Who I am:
I am an ACE-American Council on Exercise-certified trainer. I have a sincere passion for helping others, which began with my degree in social work and then transformed into my career in personal training.

All my certifications are interconnected and varied across the board to find the perfect medium to train my clients. I train all throughout Pinellas County. I strongly believe in training my clients to the best of their abilities and educating them to be strong, fit and confident.

A few words from my clients
Jim
I find Hortencia to be a top notch health and exercise professional. ​She makes sure that you're executing the prescribed​ exercises correctly to maximize their benefit and at the same time ​
​stresses exercise safely.
​Her attentive nature maximized your time spent
​​with her thus ​producing results​ you will not​​
​find in a​​ gym by yourself.
Rita
Hortencia has given me the knowledge I need to have a beneficial workout when on my own exercising at home or at the gym. She is always available by phone or in person to answer any questions or address concerns I may have regarding my exercise routine.
​​​​​​She is a true professional with a complete knowledge of the anatomy and how proper diet and exercise can improve your lifestyle.
Emily
She consistently makes challenging but realistic workouts for me and tailors them to fit my needs. She even went so far as to research the best exercises for my sports and even for my specific position. Then she singled out the most important muscles that I use and fabricated a workout that would ultimately make me a better athlete. In addition to helping me with my fitness. Hortencia also gives me a great deal of advice on what food I should be eating for my body to look and feel its best.
