Growing up in Southern California, Allyson participated in team sports including softball, volleyball, and was very involved with theatre and dancing. After graduating from Whittier College with a BA in Theatre Arts, Allyson moved to NYC to attend graduate school and pursue her career in acting.
Eventually, Allyson’s love of athletics, dance and personal development led her to working in health and fitness while looking for acting gigs. After working in big box gyms for many years, Allyson opened her own personal training business in NYC while continuing to teach group fitness classes. She did this until 2018 when she made the move back to Southern California.
Allyson’s training credentials include: Certified Personal Trainer since 1996, Fitness Instructor since 1995 and Health Coach since 2011. She has worked extensively with the senior population, including being the fitness coordinator at a senior living facility.
Allyson is a mom of two and her fitness motto is, “I love helping people feel better in their bodies, about themselves, and in their outlook on life. It is never too late to improve your health and your state of mind!”
It All Begins With a Consultation with Lori
Kind Words from our Clients
Sam Strain – Trainer
Customer care is of the utmost concern to her. She is very knowledgeable about personal training and the workings of the functional human body from a bio-mechanical point of view. She is compassionate about all her clients as they all get her personal touch.
I would feel most comfortable recommending her to anyone that is in need of her services.
Respectfully,
Samuel Strain II NASM/CES

After my mom’s strokes, we knew we needed to help her become active and improve her balance. She didn’t have a good habit of any exercise and none of the local senior classes were appropriate for her.
I’m so glad we called Lori Michiel Fitness. Lori came to the house, met with my mom, listened to her needs, took a careful medical history and matched her with a trainer. He is a wonderful trainer who comes to the house three times a week to help support mom’s recovery. The trainer really understands senior fitness. He gives the whole family peace of mind that we are doing what we can to prevent another fall and keep mom active. Lori checks in with us regularly to make sure the therapy continues to be appropriate for mom. We’re very grateful to her.

I just wanted to send the biggest thank you for joining us at The Variel. You put on such an excellent class and I know our contact at The Variel was really impressed.
I can't say enough good things about your class. You were knowledgeable, engaging, and FUN! I've worked with a number of fitness instructors over the years -- some are good and some are standout, and you quickly revealed yourself to be standout.
I look forward to working with you again in the future, and thanks for donating your time to our special community this past Saturday.
Thanks,
Eileen, Executive Director Parkinson's Resource Organization

Lori's principles of dynamic stretching revolutionized the way I approach stretching. I've seen a great increase in flexibility and have even built additional strength using her techniques.
