Testimonials
"I have been with Narina for 10 months and with her encouragement and wonderful knowledge base I have been able to loose weight, and INCHES!!! 27 INCHES that is!!! I'm in the best health, that I've ever been in. Narina listens to my concerns about my sore knees and develops programs with them in mind. She also gets creative to keep my interest in the new ones she adds. I do have my own gym set up at home and Narina has tailored my weight program to my equipment. She explains every thing thoroughly so that I leave the gym completely sure of the next step in my training. Narina is always there to answer any questions and to help with technique. I plan to visit her gym at least every two months for the much needed warm encouragement and expertise. Thank you Narina."

"I started working out with Narina Prokosch at Victoria Wellness Professionals, in March 2002 after being advised by a physiotherapist that recovery from a rotator cuff injury would take between eight to twelve months. With Narina's help and guidance, we nursed my shoulder back within two months. After six weeks of an intensive 'Boot Camp' program, I achieved my weight goals which was to lose 18 lbs and my body fat was reduced to 21%. With Narina's guidance I was able to reach my goals swiftly and without injury. Her training as a nurse coupled with her years of experience in fitness offers a level of safety that is not available at the average gym. By scheduling training sessions, she helps to maintain the continuity of your work out which reinforces your commitment to improving your level of physical health. It has been such a positive experience for me that I have recommended several people to Narina and will continue to do so in the future."

"I first became interested in the idea of weight training through a plastic surgeon who had recommended Narina Prokosch's program at her Wellness Studio as an alternative to reconstructive surgery. I met with Narina for a pre-assessment. Narina was extremely thorough in her testing and gave an hour and half of her time talking to me about my current condition, the goals and what I could expect from her professional assistance. During my time with Narina, I received excellent training on how to use weights as well as a wealth of knowledge about the physiological variables of the body when undergoing weight training. Knowing that I would need to continue my training in a home environment, Narina then developed a program for me that could be followed at home. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Victoria Wellness studio and have recommended Narina to my family and friends. I feel stronger, healthier and more energized and am very grateful to Narina for setting me on a path to wellness that will have far-reaching effects on my overall mental and physical health."

Narina - "Just a quick note to tell you how pleased I am with the program you set up for me. I am very impressed by your knowledge base and professional presentation of information. Both the visual and the written information has been extremely easy to understand. I've been singing your praises for the last week! Thanks again."

After eight months of training at Victoria Wellness I am stronger than I have ever been. Not only have I lost inches and gained muscle but my posture has improved as well. I have never stuck to an exercise routine before and can't say enough about the difference it has made to have a program personalized for my needs (the constant encouragement hasn't hurt either!). I have nothing but good things to say about Narina and her excellent team at Victoria Wellness."
