“Madison is an extra extraordinary asset at our gym and has been helping me get stronger, have better form, and overall better physical health than I ever have been. Having her as a personal trainer was the best investment that I have made in my physical health. Best of all, she has worked with my entire family from teenage daughter to young old mom. I really enjoyed our couples training sessions, where my partner and I could challenge one another for a fun, healthy date. Thank you for all the individualized effort and dedication you put into your clients, Madison!”

“I’ve worked with many different trainers (and training styles) over the past 30 or so years. Without question Madison was the most helpful and focused. She helped me with form on many different foundational exercises which, in turn, allowed me to work out safely and make great progress. She was always punctual, prepared and extremely professional. My only complaint is that she moved away.”
– Rebecca T., previous client at Functional Fitness VA
“Madison is fantastic! She’s structured and detail-oriented when it comes to tracking workouts and progress. She keeps things fresh by mixing up routines, which makes workouts both fun and engaging. Madison is also incredibly flexible and responsive—she’s great at adjusting workouts in real time to accommodate injuries or discomfort. There have been many times I’ve walked in saying, “this part of my body doesn’t feel right today,” and she immediately adapted the plan without missing a beat. She even worked with my 75-year-old father while he had a broken foot, keeping him active and moving safely.”

“Madison has been a personal trainer for our family for years. She is fun, dedicated, knowledgeable, disciplined and focused. Our teenage kids love training with Madison, and she’s helped them improve a lot in their other sports.” – Vik K., previous client at Functional Fitness VA
“I chose to do personal training sessions with Madison starting in 2022 because of her background as a college runner and personal experiences with running injuries. As a marathoner, my primary goal was building stability and strength to prevent injuries. Over the course of three years, Madison worked with me to make me stronger and keep me injury-free. With her support, I qualified and ran the Boston marathon, a lifelong dream of mine. What I most appreciate about Madison’s style is she adapts workouts to your personal goals and how you are feeling on a given day. While the long-term goal may be greater stability, strength, or power, she will be the first to remind you that the trajectory is not always linear and each workout should be adapted to what you need on that day.”
– Jen M., previous client at Functional Fitness VA
“Madison is a focused, disciplined trainer who has been able to take this 80+ year old man through many health challenges and into elite level physical fitness for my age. She is also kind, if no-nonsense. Her university athletic background serves her and her clients well.”
– Steve B., previous client at Functional Fitness VA
“I was about 55 when I started working with Madison. I had been active and healthy my whole life (running, biking, skiing) but had never considered myself strong and had never really worked out in the gym. I had a ski trip coming up in a few months and wanted to get in better shape, so I started training with Madison one-on-one. Now, after more than three years of training with Madison, I can confidently say that I’ve never felt stronger and am happy to report that I am capable of doing everything in life that I want, from outdoor activities to tasks at home. I’ll be 59 this year, can deadlift 275 lbs., do 6 or 7 pullups, and look forward to my next set of Turkish getups! Train with Madison. She’s simply the best!”
