Renee Moodie is probably the most patient, helpful trainer I have had in a long, long time.

We have worked in large groups, small groups and on a one-on-one basis, and she never ceases to amaze me with her patience, how tuned in she is to individual needs, her understanding of people and the dynamics of working with difficult and often complex personalities.
