BERKSHIRE FITNESS COMPANY

Fantastic experience: M joints, my muscles, my entire body and therefore my mind rejoice in classes with Robin Dufour. When COVID19 struck my Personal Trainer closed her studio in order not to jeopardize her clients' health. I can do it on my own, I thought, and took longer and more frequent walks -- until my body complained with aches and pains. Robin Dufour came to the rescue. Her biweekly exercise classes on Zoom are upbeat, fun, and easy to do in a home that's not set up as a gym. All you need is a pair of weights and a wall to lean on. For the rest, just have your phone, tablet or laptop nearby and a firm ground to stand on. I am looking forward to each session. Her philosophy: everything is connected to everything, makes the exercises feel organic and in synch with what my body is craving for. Yet, my vigorous walking up to three times a day took a toll on my ankle - an old injury that tends to flare up. I first reduced my walking to once a day, then couldn't walk at all any more and was instead limping through the house. In the past, I had tried multiple physical therapies and steroid injections to no avail. Another surgery seemed unavoidable. "Try Robin, she's also a Physical Therapist, " someone in the group advised. I scheduled sessions with her and the miracle happened: Within two weeks I could resume short walks on an even surface and now, after only two months my ankle is more mobile than ever before. In short: I'll stick to my classes with Robin even when one fine day the virus will be history.

Fantastic experience: I had a total hip replacement last Spring and Robin helped immensely in my recovery even though we live states apart. Taking advantage of FaceTime virtual coaching sessions, the CoachNow app and countless training videos, Robin worked with me to strengthen my muscles and eradicate my limp that had been learned over time. And when I have other needs pop up through my recovery, Robin continues to assist me and keep my body moving through movement classes via Zoom. Couldn't be happier with Robin's level of knowledge, professionalism and support all the way from the Berkshires. Thank you, Robin.

Fantastic experience: Thank goodness for Robin and Berkshire Fitness! During this COVID-19 lockdown, their ZOOM workouts have been a simple, supportive and challenging way to get fit, increase my flexibility and feel better! The fact that I live in Maine and can connect to such a thoughtful and informed instructor as Robin (who is all the way in Massachusetts) is so helpful. I’m not someone who feels comfortable in most gyms so this format really works for me! I also have a bad back so Robin’s background in physical therapy allows her to make sure I’m moving in “safe” ways and not putting myself at risk. Thank you, Robin!

Fantastic experience: I have been a client at Be Fit Co. for almost 4 years. Simply put, my experience working with Robin has been life-changing. Her knowledge, experience and passion for her work allows her to assess my needs and to come up with a program to help me solve problems and achieve my goals. I am continually amazed by her ability to listen, observe and find creative solutions, whether I’m working with her at the studio or remotely through virtual sessions. I’ve also had the chance to observe the other members of the team in action and they are just as supportive and dedicated. I highly recommend Be Fit.

Fantastic experience: The work I've done with Robin has transformed how I feel about myself, and the positive attitude and energy at Be Fit are simply amazing! Keeping active over the age of 50 can be a challenge, and Robin figures out just what I need to stay strong, fit, and pain-free, so that I can keep on doing the things I enjoy the most and take on new challenges.
