April 2013 (2012-2013)

Dear Dorian,

I wanted to take the time to thank you for working with me the past 15 months.  Not only are you a great trainer but you have both inspired and motivated me to continue on my journey of getting healthy and fit.  I have made so many positive changes from logging my food to making a commitment to work out and I have you to thank.  It’s been a pleasure to train with you, thanks again.

To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing to express my support for Ms. Dorian Feleppa, and to emphatically endorse her for any position she chooses to apply for.  She is professional, reliable, and very competent in her area of expertise.

My experience with Ms. Feleppa has been inner role as a personal trainer at Gold’s Gym in Islip, NY.  I have worked with her on a weekly basis for more than a year.  Dorian has supported the goals that are important to me, and she has worked to keep my motivation high.  In addition to wanting to get into better physical condition and shape, I came to  her concerned about strengthening my shoulder, which was injured a few years prior.  Dorian has worked to develop a plan for me which has yielded results.  My physical fitness has increased dramatically thanks to the support and professional advice she has offered.  During the course of this year, I  have gone from working out 1 x per week to visiting the gym 6 xs per week.  I do this because I want to, and because Dorian has inspired me to stretch my limits.  I am a busty mother of two teenage girls who is committed to a demanding work schedule; to have inspired me to make this change is a true credit to Dorian.

It is truly my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Dorian Feleppa.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions or so that I amy elaborate on my experiences with her.

Sincerely,
J. Lavery – Principal

March 2011 (2010-2011)

I am writing this letter to applaud Dorian, one of the trainers at your gym.  I’ve been training with her twice a week for approximately  four months and I’m very happy with the results.

Dorian has helped transform my body, with its numerous injuries requiring months and months of physical therapy, into one that no longer depends on PT.  Despite my reluctance to “test train” the injured parts of my body, she pushes me todo exercises which ultimately have strengthened all of me, and have not reinsured my knee, back or shoulder.  i still ask her, “Are you sure?  Don’t forget about my ……”, whenever she instructs me to try something new, but so far so good.  Slowly, very slowly, I’m learning to trust her, and trust my body again.  I’m doing exercises I haven’t done in years and I feel so much stronger.  now she has the real work cut out for her, getting this old lady looking good!

Dorian not only has the expertise needed to be a good trainer but, more importantly, the ability to sense what works psychologically for her clients and what I feel is a sincere desire to see us succeed.

Thanks, girl!

Dorian is dedicated and hard working.  I started training with her about 3 months ago; i was just getting back from an ACL repair on my knee.  I was very reluctant to work with a trainer after working with physical therapist for the past year.  But the knowledge and know how that she had was incredible.  I never had any pain and my training was always spot on.  I have slimmed down two dress sizes, despite only training once a week for a half hour session, and have increased my strength not only in my knee, but all over which helped me with work.  It was enough to return back to playing volleyball.  She is compassionate and passionate about everything she does and her nutritional knowledge is extensive.  I couldn’t have asked for a better trainer and friend, thank you.

2010 (2010- )

After being sick for a few years and not having the energy to workout I knew that I needed help to get motivated and back into a routine at the gym.  In the past I had trained with men, so I was wary about training with a  woman.  Dorian came highly recommend so I decided to take a chance.  It was the best decision I made.

Dorian has been my guide, not only in getting back into shape physically but also mentally.  Dorian keeps me interested in my workouts by raying the routines and pushing me to my limits.  Even when I doubt myself, Dorian doesn’t and this gives me the confidence to give my all.  My goal was not to lose weight but to tone  my muscles, have more energy, and feel healthy.  I have accomplished these goals over the last year and more due in large part to Dorian’s professionalism and confidence in my ability.  In addition, Dorian has great meal plans to follow and also gives out weekly precepts to enhance your cooking repertoire.  She takes into account any dietary restrictions her clients have, as I am gluten and dairy free.

I have continued my training sessions not only because Dorian keeps me on track and pushes me but because I truly enjoy my time!  Dorian has helped me get back to where I was before I was sick and this is not something I might have been able to stick with on my own.  As a personal trainer, Dorian is extremely professional, competent, and skilled.  I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their overall health and wellbeing.

I wanted to send a note recommending Dorian Feleppa as a personal trainer at Gold’s Gym.  I’ve been working with Dorian since May and every time i finish a session with her I am inspired to live healthier.  Dorian’s passion for what she does is contagious, and I appreciate her patience and motivation she gives me when working out together. Her diet and expertise advice is always helpful, and I am so happy to have her as my trainer.

Thank you,

2010 (2010-2011)

As a person who has struggled with weight my entire life, I was excited when Gold’s Gym came to my neighborhood.  I quickly became a member and found that like most people who go to the gym, I was limited in my abilities.  I was limited by my own physical condition and also by my lack of familiarity with most of the state of the are equipment that they had.  I found I was intimidated to  try these machines out of fear for embarrassment.  After a long time of insufficient results I decided to try out a personal trainer and began working with Dorian Feleppa.

Dorian is a gifted fitness expert.  She is extremely knowledgeable in the area of personal training.  Dorian helped to determine and work toward achievable goals.  We worked together developing plans for aerobic and anaerobic daily routines.  i have also learned the importance of good nutrition in conjunction with these workouts.  Dorian is patient and encouraging even when you are not feeling that way about yourself.  Since working  with her, I have noticed a more sculpted appearance to my body and an increase in energy.

Working with Dorian has helped me achieve changes that I previously had not been able to achieve on my own.  I have no doubt that my continued work with her will only result in more positive changes.  She excels in the area of personal training and fitness and it is my privilege to benefit from that.

2012 (2011-2012)

Dorian Feleppa is a professional, knowledgeable, and caring trainer.  She has great insight into an individuals needs, and strengths.  She works hard to help her clients achieve their personal bests.  Dorian won’t take credit for what I’ve accomplished.  She tells me that I’ve down the work.  However, her inspiration, and ability to keep me focused and motivation with humor, encouragement, or by any means she can, has helped me stop living a very unhealthy life.  Dorian has a knack for making you believe as she does, that you can do SO much more than you think.  I have found her to be right!  She seems to be able to read you, and know when to push, and when to go gently.  When I get frustrated with myself, because I can’t do something, she tells me not to be so hard on myself.  Antoher time she will motivate me to do one more rep., when I’m convinced I can’t, and I’m happily surprised when I succeed.  Her training knowledge encompasses all aspects of training, including making healthy food choices, adding supplements, etc.  Whatever you need to stay healthy and active.  She has even gone the extra mile to find books, or web sites to assist me in reaching my goals.  Dorian also works with clients with some forms of injuries.  As in my case, I had been favoring my injuries for years, which resulted in making me less mobile, and affecting my range of motion.  I have trimmed down, have more energy, and can move 100% more than I could before.  Dorian believes in helping her clients achieve their goals, and more, yet she always remains  a true professional.  Dorians dedication, support, and experience has changed the way I look at live, and myself.  She will do the same for you.

2012 (2011-2013)

A I approach the one year anniversary of my membership at Gold’s Gym Islip, I wanted to share the wonderful experience this year has been.  As a woman in my mid-sixties, who has never been involved in athletic activities or been a “gym rat”, I was very fearful to going to a large gym.  Last January, I was given a 30 day free pass by a friend who had joined.  I never thought i would fit in but decided to give it a tray, as my weight was at its maximum number; I had to try something different.

From the first day every employee I have interacted with – front desk personnel, personal trainers, class instructors, cleaning staff – has been friendly and helpful.  But the very bet thing that has occurred is being paired up with Dorian as my personal trainer!  I have worked out wither her once a week for the past year.   Her enthusiasm, encouragement, friendship, and professionalism inspired me to lose 33 pounds by June and to maintain that weight loss to date.  Not only are my training sessions diverse, challenging, and individualized, but Dorian has motivated me to cook and eat healthy foods for the first time in my life.  She was the spark that ignited me to embark on a journey that created a dramatic change in my body.  My weight is very close to what it was when I was in college, some 45 years ago, and I have never felt stronger.  I truly look forward to our weekly sessions even though it’s work!

I have no hesitation in recommending a Gold’s membership to anyone I know, and I look forward to continued physical active and health in the years ahead.

Sincerely,
Marilyn C.W. – Retired Teacher

2010 (2010-2011)

It is with tremendous gratitude and enthusiasm that I endorse Dorian, of your personal training staff, as a powerful, life-changing force in my life.  I was fortunate enough to be paired with Dorian for my complimentary training sessions in October, 2010.  I was immediately apparent that she was a dedicated trainer who would challenge me, and a patient teacher who would educate me.  Dorian recognized my competitive nature and continually raised the bar; she taught me proper form, and encouraged my efforts.  At seasons’ ends, Dorian would share one of her healthy recipes, reinforcing the concept of TOTAL physical fitness.

My experience was so positive that I purchased a personal training package for myself, and continued to train with Dorian.  By Christmas, I had but one wish on my list, and thanks to Mom & Pop I am back to the gym with Dorian in the new year!

Dorian is an incredible assets to Gold’s Gym, and a personal inspiration to me.  With her guidance an example, I am learning innovate and healthy ways of exercising and eating, and challenging myself to be the very best I can be.

Sincerely,
Linda M. – Speech Therapist

2013 (2010–2013)

I have been training with Dorian Feleppa for over one year.  My husband was the one who suggested I try a personal trainer ager attempts at the gym were not successful.  I have found Dorian to be a dedicated and reliable professional who has helped me gain knowledge of the importance of a healthy diet and exercise.

Since training with Dorian I have lost thirty pounds and three dress sizes.  Dorian’s attention to detail and full body workout have helped me gain a stronger core, better balance and improved muscular definition.  She closely monitors posture and form, and has helped strengthen my lower back.  Her knowledge of physical fitness and healthy eating has helped me look and feel great.

Thanks to Dorian, I turned 40 in the best shape of my life.  She has never missed a session and I always have her complete attention for that full hour.  She always accommodates my schedule when I need to chafe days and times.

Dorian’s professionalism, knowledge, and flexibility set her apart from others in her field.  I would recommend Dorian to anyone looking for a dedicated and experienced trainer.  Her personality and encouragements keep me a loyal client and good friend.

Sincerely,
Nicole L. – Dental Hygienist

2011-2013

I would like to take a moment of your time to praise one of your trainers, Dorian Feleppa.

Although I’ve been working out in a gym setting for years, I have never used a personal trainer before.  I recently relocated and joined Gold’s because of the gym’s reputation as well as proximity to my office.  Dorian was recommended to me.  I’ve been training with her for 4 months.

In the past 4 months, Dorian has been wonderful She’s professional, enthusiastic and a great motivator.  She has helped me with my diet and weight training but, the best thing she has helped me with is my attitude and dedication towards my fitness goals.  I feel so much better than I did before I started training with her.  I look so much better than I did and am proud of the work we’ve done.  I have Dorian to thank for that.  She is truly an asset to Gold’s Gym and I would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone who wants to progress with their fitness goals.

Sincerely,
Joanne L. – M.D.
