availability depending on our client load at that specific time. Speak with us for details if you feel the extra support and professional guidance would benefit you.

Yes! We work with semi-private up to 4 individuals in a small group during training sessions at your home. The CPT will come to you if you live within a certain distance from Black Door Personal Training. Our at home sessions are 1-on-1, semi-private and maybe up to 4 per session. Because of the individual nature of each person’s unique condition and goals, the initial virtual call and consult needs to be 1-on-1 and weekly calls are individual. However, training can be done together, which allows for lower costs per person for the training sessions. The virtual in-person check-ins will be scheduled in advance.

We recommend the initial 3 months of training be virtual. This means all sessions are done virtually, check-ins are virtual, and calls be consistent through the first 3 months. After the trainer and you feel you've built the proper strength foundation, form and technique are spot on and nutrition is fine-tuned clients can then turn to more independent training plans because your fitness foundation has been established.

Our subscriptions plans are cancelled anytime. All other plans are packaged based with a time limit for the sessions to be used before sessions are not available.
