Dr Derek’s knowledge of nutrition and what it takes to lose weight is unmatched. He is readily available for questions and encouragement. My trainer Ryan is also very knowledgeable, attentive and motivating. The other trainers are friendly and professional. I’ve had a great, and successful, experience at Alessi Fitness.

The trainers are great. My personal training session is formatted to me and my abilities. The trainers are extremely personable, very professional and knowledgeable. They always give lots of encouragement. The semi private small group classes are great. They are challenging and fun at the same time. Dr Derek's knowledge of nutrition is superb. I've only been here for a month and I see great results already. I highly recommend coming here.

I've been a client here since 2013 and couldn't be happier! The nutritional support, planned workouts and DEXA scans for accountability are key factors for success. I am a two time cancer survivor and my medical team credits my recovery success to healthy choices relative to food and excellent workout regimen. Dr Derek and his team worked with me throughout my journey and I'm forever grateful for the knowledge and expertise to keep my body healthy and up to the challenge!

I am happy to say that I have been a member of the Alessi Fitness family for over 5 years. Like many others, I tried to get into better shape and lose weight using fad diets, and workout at gyms not knowing what I was doing, therefore not getting the results I was hoping to achieve. My initial motivation to seek help from Dr Alessi was after a annual physical with my MD. I was overweight, had high cholesterol levels and just tired of always feeling tired and having pain in my knees and back. I am an RN and thought I was eating a healthy and nutritious diet, was I wrong. Not only have I trimmed down my body fat amount, but was able to participate in a work out 1 hour 3x week which improved my mobility, energy and sleep patterns, Most importantly I has able to lower my lab values and did not need any medications. The staff is friendly, encouraging and very well skilled and educated in the field of fitness. Even providing modified exercises as my ability levels were changing. I would highly recommend talking and joining the Alessi family. They certainly have helped me improve my health and well being both physically and emotionally. You are not just a member as everyone else, I felt that my individual mobility and nutritional needs were the priority. The accountability for success with monthly scans, is a motivation for me, and helps me get back on track, even when I fall into my poor eating habits. Joining the Alessi Fitness family has been to best decision that I have provided for me and my wellness. Please come join the fun. It one of the best gifts that you can give to yourself!

My Best decision was to join Alessi fit over 4 years ago. I feel great! I have learned so much from Dr. Derek and his staff how nutrition and exercise go hand in hand. I am confident in knowing that I am preparing healthy meals for my family. And when it comes to exercise Dr. Derek and his trainers are the best in helping you achieve your goals. They are attentive to your specific needs and challenges. I am stronger and in better shape than I was 10 years ago. Thank you Alessi fit for helping me reach my goals. Still Going strong!! And I must add that the COVID 19 sanitizing protocol is superior 😷

I had a gym membership in the past but I found myself going less often and I never really had both the diet and exercise routine working together. That all changed 8 years ago when I became a client of Dr. Derek’s.I now have set appointments which force me to make the commitment to go every week. I’ve found working with a personal trainer makes better use of my time in the gym. I no longer have to search for equipment or wait for a machine that’s in use. At Alessi Fitness my trainer sets up the equipment and demonstrates the exercise to be done. They correct my form as necessary and push/encourage me along the way.In my first year I dropped 30 pounds of fat and I’ve maintained it by making a life style change to my diet. I now know what food to eat and what to limit. Every week I get a cheat day to eat whatever I want and my monthly Dexa scans keep me honest when I’m cheating more than that.The gym and locker room have always been very clean but it’s exceptionally clean these days. The trainers clean the equipment shortly after you’re done with it and fogging of the equipment and gym happen at the end of the day.

Alessi Fitness is far more than just a gym. I enjoy the personal attention not only to my strength and cardio care but also my nutritional and mindset care. Derek and team are always there to push you and support you through the victories and the challenges that present themselves. Follow the program and you will see results quickly.

I first trained with Derek in 1999 when personal training in this area was in its infancy. Since that time, Derek has always emphasized the importance of good nutrition, the science of body fat and proper technique of exercise. I have never met anyone so motivated and so eager to help others improve their health and change their lives. I could go on and on about all that I have learned from him through the years. But instead, find out for yourself! I highly recommend Dr. Derek and Alessi Fitness for anyone interested in getting fit! You’re worth it!

I recently started using the services of Dr. Derek Alessi at the urging of my wife who has attended his seminars. I found the all inclusive approach of his team as mind, body and spirit. Each detail of this all encompassing program is communicated in an easy to understand format for all types of student’s; it varies from kinesiology, visual, academics, science and an understanding what is important to you personally at this time into your life. My medical issues involve my use of orthopedic and neurosurgeons. He and his staff designed a program to adapt and allow for my present limitations. Dr. Derek communicates daily through emails and helpful solutions to everyday dietary problems. In addition, he and his staff use an app to detail all training and logging of nutrients to keep them updated on my progress which allows a continuing tweaking of my personalized program . As detailed in my writing it is evident that everyone involved is very client oriented, professional and excellent communicators.
