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!
