Description

Specialties

The Exercise Space will provide you with functional fitness and nutritional guidance which will inspire and motivate you to find a balance. You will learn different exercises every session, and by making small changes within your life, we’ll reach and stay within your goals. Men and women of all ages and fitness levels are welcome. Training is available at our space, your space, or outside. We can show how to get fit with just your own body weight and a few simple tools.

History

Established in 2007.

Dawn Brent started The Exercise Space as an answer to those who wanted an option to ‘gym’ trainers. Having worked in a gym and being challenged to meet sales quotas as a means to determine success — I left that behind to instead spend my passion teaching people how to get fit and find their balance with a healthy lifestyle and having fun! The Exercise Space is currently contracted with The Four Seasons Hotel, Seattle and operates out of modest loft style studio in Pioneer Square, downtown Seattle.

I have used personal trainers off and on for the past five years. I’ve had some good ones and I’ve ones that have been okay, if that. I use personal trainers mostly for structure and motivation and it is the only thing that keeps me sane in this world.
Having prefaced with that, Dawn is by far the best trainer I have ever had.
On the mundane side of things, she is reliable and always prepared — ready to modify your workout by how you’re feeling. She is personable and easy going.
On the fantastic side of things, her programs and plans are awesome. This is no mega gym experience. All her exercises work multiple areas. She works core better than anyone I’ve ever worked with. You’ll get strength work and cardio work mixed in. She is a good motivator.
Did I mention you’ll get a lot of core work?
Her space, well, has character. don’t let that deter you. It matters nothing. It is private.
I always feel fantastic after her workouts. Sometimes the muscles sing a bit the next day, but in a good way.

Dawn is the perfect trainer.
* No judgment – she sincerely wants help you be fit and healthy, and doesn’t care what shape you’re in.
* She knows her business. When I started seeing her I was limping and my doctor and physical therapist couldn’t cure it. She could tell what it was as soon as I walked in, and I was walking better in an hour.
* Her workouts are tailored to you. She assesses you as you do the workout, and will adjust as you go along.
* Every workout is different. In 1−½ years, there have been no repeat workouts, and very few repeats of individual exercises.
* Every session is a full-​body workout.
* And, she’s a great person to spend an hour with!

Dawn has literally changed my life. I came to her with abdominal nerve damage that made traditional exercises like situps and pushups painful. I had compensated for years, and was all lopsided. One leg was bigger than the other, my balance was off, etc. I don’t know all the certifications Dawn has (but I know she has several), but I do know that she is so incredibly knowledgeable about what she does that she has evened out my muscle groups, strengthened my core, improved my cardio fitness, and made me stronger and happier. Dawn’s workouts are fun and challenging, and like other posters have said, they are tailored to the individual and never exactly the same. We also discuss nutrition and recipes. Up until recently I did all this in just one workout with her a week (and she gives homework if you’re willing and able, but not if it’s too much). Now I try to squeeze in a second workout with her here and there. To top it all off, Dawn is a really good person.

Dawn Brent is the best personal trainer. She customizes the workout and diet plans for each client, so you get a lot of individual attention to your particular goals and never get bored. It is never the same workout twice! The Exercise Space is completely private so you can work out your own way to your own music, at your own pace, etc. Having a studio to yourself is so great, you really should try it, because really: being able to grunt and swear out loud totally helps with finishing that third set. Dawn is certified NASM, NFPT, and sports nutrition, so you know you can trust her advice and that she’ll always conduct sessions in the most professional manner.
Try it out, I think there are new client deals. This was the only thing that worked for me to lose over 20 pounds. Why not improve your fitness like the celebs do and get a personal trainer? It is more affordable than you think, because even if you only go like once a week, Dawn can give you homework to do on your own and keep your diet on track by checking on your food diary. She does some group classes as well, which are a total deal.

Dawn is the best trainer ever! She does an awesome job motivating her clients to reach their goals and makes working out a lot of fun. She has so many different workout routines, I never did the same workout twice. I highly recommend The Exercise Space if you are looking to get healthy the right way.
