Laura Ciliotta
PERSONAL TRAINER
I am a trainer specializing in the needs of people from all walks of life. I began my business part-time in the evenings and quickly realized that this was where I belonged!
What defines me as a trainer?
My goal every day is to bring value into the lives of our clients by helping them achieve their health goals. I truly enjoy giving back and seeing people happy. When a family expresses how happy their child is and how they look forward to their workout, THAT’S what defines me.
I truly enjoy working with all clients, either in their home, their yard, or at a local park. Each person has their own specific workout, tailored to their likes and abilities. Seeing progress and confidence levels grow is what makes my day…every day! There is no better feeling of reward. This is my community – this is my passion.
All our trainers are fully certified, insured, and vaccinated! We clean our equipment after each use and are PPE prepared.

Celesta Blanch
PERSONAL TRAINER
My goal is to have the most positive impact that I can on the lives of the people that I work with, helping them become the healthiest, happiest version of themselves.
This goes way beyond helping people look the best they ever have, this covers performance, mindset, motivation, and lifestyle. I offer one on one training and small classes. I specialize in beginner classes. I work within their home or at my gym. Each client has their own specific workout tailored to their needs and abilities.
I believe effective strength training for any person, any age, is the key to long-term health and wellness.
I am focused on helping clients realize their full-strength capabilities and give them the confidence to take on more. I believe functional movement is essential for every person regardless of size, age, or fitness history.

Rudy Townsend
PERSONAL TRAINER
Looking at Rudy Townsend today, you'd never imagine he used to weigh over 300 lbs. In 2015, Rudy had just endured his second knee surgery and was the heaviest he had been in his life. He made a decision that would ultimately change his entire life; dedicating himself to regular exercise. Since, Rudy has made it his life mission to, not only keep himself in-shape, but also show others that their dreams can become a reality. Rudy teaches his trainees to set personal goals, encourages them to set regular gym routines, and, most importantly, with his big personality, motivates you to keep coming back to stay healthy. He knows your challenges first-hand and will get you to the finish line.

Nick Palumbo
PERSONAL TRAINER
Hi my name is Nick. I am a Certified ISSA Personal Trainer.
I started my workout journey for my grandmother 4 years ago, promising her I would lose 50 pounds. So far, on my journey, have lost 85 pounds! Additionally, I suffer from a traumatic brain injury. Working out has helped my symptoms tremendously and I feel amazing.
Due to me having disability, people have told me that I can’t do certain things. I knew i could rise above that and be successful. I know what it takes to achieve goals and stay on track, and I believe this is what makes me a great trainer for our special needs population. I am positive, driven and I believe that we ALL can achieve anything we set out to do!
I cannot be happier with my career training others with disabilities. I feel I have a lot to offer and am grateful to have this opportunity!

Not only do I think fitness is an essential component of physical health, I believe that it also contributes to positive social and emotional health! Similar to my teaching philosophy, I believe in the whole child approach. My goal is and has always been to help others! I also understand that each individual has unique needs and I will ensure that I fit the training to these needs, and ensure that they have fun in doing so! I also am a strong believer in building rapport and developing personal relationships with each of my clients!
Ultimately, my goal is to have the most positive impact possible on all of the individuals that I cross paths with!

Laura Russo
PERSONAL TRAINER
Hello! My name is Laura Russo and I am so excited to work with Team Extreme!
Attacking my own autoimmune issues led me to the path of becoming a certified personal
trainer and certified functional nutrition coach. I have always had a passion for health and
fitness, but as an elementary school teacher for 25 years, I didn’t have the time to pursue that passion. Now that I have recently retired from the classroom, I have dedicated my time to learning as much as I can about health and fitness, and to helping others see how exercise can help them in all aspects of life.
My goal as a fitness professional is to tailor my clients’ workouts so they will not only look
forward to their exercise but discover their personal best. Helping people understand their
mindset, motivation, and what they define as success are all important parts of a training
session. I will address the specific needs and goals of each individual whether we are at the
gym, a local park, or your home. I am looking forward to being your coach. :-)
