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.
