Maureen Amirault is a nationally certified ACE Personal Trainer with a degree in Exercise Science/Athletic Training. She has more than 20 years of experience designing individual programs for women's health, injury rehab and weight loss! She is certified as a Group Exercise and Personal Trainer course instructor, and also holds certifications as a "Brains and Balance" specialist, Precision Nutrition Coach, and TRX Group instructor.
Our small groups are just that- small! We limit our groups to generally 6 or less so that we keep the "personal" in Personal Training! You will have tons of fun getting fit with your friends while still knowing that you are doing things correctly! Our trainers deliver a fun, challenging session that is designed with your needs and goals in mind!
On your initial appointment, we will take a detailed history, answer any questions that you may have, and guide you through a typical workout at Essential Fitness. Next, we will sit down and discuss our recommendations based on your goals and needs. Training packages are based on your goals and needs.
I learned that it doesn't take a lot of time each day but it does take intensity to get results. I gained an appreciation for what it takes to make the changes that we all want to make. What I learned first and foremost is there are no actual limitations in what I'm capable of, that they are only in my mind.
We'll have a goal-setting session followed by a fitness assessment with an Essential Fitness personal trainer so you can experience our training style. After your workout, we'll reflect on your experience, make fitness suggestions and see if Essential Fitness is the right gym for you. Lift with confidence, change your eating habits, and work with a personal trainer to finally reach your fitness and nutrition goals!.

I am so happy to have found this amazing small gym for women only. The classes are so fun and change every month so it stays fresh. Maureen, Cynthia and all the trainers are all wonderful - knowledgeable and passionate about what they do - they encourage you to be better in all aspects of your life. They truly care about each and every woman who walks in the door. Give them a call and try a free work out...if there is a way to fit this into your life then do it - it is worth the price I promise!

I am a healthcare worker and after two years dealing with COVID, I was looking for a place to get my sanity back. Maureen and Cynthia gave me much more than that. I joined in September, I have lost weights, feel strong, less stressed and got some level of normal life back again.
Classes are small, you get personal attention each time, place is spotless and clean.
I highly recommend Essential Fitness.
Love it. Thank you Cynthia and Maureen

I started Essential Fitness about three months ago and I love it. I've been an athlete my whole life but after kids it's easy to lose your way at the gym. Maureen and Cynthia do a great job keeping your motivated, accountable and on track. It's a very positive supportive environment and I haven't felt this good in a long time. Thank you Essential Fitness!!

The personal trainers are all AWESOME!! If you don't like exercising and hate dieting and getting no where then this is the gym you need to join. They can help you achieve any goal you set for yourself. Come try it out.

I joined Essential Fitness 5 months ago. I have lost 15 pounds and toned my body. The best thing is how much better I feel. My endurance is improved and I have much more energy. The trainers are energetic and knowledgeable in fitness, muscle building and nutrition. The women who train here are encouraging as well. This is definitely a program I can follow long term.

Such a great place for a woman to learn about her ever changing body. Maureen and Cynthia are amazing coaches, teachers, people 😀 I’m 45 days into my journey, figuring out how to maintain my body at the age of 45 when everything about me seems to have changed over the last 3 years. Essential Fitness is teaching me how to do this in a comfortable and supportive environment with a bunch of similarly focused women. It’s hard work at the perfect place!
