Megan has changed my life and I'm not sure she even realizes it. In a good way, of course! Megan has been the first personal trainer that I've ever worked with and it's been a great experience so far. She's inviting and I did not feel intimidated at all and she made me feel as though I belonged. Our first session felt natural and not awkward at all which I appreciate. I'm always so nervous stepping into something new especially a new gym but this was a different experience and a good one at that. When Megan and I first chatted, she listened to me and heard my needs which is why our focus over the last six weeks has been about strength. Megan pushes me (without being pushy, lol) and keeps me accountable. She's observant and makes coaching corrections to ensure that I'm focusing on the right target areas for the day's workout and for my safety. I am currently 8 months PP (after an emergency C-section) focusing on rebuilding my strength physically, emotionally and mentally. Megan has helped me find myself again after combating grief, pregnancy loss, trauma, SAD, and PPD/PPA over the last 4 (almost 5) years and I could not be more grateful for her time, commitment to my program and for helping me rebuild not only my physical strength but other areas of my life as well. You should absolutely work with Megan!

Megan is a fantastic choice for a personal trainer for anyone - from beginner to more advanced! She is highly trained, attentive, and creates realistic, tailored programs suited to your needs and goals. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with her over the past 6 months and learning from her balanced yet thorough approach. She’s helped me with strength and mobility and just overall feeling good in my body. I’ve seen real changes and moved progressively closer to my goals with her support. I really like the format and tracking aspect of her Google doc system. Aside from being a great trainer, she’s also a lovely person and has great recipe tips, too!

I reached out to Megan at the beginning of my fitness journey with a goal in mind. Megan has not only helped my get closer and closer to my goal, but has helped me fall in love with exercise again after a difficult past with it. I always enjoy my sessions working out with Megan and I love the program she has created for me. Megan has helped me work through my relationship with food and I finally feel like I have a sustainable relationship with eating. I'm truly grateful for all of the time she has spent working with me and helping me to achieve my fitness and overall health goals.

When training with Megan her variety of exercises is great and doesn’t make you feel exhausted or bored with repetition. The time flies! After training for a few months I feel stronger and more capable of working out and pushing my boundaries. I’ve learned that no matter what barriers I had postpartum physically, it’s always possible to move and get stronger!

Megan is an outstanding personal trainer. I have only been working with her for about 3 months and I’ve seen so much progress in not only my physical health but also my lifestyle & attitude towards fitness. Her approach really revolves around creating an overall healthy lifestyle and her coaching is so much more than just training sessions. She really enforces having a positive attitude towards your body & the way you eat, which is an approach that is so refreshing and motivating because it really works! She also checks in with you regularly and really takes your goals into consideration when creating your training program. Megan is definitely one of the best trainers in NYC!

Inspirational, knowledgeable, and organized; Megan is one heck of a trainer. Having worked with her remotely from NYC and in person in San Diego, I’ve benefited from her straightforward and effective coaching and training methods for years! Would definitely recommend Megan and Coastal Strength Collective for anyone, but especially for busy professionals who don’t think they ‘have the time’ as Megan (and her fun social content) have kept me on track and motivated!

Megan is an AMAZING trainer! Thanks to her, my love for the gym came back. I love that her workouts are personalized for me, which a lot of trainers in NYC don’t do. She breaks down each workout and provides motivation to achieve more. I love her spirit and energy!!! She is a one of a kind and I highly recommend her, especially when you are starting your fitness journey.

I used to be the laziest couch potato you could find. Working out? Nah, not my thing. But all that changed when I found my incredible personal trainer. Megan worked her magic and turned me into someone who actually enjoys moving around and breaking a sweat. It's mind-blowing! Thanks to Megan’s motivation, customized work out plans and diverse strength training exercises, I've discovered a whole new level of energy and enthusiasm. From lazy days to active ones, Megan has been the game-changer I needed.

I’ve been working with Megan now for well over a year and she is really one of the best. As someone who loves the gym, I’ve had many trainers in my life, some good, some bad, but Megan really is at the top of my list.

Not only are her programs tailored personally to your needs and physical abilities, she checks in on you throughout the week and tries to teach you that physical fitness is more than just making it to the gym 3x a week. It’s a lifestyle. You’re going to have good weeks and bad weeks and that’s okay. It’s about learning to workout and eat well because you love your body, not because you hate it. No one has ever taken this approach with me and it really does make a difference.

Working out with Megan has been such a wonderful experience. She has made me fall in love with exercise again! Her approach is refreshing from traditional personal training and focused on functional movements you would perform in everyday life. Each workout is tailored to my individual needs, and I leave every session feeling great and stronger than the last!

Megan has been great! I love working with her, she’s super approachable with questions and challenges and extremely flexible with me and my changing schedule. I had worked out with her in person for about 6 months and continue to remotely work with her now and love it! She’s great at following up and keeping me accountable.

I’ve been working with Megan for a few months and cannot recommend her enough. She has calm energy, which isn’t what I’d typically expect in a trainer, but it makes going to the gym so much less stressful. She’s smart, knows what she’s doing, keeps you safe and helps you get results. I recently had a shoulder injury, she immediately adjusted our exercises to accommodate the situation and always made sure to check I was comfortable. She even worked in my PT exercise to keep me on track. She’s flexible with scheduling and has a solid apt/communication system. The best part is the results- I already feel so much stronger! She challenges me more than I’d ever challenge myself (in a good way!). I’d highly recommend working with her.

Go work with Megan! In just one session, she completely transformed the way I train. Before I started working with her, I was doing circuits of calisthenic exercises on my days off from my intense sport of prone paddling. We worked on form and counting reps slowly to help me gain strength, mobility, and balance. I felt she really understood the challenges I explained that my sport and body present me because she really listened. She offered me exercises that have already directly improved my performance on the water, like cutting half a minute off my mile time in less than a week. She did this all while respecting the limited equipment I use and offering ideas that are fun and easy to understand. I look forward to more of her fresh perspective on helping me become the best athlete I can can be.

Megan is the perfect blend of knowledgeable and humble. She has clearly done the work to get the right education. She knows how the body works and she’s not all about the latest fitness craze (although she will incorporate it if that’s what you’re interested in). Megan understands that what is best for one person is not necessarily best for all. That is to say, she brings a thoughtful and personalized approach to training, meeting me where I am and encouraging me to workout smarter and get stronger. Most of all, she encourages me to “do the work”. I have benefited so much from working with her. I have seen real results both physically and mentally, and I’ve had the honor to make a friend in the process. Megan’s style is confident but nice. She isn’t intimidating and yet she clearly knows what she’s talking about. I highly recommend Coastal Strength Collective to anyone looking to start or change up their fitness routine.

Megan is amazing! I came to her after I had felt like I hit a plateau in my workouts and wasn’t seeing any results in my body. She helped me identify strength training workouts that were targeting muscles that I really wanted to see changes in. With the changes she suggested & guidance I began to see immediate results!

Megan is an amazing trainer! She was super kind and responsive and definitely helped me get fit and healthy. I highly recommend her!

Megan is the BEST trainer! She truly cares about her clients and gets them results. She is very detailed when it comes to programming, so you know you are getting a completely personalized workout program tailored to your body, injuries, and goals. She sends weekly accountability check ins to hold you accountable, which is super helpful. She is punctual, friendly, and fun. She has many certifications and knows her stuff! Highly recommend her :)

Megan is great at pushing you to that next level and wants to understand where you are mentally to help you balance those physical and mental steps in the process. Her understanding has made this journey encouraging and keeps me coming back! She has also emphasized the importance of establishing a solid foundation (balance, endurance, etc) before jumping into the next thing which has helped me grow stronger and feel more in control of my body. Staying consistent and regular with training has helped me realize that i’m stronger than i think and can push myself more than i was allowing myself.

The best part of my training experience has been the personalized care and attention. I have always had issues with coordination, and Megan picked up on that and customized a plan to account for that. In the months I’ve been training I’ve made a lot of progress on balance, coordination, flexibility and strength. If you are considering personal training definitely invest, you won’t regret it! After a few sessions you’ll feel yourself experiencing your body in a new and better way.
