"I was told a long time ago to do what brings my heart joy and find a way to earn a living doing it. I am fortunate enough to be able to do what I love every day. I want to give people the gift of a long, healthy, more energetic lifestyle." –Tina Kendall

Tina Kendall is by far the most amazing person and trainer that I have ever met. When I first started training with Tina I was in a pretty depressed state. I was at the heaviest weight of my life – weighing in at 175 pounds. Today I’m happy to say that I have lost at least 58 pounds, weighing in at 117. Beyond this, I’m feeling much more happy and confident in my life. I attribute much of this to training with Tina. She is extremely inspiring, sweet, enthusiastic and pushes me toward success. Her work outs are fun and after the work outs, I leave feeling accomplished, happy and full of energy. I’m so grateful that I have been able to train with such an amazing person who is so beautiful both inside and out.

 



Tina L. Kendall

      Tina Kendall is a Nationally Certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor. For over 20 years, she has been teaching Group Fitness classes ranging from kickboxing to step, weight training, power sculpting, cycling, aqua, Yoga and Pilates. If you attend any of her classes, you will find that her classes are always filled to capacity; she is a big draw at the gyms where she teaches.

      Tina has been successful with a diverse clientele including, but not limited to athletes, celebrities, stay-at-home moms, teens, busy executives, and the extremely obese. She currently manages a large book of business for personal training clients from Malibu to Hollywood Hills. Tina’s clients are extremely loyal, often driving several miles to participate in her classes and activities. When one devotee was asked what it is about Tina that makes her different from other trainers, without hesitation, she replied,

“Tina is tough, to the point, and big on form and technique. She is pretty intense at times but she gets results! Most of all, she has a big heart and truly cares about her clients. She is one of the family.”

      One of Tina’s strongest assets is her personal success in health and fitness. Tina’s incredible condition has allowed her to compete in several Body Building Competitions. She has placed 1st and 3rd in the Figure Division- all after the age of 40!

     Tina currently lives in the San Fernando Valley in California with her two dogs, Ricky and Lucy. She has a 25-year-old daughter, Jessica, who is currently attending college to become a teacher. When asked about her greatest accomplishment, Tina always refers to Jessica. When Jessica was just under a year old, Tina and Jessica’s father divorced. With the help of her family, Tina was able to work to support an autonomous life for herself and Jessica. For most of Jessica’s life, Tina carried a heavy load; always working a full-time job and several part-time jobs ranging from serving tables to cleaning houses. When Jessica was only 18 months old, she was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia. She underwent several surgeries and wore a full body cast for nearly 2 years. This calamity only motivated Tina to work harder and to never give up. Jessica experienced a full recovery and has never had any limitations from this condition. In fact, she has emulated her mother’s active lifestyle. Tina and Jessica have always maintained a very close relationship. Having prevailed through hardships together, Tina and Jessica have become empowered by a determination to never give up and fight with all you’ve got. This resolve has become a trademark of Tina’s character.

"My mom is a deadly combination of fighter and lover. She is driven, fierce, and talented at what she does. At the same time, she is overwhelmingly passionate and gives of herself freely. I have never known someone more full of vigor and spirit. She has taught me that I can be a woman of grace and also grab the bull by its horns."
