Marlo has been passionately dedicated and involved in health and fitness since 1994. She started out with the International Sports and Science Association (ISSA) as a personal trainer where she studied positive psychology of fitness which included flexibility, range of motion and mobility. In 2005, she began focusing her attention and skills toward working with special populations, specifically older adults and seniors with various challenges.
Marlo is adept at working with individuals with arthritis, diabetes and those who have been paralyzed and/or bedridden. She teaches body mechanics, postural techniques, proper use of joints and muscles to turn, lift, push pull and bend correctly.
She has also taught in assisted living communities in Los Angeles and Orange Counties, bringing her expertise to the residents. When the pandemic hit, all facilities were closed, and seniors were left in their rooms alone. She began connecting to brighten their spirits through Zoom or FaceTime, whether for five minutes or 60. She began working their minds, bodies and spirits.
Marlo earned her Personal Trainer Certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). Her stellar reputation is demonstrated by referrals from other trainers and corporations such as Boeing Aircraft Industries and gyms that are funded and sponsored by SilverSneakers.
Marlo is dedicated to other human beings, helping them build confidence and independence and enjoying the best years of their lives.
It All Begins With a Consultation with Lori
Kind Words from our Clients
Rebecca
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.

Eileen ED PRO
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.

Lori,
You're amazing...you can pivot in a moment's flash... if you could bottle that productivity and sell it to seniors you could buy California, despite the fact that you already help many people and make their lives better!! Stay YOU!!!
Love, Jersey John
