Shara Vigeant Personal Training Studio

I was deeply disappointed with my experience here. Although the sessions started off well and I was pleased with the workouts, I wasn't impressed with the management of the studio. Shara has a "no victim mentality" philosophy which teeters on the edge of bullying. Despite their claims, I found that the studio focuses more on the exercises instead of the client "holistically" - including background, past physical and emotional issues, and current lifestyle.

I'm someone who tries extremely hard and doesn't give up easily and unfortunately this wasn't recognized. Which is why, when I alluded to an eating disorder and physical ailments (caused from overtraining) in my contact with Shara, I was disappointed to be met with surface responses based on incorrect assumptions. In most emails, Shara CAPITALIZES her words - as if she is yelling, which I find condescending. She even accused me of not sticking to workouts, which sent me into "defensive" mode instead of wanting to open up.

If you`re looking for a studio that focuses more on personalized body mechanics and cares about the individual client instead of earning the bucks, I would recommend looking into other alternatives.
