“Lili is committed to making you the best version of yourself as a dancer and athlete.” -Rachel Rigole
Jeanne-Marie Branche
“Working with Lili has been so life-changing!! Before I was scared of the gym and I didn't really know what to do or where to start! After starting her program she has been such a rock and mentor in my life guiding me through training and the ins and outs of the gym and just being there to support my ups and downs!!
I love the Performing Athlete™ because it really got me thinking about many aspects of training and daily life that contributes to how I perform in the gym or in dance class or on stage. It really helped me mentally and physically!
I highly highly recommend working with Lili! She is a phenomenal coach and hype woman when you need it!! For my first big investment for myself- I do not regret it one bit!!"
Kristen Dasto
"It's only been 8 weeks and I honestly cannot recommend working 1-1 with Lili enough! Her attention to detail in helping you succeed and be the absolute best you YOU can be is so refreshing, especially in a field that often tears you down. Lili's passion for what she does SHINES, along with her encouragement and genuine spirit. She is always there and ready to answer any and all questions. She is super personable, and truly cares about you and your goals. I have seen so much improvement not only in myself as a whole, but also in my nutrition and how I view food, my jumps, kicks, stamina, muscle engagement, former injuries that I finally feel are healing and getting stronger... I could on. And again, it's only been 8 weeks. I cannot wait to see where I am thanks to Lili's guidance at the end of this full program!"
Lauren Wilmore
“Working with Lili has been exactly the push I needed on my dance journey. Lili’s program helped me overcome my fear of the gym and made me feel super confident and energized every time I went. Her support and accountability helped me create the routine and habits that I was struggling so hard to maintain. The modules helped me work through internalized attitudes toward food and cross training that I hadn’t even realized I had, and helped me realize the importance of simple, game-changing things like getting enough sleep and packing snacks on busy days. I feel so much stronger in my dancing now, I have a plan, I have confidence, and I’m genuinely excited to see my continued progress! I can’t recommend this program highly enough, and not only for ballet dancers—I’m a musical theatre dancer, and she knew exactly the path I needed to take to reach my goals. Thank you Lili!!"

Sarah Holguin
"The past 12 weeks have been life changing. I was struggling to eat properly and find workouts that helped me with my form and endurance. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done for me ! I feel like a weapon in the gym and I am so grateful for all the knowledge and information you have given me!"
Hannah Angell
"I'm noticing huge improvements in dance! My modern, contemporary, and improv all feel a lot more solid and I can do more things since I have more strength. My jumps in ballet feel almost effortless, it’s crazy in such a good way. I'm also able to focus on engaging specific muscles in dance that I wasn’t able to isolate before."
Grace French
"Going to the gym has become my self care and something I look forward to. I don’t feel as much anxiety about the machines/exercises. My upper body and back have been feeling a lot stronger recently! I can tell a difference in the exercises and see it in my body."

“I feel so confident in my body and I feel so strong. My mentality towards health and wellness has changed so much and I'm finally keeping habits I never thought I could like drinking enough water and working out consistently. Also I've been loving how much food freedom I have. It is truly wonderful.”
Ava Eriksen-Oertle
"Working with Lili has been exactly what I needed to give myself confidence and consistency in my dancing! Being able to take care of myself by cross training has always been really overwhelming but the programming is really clear and easy to follow and totally breaks down how to create a healthy routine for yourself so going to the gym feels like self care and not a chore! Along with gym training, Lili pays attention to the rest of my habits to help me create my most healthy lifestyle and be my best!"

Julianne Woodward
“I would absolutely recommend this program because I love knowing that I’m training in the most efficient and effective way. I’m also getting so much support from you that I feel like I wouldn’t get from other trainers because they don’t get what we do. I don’t think I would be able to dance as well as I did if I hadn’t started supplementing and working on my training outside of the studio. I feel like I’ve actually taken charge of my progress and my growth. Thank you!!!!"
Mairi Nicol
"I definitely feel a difference in my everyday life! I feel, happier, healthier, and stronger. I would definitely recommend The Performing Athlete™ Program! You make so much information available - everything from exercises, health, fitness, nutrition, and dance."
Alexandria Finley
"I would definitely recommend the program, I really appreciate the guidance in the gym and the accountability checks. I definitely feel more comfortable in the gym setting which is great- this is setting me up to have a good relationship with exercise/training even after I retire from dance. I think it has also helped me think critically about the good and bad habits that shape my life and what new habits I want to adopt to reach my full potential as an artist. "
