Joselle Gacusan Personal Trainer

Best trainer ever! She is amazing and works her clients hard without being intimidating. I’m in way better shape than I’ve ever been both inside and out. I can’t say enough about her! I started working with Joselle a few months ago and she has really helped me get into shape. I changed my eating habits and learned how to do some awesome push ups. She has given me confidence to do the work outs on my own on days that I don’t see her. She is super encouraging and even texts after the workout to say good job. If you want to make a change see Joselle!

I WISH I WAS STILL TRAINING WITH JOSELLE!
I was referred to her by a friend that has been working with Joselle for months and has literally transformed and toned her entire physique. She was sweet and squeezed me in for a consultation and into as many sessions I could get in to look good for a last minute wedding in less than 3 weeks.
Ultimately, I stayed with her for a total of three months and when she did my body fat measurements and weight — I stayed the same weight but lost about an inch to two inches around my shoulders, bust, thighs and waste. My glutes were the only part that actually increased a tiny bit (YES!) — probably because of the amazing amounts of squats and dead lifts she had me do.
Joselle goes by 80% diet, 20% exercise. This is something she will guide you in but you have to put the work into eating right on your own. One thing for sure is that when you’re in the gym with her, be prepared to learn what a real squat and a real lunge is. Apparently, I have been doing this wrong my whole life and just doing 3 sets of squats and lunges for her to gauge my level during my consultation, I couldn’t even walk down the stairs for MUNI.
She will slim you and tone you. Best thing is I never did free weights, kettle bells and bar bells and those are my new FAVORITE tools to use at the gym I just joined to keep up the progress I’ve made with Joselle. I’m up in the weight section with all the buff dudes like WHAT and judging their form now.

Joselle is amazing! Since working out with her my body has been transformed. I have so much more upper body strength and my posture has improved giving me less neck and shoulder tension. She is amazing at encouraging you to go farther than what you thought your limits were, but also knows how to keep you safe in your technique. Her attention to detail is fantastic.
I use to lift weights by myself for months without seeing results and never really feeling like I worked out. When I work with Joselle I can feel some soreness the next day. She’s trained me so well that when I attempt to work out on my own, I can do it correctly and efficiently and now I too am sore the next day after my own workouts.
I now have tools for strength building too that I can use anywhere, even when I travel and don’t have access to a gym.
I’d highly recommend Joselle for getting your body on track and having someone teach you how to take care of your body that will last the rest of your life.

I have really enjoyed working with Joselle! Her attention to form has me working better inside and outside of the gym. You couldn’t ask for a nicer and more understanding person to work with.

Joselle is a phenomenal personal trainer. My husband and I have been working with her for several years now. We initially trained with her together as a pair and despite our different body types and endurance levels, she was able to cater each session to meet both of our needs and help us set and reach individual goals. Since we had our daughter a year and a half ago, we have continued seeing her individually. I can honestly say that she is equally effective in both paired and individual settings. She is flexible, creative and makes every single minute in a session count.
I am always amazed by Joselle’s extensive understanding of the human body. There is no question she can’t answer and her background in physical therapy allows her to immediately identify causes and solutions to any aches or pains I’m having. In addition, her vast knowledge of and passion for nutrition has been educational and inspiring. She truly cares about her clients and I have come to regard her as a friend. Even still, she maintains a high level of professionalism and never lets chatting interfere with our sessions (this is a complaint that many friends of mine have about their personal trainers).
I am the type of person that has always dreaded working out. Joselle has a positive and upbeat energy that makes our sessions truly enjoyable — I am always in a good mood when I leave. As someone who has never stuck to a workout regimen for more than a few months, the fact that I have continued training with Joselle for years speaks volumes about her! The workouts are never boring or redundant and we are always doing something new and challenging.
Due to personal time constraints, I have recently only been able to train once a week. And yet I am STILL seeing real results. This one session keeps my body strong, my mind balanced and gives me the energy I need to chase after my toddler all day long. I am so grateful to Joselle!

I started working with Joselle about 8 months ago after rehabilitating from adrenal fatigue and a rotated pelvic cage. It was one of the best decisions I made in 2013. I knew I was weak, but didn’t realize how much potential my body — and health — had to grow, change, and become stronger. Her knowledge of physiology is extensive and she makes certain to understand where I’m at in order to tailor an optimal workout session for me. She truly cares about her clients and I appreciate her holistic approach and understanding of the importance of nutrition and integrative medicine. Joselle truly is a person of excellence and integrity in her profession; she is not just a skilled personal trainer, she has a positive outlook on life, and is fun-​loving and compassionate. Eight months later I have more energy, better alignment, less pain, and more stamina.

Joselle is a top notch personal trainer, that is results orientated with an eye for her patients well being. She is a great motivator and knows how to get every ounce out of her clients. I can feel the difference every time when I work with her. On top of her knowledge and credibility, she has a terrific personality — as up beat and positive.
My favorite thing about Joselle is that she is very invested in getting you to your goals. Ever since working with Joselle it has made me realize how attainable my goals are. She is a real game changer.
Thanks Joselle!

I decided to see Joselle because I felt I had hit a plateau in the group and individual training I had been doing on my own.
She started the session with a thorough discovery session so she could get a feel for how I had trained in the past, what I was training for in the future, how I ate, what kind of care I took to recover from workouts, etc. I had never met with a trainer that asked questions in such detail about my other activities, so I was instantly impressed. That let me know right away that Joselle takes her role very seriously and the results as well.
I loved my sessions with Joselle and it gave me a lot of great ideas to use for myself during the times I couldn’t work out with her. After our sessions I felt motivated and I broke through the plateaus that I had previously reached within a few weeks.
Whether you’ve been stagnant for awhile or are already in great shape, you can definitely benefit from some time with Joselle!

Oh Joselle! Well I can say training with her is a delightful awakening of the body! I know that sounds all hippie dippie but, for real I have always poked fun at people that hire trainers and after opening a business in my mid 30’s I know realize I judged too soon.
After 2 years of drinking and eating my stress away I hit the wall and decided it was time for change. I met Joselle at the new business and we got to talking about training and what she did for a living. Her passion for it and more importantly her drive to really help people reach their goals stuck with me. I ended up booking a consultation and was committed to changing my ways. She did an assessment and took some measurements… And was so considerate of my reality. Shortly after i signed up and its been great! She always says don’t worry about the number and focus on the stretch and form!
I don’t want to to be long winded so I will finish by saying if you are looking for a trainer that you feel really comfortable with check out Joselle at SkyeFit and see how you can beat the body blues! You be educated, worked out, and maybe even laugh a little while you do it! Enjoy.
Ps. And killer results;)

I really enjoyed my workouts with Joselle. She always pushed me to get through the exercises not letting me give in as I usually am inclined to do when I’m working out at home. She is that extra motivation I needed and she helped me gain a better understanding of how to workout the right way and what parts of my body or muscles I was working out with a given exercise. Aside from the working out aspect she also made time to talk about my nutrition which was also really useful. I recommend her to anyone who really wants to get more fit, learn to workout the right way, and lead a healthier lifestyle in general!

I cannot say enough about Joselle. She is the first personal trainer I have worked with and I feel lucky to have found such an all-​around star on the first try. In the past, I could never justify the expense of a trainer as I felt like I knew what to do, I just had to discipline myself to actually do it. Joselle taught me new exercises and challenged me to lift heavier weights with fewer reps. She is serious about the work out yet still relaxed and really wants to get to know you as a person. As some of the other reviewers mention, she has a holistic approach and will discuss nutrition and stress reduction tips in addition to the workout. I referred my husband to Joselle and he now works out with her weekly. We have different fitness goals and the fact that we have both seen great results with Joselle is a testament to her ability. You owe it to yourself to set up an appointment with Joselle today!

I started with working with Joselle as I was recovering from surgery on my foot. I was hesitant to get back into the gym given the pain from my surgery recovery. It has been just three weeks of working with Joselle, and I’ve seen my strength increase and have regained my confidence.
Joselle has tailored each workout to fit my needs, and she modifies the exercises to be cognizant of my foot. She pushes me to the extent she knows my body is capable, which makes our time so much more effective than if I was working out on my own. During our first session together, I could hardly do a few pushups and was favoring my ‘good’ foot considerably. I am now able to do many more pushups consecutively and have seen the number of pushups I can do steadily increase with each session.
Joselle is encouraging, positive, and knowledgeable in what she does. She helps me focus on isolating different muscles and guides me in the mechanics of each exercise. I’ve been able to work muscles that I never knew I even had!
I look forward to each of my workouts with Joselle and am so excited to see what the next few weeks/​months will bring!

Joselle is great. I have worked with her and had immediate responses. I even do some of the exercises she taught me at home on my own.
I can just highly recommend her to everyone, who wants to start training or is an athlete. She is very intuitive and knowledgeable.

I went to see Joselle because of chronic back pain. I consider myself an athlete and couldn’t get over a chronic back injury. She tailored a workout for me every time I saw her and focused on engaging my core in every exercise. She’s creative and specific! The workouts she came up with all related to my activities. I definitely recommend Joselle!

First of all, I’m shocked Joselle doesn’t have 100– 5 star reviews! She is the best trainer I’ve ever worked with and brings so much to her clients… and ALL her clients LOVE HER!
This is what she’s done for me after just 6 weeks
I see her 2 x per week and do nothing else.
–I’ve lost inches everywhere (I don’t know numbers because I ask her not to tell me. But I’ve dropped a size, and I have visible definition all over! She also said I lost weight… but again, the scale and numbers drive me nuts.
–I no longer have back pain!!!
–I my neck pain is gone, too!!!
–I can do lots of REAL push-​ups. something 11 years of being a gym rat never helped me do!
–I feel like a million bucks. I don’t have to worry about when/​how to get my exercise done. I know that I have 2 appointments already scheduled and that Joselle will take care of the rest… I just have to show-​up and do what she says. and try my best.
–I use to exercise SO MUCH and never got these kind of results. I was a competitive athlete for 11 years for goodness sakes!
Now I send all my clients who want to lose weight to her. I help them with their diet and Joselle shapes them and makes them stronger, leaner, and a better fat burner.
Joselle, I can’t thank you enough and I can’t believe I didn’t start working with you sooner. You are worth every penny and then some. It’s really a no– brainer!

I usually just play on soccer and tennis teams to motivate myself to workout on a regular basis, I ended up never reaching my goals that I was seeking until I had met Joselle. Joselle changed my life, simple as that. As a former Division 1 athlete at the College of William and Mary, I thought I had done it all… spinning, crossfit, p90x, cardio challenges, you name it. However, I had never felt better about my body and health until after 2 months of training with her. Even better, she really catered the workout to my needs and lifestyle. Her work ethic is above and beyond, it’s really incredible to witness her passion. Words don’t do her justice, I highly recommend Joselle as a personal trainer.
