I accidentally stumbled into one of Natalie’s workout classes two years ago, and not to be dramatic, but it changed my life. I played division one lacrosse for four years in college, and Natalie’s classes trump those workouts every day of the week. Each time I walk through her door, she pushes me to work harder than I think I’m capable of, and for the first time in my life I care about getting stronger, not skinnier. Natalie is talented enough to be training celebrities out in Hollywood; honestly I have no idea what she’s doing in West Hartford, but I’m so glad she’s here. Working out with her for the past two years has made me tougher, both physically and mentally, and I feel like I am also a better medical student because of her. After working out with Natalie, I feel invincible—not just in the gym, but in all aspects of my life. -Abigail Doelger
