Hello! I’m a fitness trainer for seniors with over 18 years of experience and more than 20,000 hours of hands-on coaching. My career began in Los Angeles, where I earned multiple top-tier certifications, including SuperSlow—a highly effective method particularly well-suited for senior fitness. I now also offer virtual sessions to clients no matter where they are. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of clients, from celebrities and athletes to founders, busy families, and individuals of all ages and fitness levels. While my practice spans diverse groups, I discovered a deep connection and strong results when working with older adults. Senior fitness has since become a major focus of my work, and it’s something I’m incredibly passionate about. My approach as a personal trainer for seniors in Bend, OR is gentle yet effective. Every session is tailored to support strength, balance, and confidence at any age. I truly believe it’s never too late to feel strong, move well, and enjoy the process with the right support. Since 2007, I’ve been a respected voice in the health and fitness space, collaborating with top wellness brands, contributing as a US News Health & Fitness Writer, and also helping clients with their nutrition as a Certified Nutritionist. Outside the training, you’ll most likely find me out in nature, adventuring with my two spectacular kids. Show less

"I hadn’t sleep well last night so wasn’t sure what kind of workout I could do. Monica modified the workout she planned and I ended up with a great workout! Very happy with how she can go with the flow!"

"30 minutes seems so quick but I felt like I had a good workout!"
Cynthia C.
"We did a 30 minutes workout preparing for when I travel and cant do an hour. Very simple workout but very complete!"
Cynthia C.
"It was a good workout doing some new things. It is good to do some things that my body isn’t use to. Monica consistently asks if anything hurts or is too hard so we can both be on the same page as I grow in my new healthy life!!"

"Thank you, Monica! Your post session updates are so helpful. I appreciate you have integrated music into the sessions and have included another resident. I believe that it not only gives Mom a boost but helps with the overall mood of the care home. Thank you for being flexible, creative and accommodating! You are an absolute star!!"
