You are an awesome coach! I wouldn’t be anywhere near my fitness goals if it wasn’t for you! You take the time to thoroughly explain the movements and the muscle groups that you are working, which helps people understand why we are doing a certain exercise. You always come to class with a great attitude and are constantly pushing me to do my best even if I feel like stopping. I also love how you try to switch up the classes and ask for our opinions/feedback. I remember when I first started coming to the gym and was skeptical about participating in the classes. Once I began coming to class, it definitely exceeded my expectations

Working with Coach Khari has been an enriching experience. She takes the time out to get to know her clients individually. Allowing us to build a relationship with each other and ultimately create a line of communication during my fitness journey. I appreciate her attention to detail and being so accommodating to my personal needs. This made my workouts feel more catered directly to me, keeping me motivated to stick with the plan. I’d recommend Khari to anyone looking to make a change within themselves. She is very supportive, informative and patient. She is a great motivator and wants the best for each of her clients.

I came in for a consultation due to a physical restriction in my hip. It was extremely limiting. I could not squat down and get up unassisted. My hip restriction came as a result of my foot injury from 9 years ago. Every year after that my mobility got worse. Khari impressed me with her thorough knowledge of the human anatomy as well as her attentive listening skills. I have worked with Khari for a series of sessions. I have made amazing strides in my overall mobility. Working with Khari has helped me to regain movement in my hip, reduced the pain level, and increased my strength.
