ART has not only changed my life, but has saved it.
For a long time I was trapped in a cycle of disordered eating and behaviors, self hate, and dysmorphia.
Doing the same harmful things over and over, terrified of shifting my mentality, and only viewing exercise as a punishing means to an end I would never reach. One day I woke up and asked Terri if I should delete my calorie counting app, and she held my hand in that pivotal moment. Through covid we worked together to reach new goals, break old habits, and instill a self confidence I didn’t know was possible.
Three years later l’ve become one of those people who works out for health, performance, and strength.
Together we build the body I’ll be in for the next chapters of my life – Looking hot was just a great side effect of mental growth.
This practice will change you, and if you’ve ever struggled like me, it could save you.

Working with Terri is incredibly effective. For three years I traveled all over the world with rather unpredictable schedule. Having Terri accessible over

Zoom has been the only constant routine I look forward

to.

She’s so skilled and adaptive – always able to find something in my surroundings to use as exercise devices no matter where. I worked quite a bit on specific things with Terri – surf training, posture adjustments, restorative and pain management from sports. Her method is so solid that I always have it in my practice even when I work out on my own.

Terri is so supportive. Stern so you improve, and always so encouraging. At 46, exercise is such an important part of health. I so appreciate how far I have come with her support.

Terri Walsh is a truly excellent trainer.

Outstanding master of her craft; incredibly bright with a treasure trove of health and fitness knowledge; expert and creator of Active Resistance Training which encompasses knowledge based in dance, yoga, martial arts, weight training; and a warm, spontaneous personality that make workouts fun. She is the perfect combination of tough (“Terri you are KILLING me!”) and warm (“Valerie, you are doing SO well”), and she works with the whole person — mentally, emotionally and physically. Because of her efforts, I am stronger and more flexible, I have better balance and most importantly, she provides the perfect scenario for success and sets foundations for a new healthier lifestyle.

Terri is brimming with the brains to help anyone achieve the brawn. She’s the real deal in an industry full of “wannabes” and is the standard by which any trainer should be measured.

Terri is pleasure to train with because she is an expert in her field and a terrific person. She takes time to evaluate the strengths and needs of clients and will create a plan to help you achieve your goals. You will be challenged but you will also feel safe, seen and heard.

Terri is fantastic. She is an innovative, results-driven, and dedicated fitness expert. I highly recommend working with her!

Terri was quite simply the best trainer I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a few. Why was she the best? Well for starters, she knew how to push me in a way that was conducive to my own personality. She was comforting yet strong, pushy yet understanding. She taught you how to listen to your body – to push it to its limits but also to protect it from harm. And she genuinely cared. She was invested in your journey – she cared when you struggled, she celebrated when you succeeded. And it was this general attitude that had me down a full size in a month – not just the working out and the food adjustments, but the fact that I believed I could do it and I had a support system to help me when things got tricky.

Terri is an outstanding trainer in a field where you are never certain what to believe- the fads change with every celebrity that endorses a type of exercise or diet. Terri has an incredible foundational understanding of the body and how to help you reach you true potential. She always helped me push myself and gave me an appreciation for the importance of stretching. I always had full trust in her when we worked together.

Anyone who trains with her can count themselves lucky to get to work with such a knowledgeable person, who also happens to be a wonderful person.

As a former client of Terri Walsh I know her to be a passionate and knowledgeable fitness professional and lots of fun to work with.

Whenever I’m o the east coast she is my choice to train with.

I’ve worked with Terri several times over the past five years. She is my go-to resource when it’s time for me to reevaluate my fitness goals, adjust my workouts because of a crazy schedule, or when I just need to get my butt kicked back into shape. Terri is not only extremely knowledgeable, but she is also one of the most motivating people I know. If vou’re willing to put in the work and follow her instructions, Terri can help you get the results you want.

I have been attending Terri’s classes for the past year and a half and absolutely love what she has to offer. The great thing about Terri’s classes is the personal attention and small class size. It’s like getting your own personal trainer without the heafty price tag!

Terri’s workouts and work ethics are top notch. She will get you results and you will have lots of fun doing it!

Terri got me great results in a short period of time. It was a complete program and I was in the best shape ever! I would use Terri and her team again.

Terri is a true professional and has consistently delivered over and above my expectations from a trainer. As well as providing varied and innovative workouts, she is also very caring and willing to help out at any time. Highly recommended both on a professional and personal level.

I worked with Teri to get in shape for my wedding and couldn’t have been more pleased with the results. Teri is a true professional, incredibly knowledgable and taught me a whole new approach to fitness.

She is incredibly motivating and her ART

Method works, you really do get results and feel great. I would recommend Teri to anyone looking for superb attention to detail and great training/small group bootcamps.

I have been training with Terri for a year and a half. I can’t say enough good things about working with her. I have never been able to stick with a gym or trainer, but love coming to her classes. Terri designs the classes to benefit each individual. They are super challenging and results driven. She is alwavs available for support, advice and meal planning. If you want to change your body just listen to Terri she will get you there!

I started training with Terri in 2008. I’m about to turn 50, and I’m in the best shape of my life. That’s not a coincidence — though I’ll admit it took me a while to fully appreciate what I was actually building. I also continue to fight her every step of the way, but I know she has my best interests at heart. She wins. Every time.
I came in with real stakes. Heart disease runs in my family, along with other conditions I had every reason to be worried about. I wasn’t looking for someone who’d put me through generic circuits and hand me a protein shake. I needed a trainer who understood that what I was doing in the gym was, for me, preventative healthcare. Terri got that immediately.
Over nearly two decades, she’s built and rebuilt my program around active resistance, strength, and mobility, adjusting it every time my life, my body, or my attitude changed. She tracks everything, coaches me on diet, and pushes me past the limits I’d comfortably set for myself. She’s also refreshingly honest. If I can do more, she tells me. If I’m making excuses, she notices that too.
The result is that I’m approaching a milestone birthday that a lot of people dread, and I feel genuinely prepared for the next 20 years. The consistency Terri built into my routine has compounded in ways I couldn’t have predicted in my 30s. That’s what 17 years of the right training actually looks like.
If you’re younger and think this kind of investment is something you’ll get around to eventually: I’m the proof that eventually doesn’t work out the way you planned. And if you’re already past 50 and think you’ve missed the window, you haven’t. Terri’s methods are specifically designed to meet you where you are, not where you were. The best time to start is now. She’s who I’d trust to get you there.

Terri and her apprentices are definitely experts in their field. Aside from the wonderful results, I’ve come away with knowledge that will guide me for a lifetime. I would recommend TW Training to anyone wanting a real change in their health and their lives!

In 2024 I went searching for NYC based trainers who were experienced in working with menopausal women over 50. Terri popped up at the top of the search. I’ve been working with her for over 2.5 years. From our very first consultation to our 3 sessions a week, she has become a trusted and devoted part of my life and my health and fitness journey. It makes no difference that I am in NYC and Terri is in Costa Rica. Our Zoom sessions are personalized to my needs, challenging and diverse. Terri is expert at describing, demonstrating and tweaking the exercises in real time to make sure that I am doing them properly and safely. Terri has
taught me so much about fitness and nutrition for my stage in life and she also provides workouts I can do outside of our scheduled sessions and recipes and nutrition advice. She has helped me lose weight, lose inches and more importantly, she has improved my mobility and I have built up muscle, endurance and overall flexibility. She is understanding of the needs of working professionals and is very flexible and supportive when I have to travel. We always find
a way to adapt our schedules when needed.

She is truly an expert in her field and a very special person. I cannot recommend her highly
enough.
