I was lucky enough to be referred to Clarice when I took interest in competing in the fitness realm with no experience at all. She definitely made the experience worthwhile. During the two and a half years that she coached me I saw tremendous Improvement in my physique. Each goal we set before every show we accomplished. She really exposed me to my abilities and what I love most about her is that she cares about results and she always personalized her programs to meet my goals. She was also my Nutrition coach which was a positive. Her dance background was also a great asset as a posing coach. I had the best package. After competing in 3 shows i am able to maintain a healthy lifestyle because she not only coached but taught me skills that have trickeled into other areas of my life. I definitely recommend Clarice as a trainer.

I’ve been working with Clarice Yau for the past 3 months. In that time I have, on average, doubled my weights and/or increased reps by 50% - generally both. I have done weights off and on for about 40 years and am now doing heavier weights than at any time in the past 30 years or so. In my first session, we discussed goals and limitations. In my second session we baselined my flexibility and strength. At the 3rd session, Clarice had 2 workouts for me. I do each twice a week, when possible. The next 6-8 weeks focused on unlearning what I thought I knew and learning proper technique for each exercise. Learning proper techniques has allowed me to significantly increase my weights (and/or reps) over the past 6 or so weeks to levels I have not been able to achieve for decades. In addition, my previous efforts at increasing weight have always stopped with joint pain. Under Clarice’s tutelage, I have not had joint pain despite the big increases in the weights. As a coach in my own sport, I recognize a good coach when I see one. Clarice has pushed me to my limits, which has significantly increased my limits. But she has also ensured I am not doing exercises I am not ready for. As such, I have made continuous progress, which helps keep me motivated. As I exercise, Clarice watches from different angles and checks if I am working the specific muscles the exercise targets. When not, we have stopped, and worked through how to achieve the desired outcome. For example, retaining form for lat pull-downs has been challenging due to less flexibility. Rather than focusing on the distance of the pull-down (i.e. to the chest), she had me focus on doing it to the maximum point at which my form was good. Clarice worked with me on a few exercises to overcome limitations. I believe her background as a competitive body-builder and a competitive dancer has given her the direct experience and body knowledge to be a superior personal trainer. I have had excellent value for money spent. I highly recommend Clarice Yau as a personal trainer.

Clarice was supportive and inspiring, that I found myself really looking forward to seeing her. We started doing a lot of cardio, and even though it was tough, she would push me and it made me push myself. I started to notice really positive changes in myself around Christmas, when my pants were getting loose and when I saw muscle building. At the same time I met with family and they were very encouraging and supportive of my changes! " ​ "In May, we did another weight in and I was shocked and excited about what I had achieved. I was going to work and getting less hours of sleep, but I didn’t feel tired anymore. I felt happy and I got to wear a bikini in Nicaragua and get pictures taken without feeling ashamed. I’m learning to take one day at a time and setting new goals for myself each I go. I’m now shooting for a one arm push-up like my idol, Clarice!

I started my Impact Training with one fitness goal in mind: push-ups. Having trained with Clarice now for the past month, I've broadened my understanding of fitness to full-body strength and endurance. Clarice ignores all the limitations you set for yourself so that you will never leave a session feeling like you weren't pushed to the max!

All throughout my childhood, I had hoped to participate in the Olympics. That dream led me to pursue high-level athletics all throughout my teens and early-twenties. Later in life, after I'd left the world of competitive athletics behind, my lifestyle choices finally caught up with me. When I started training with Clarice, I knew I had taken my first step to shake up my poor habits and realign my path towards holistic and long-term health. Having worked with top trainers and fitness coaches in the past, my experience with Clarice ranks right up there! Her knowledge and professionalism reassured me that I'd chosen the right trainer, while her personality and positivity inspired me to test my limits (even though there were days I'd felt super out-of-shape!).
