Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it. Here's what some of our clients have to say about their experience at The Live Well Company:

"I actually look forward to my workouts with Darryl and Anne Marie because they make it fun to train and they are such delightful people that I enjoy the time I spend with them. Thanks to Darryl and Anne Marie (I work happily with either one), I am in the best physical shape of my life; strength, tone, and flexibility. Even my 'skinny' jeans fit for the first time in years. I never liked gyms and I couldn't get an effective enough workout on my own. The LiveWell Company is a great solution for my fitness routine." - Rosemary, age 55

"Darryl is my third professional trainer.and by far my best. He has appropriately developed my program so that I am continually challenged but also am not in danger of hurting myself. I feel healthier than when I started and the workouts show physically. Darryl has worked my entire body, especially my core. His program has helped with the back problems I have had for many years. I am totally happy with my progress and my continued improvement to both my health and looks." - Howard Socol, Former CEO, Barneys NY
