Client Reviews
"I highly recommend Ian, who is a fantastic trainer. He uses his extensive physical therapy experience to take a holistic approach and build a tailored, targeted program based on individual goals. After my back injury, he was able to rebuild my confidence by teaching me tips on how to minimize pressure points and strengthen my back. He also has an exceptional personal style that makes the hour fly by and enjoyable. I trust him completely and can't thank him enough for all his help." Janice, Current TGI Client

"After graduating from physical therapy, I needed help getting back to my active lifestyle. Ian and The Glute Institute provided me with a personalized fitness program designed to improve my overall fitness and strengthen my weak areas without causing additional injury. Ian's professional experience and his focus on form equipped me to perform challenging workouts and build strength slowly and safely. With The Glute Institute's assistance and expertise I have become stronger and fitter than ever." Cindy, Current TGI Client
"I first started working out with Cailin at the Glute Institute after a pretty bad disc herniation in my lower back. When my time with physical therapy was over, I was looking for a way to get back to working out, but in a safe and controlled environment. The Glute Institute was recommended to me and I could not be happier with the progress that I have made during my time with Cailin. With her background in Physical Therapy, she is extremely knowledgeable as to which exercises would best help me to improve at a steady rate. Each session begins with a check in about any issues I may be experiencing, especially with my joints. We then go through a warm-up and then a series of exercises which are challenging to just the right level each session. Cailin is very adept at seeing any issues with my form during movements and helping me to address them. I came to realize that the way I was doing movements like squats, lunges, lifts and even picking up something off the floor in the past likely contributed to the back injury that I suffered. Cailin has helped me to develop better habits both in my workouts and just in everyday activities. I highly recommend The Glute Institute, especially if you are looking to learn about doing movements the correct, safe way." Theresa Y.
"Cailin is an excellent trainer. She's extremely knowledgable and adapts each session to meet my needs. I always feel challenged and have progressed so much since I've started working with her." Jessica B.
" When I first started with the Glute institute, I wanted to regain strength I had lost from a previous stroke and also some more recently post surgery complications. Cailin has guided me through the use of skilled exercises to help me regain my mobility and lessen my pain. She not only very educated but is always patient and kind plus flexible with my schedule. I highly recommend The Glute Institute and give it 5 stars." Jeannie
