The opinions of my clients are important! Thanks to each of you who wrote to tell me your story. You ALL worked very hard and I am so proud of each of you. Your emails were cut and pasted as they were received. Thank you...Never give up, never surrender.
To Whom It May Concern
I highly recommend Dennis Mason as a water therapist/trainer. I have had the pleasure of working out with Dennis for the past two years and I have found a complete difference in my body composition. My muscle tone is so much firmer now and I actually have a waist line!
I would love to work out with Dennis every day; however I no longer have a house in Palm Springs, so I don’t have that opportunity right now. However, I am in the process of finding another place – and one of the reasons is because of Dennis.
Besides being as knowledgeable as he is about muscle groups and how to work them, Dennis is one of the nicest people I have ever met.
Try him – you’ll love him.

Dennis,
I had a surprise yesterday. I was a little foggy yesterday morning getting ready for work.. pulled out a pair of pants and put them on... they felt kind of snug.. not eye bulging out snut, but snug... and I freaked.. I thought OMG ... one week away from Dennis and my body is already retreating to it's porky self... so depressed..
Then I thought.. these pants feel new.. come to find out, I had pulled out a pair of pants that I had purchased 2 years ago when my goal was to get into size 34's... couldn't get into them when I bought them.. by golly, those were the ones I now had on!!!!! HAPPY HAPPY DANCE!!!!! My goal all along has been to fit into size 34's comfortably... and here I was .. in them.. not 100% comfortable just yet, but damned close enough to wear them all day without leaving a crease on my stomach! so THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just for the record.. those size 34 pants I can now wear... by the way, THEY DON"T HAVE AN ELASTIC WAIST!!! They are REAL size 34's! Can you tell I'm thrilled? I am now a very happy pup…thanks again for helping me become a better me.

To Whom it concerns;
I have used aerobics and moderate weightlifting all of my adult life. Just used methods I read about or heard about at the gym but never with a personal trainer.
I had reached the point where no matter how hard I worked in weight lifting or aerobics, I was not getting results for my efforts and was losing muscle mass and muscle tone and feeling a loss vitality.
Dennis Mason was recommended to me as a personal trainer and even though I thought I knew enough about keeping in shape, but seemed to be losing ground on my own, I went for a training session with him.
I am 74 years old and felt that Dennis, being in his mid sixties and in great shape himself, would be sensitive to any limitations I may have due to my age. And, perhaps teach me some things I had been missing.
The first session with Dennis showed me he is a fountain of knowledge regarding getting the most out of a training session. My workouts became fun again I was astounded by the rapid increase in muscle mass, muscle tone and improved energy. The results far exceeded my expectations.
I learned Dennis has a lifetime of experience which he uses very effectively to help his clients improve their health through a variety of workout routines so that each session is fun and produces results.
Dennis is also very helpful in rounding out his training programs with his experience in healthy nutrition which he tailors to each clients needs whether it be loosing excess body fat or gaining muscle mass and strength.
After two years of training with Dennis with great success, I’m eagerly anticipating the coming year for the continued strength, vitality and sense of wellbeing. Wonderful reward for the two or three sessions each week.

Dennis has been my Coach for the last two years. Three sessions a week with Coach Mason have helped me get back into shape after moving from Los Angeles, settling into a new job and home and, for a time, neglecting myself. The bonus is the friendship that I have developed with Coach Mason.
He is a wise and committed man determined to spread the word that all of us can maintain a lifelong effort to maintain our maximum health and fitness. His fitness zealotry is tempered by his wonderful sense of humor and zest for life.
I love my Coach and can’t imaging life without my three weekly sessions that are about so much more than my shoulders and pecs – which by the way are pretty fabulous thanks to Coach!

Dennis,
I am 67 years old and I went on vacation for 10 days in Palm Springs. Before I left I had decided to treat myself to learning more about physical fitness and food nutrition. I looked at seveal web sites and decided that Dennis Mason was the man who could help me with my goals. I was so right in choosing Dennis as my trainer. We set up an 8 session program based on my goals, and I achieve everyone. Dennis has great energy, knowledge, and wisdom for training and working with the senior set.
Thanks Dennis! You are the best!

Dennis,
I am a 59 year old male who had open by pass surgery last year. I have been training with Dennis Mason for almost two years. Dennis's training has been wonderful for me because he has a great deal of knowledge about physiology and exercise. His sessions have always been fun to do but also very beneficial physically and mentally. I always feel safe with the exercises we do because I know I won't injure myself. As a result of my training with Dennis, I am physically in much better shape, from a cardiopulmonary perspective, I have improved the strength of my heart and mentally I am in a better state of mind. In addition to our physical training, Dennis shares his knowledge of nutrition and vitamins/supplements. He has given me several good ideas of how to improve my diet which I think has helped me maintain an appropriate weight.

Dennis,
In planning for my retirement at 70, (now 71) I promised myself to commit to
an exercise program.
I read an article by Dennis Mason about his water exercise program. It peeked my
attention so I placed it aside until I was ready to give this a try. What I wasn't prepared for was the full range of service and monitoring that Dennis brings to the table. He did a complete body check-out (weight, measurements, body-fat ratios, etc). He also asked me what my personal goals were. For me it was to lose weight and tone up my body.
We started with my writing down everything I ate every day. He would look at my sheets and smile at some and grunt at others. Always he wrote in how I needed to change some basic eating habits like where to include more protein and less this or that. It's been over six months and the results as Dennis would say, are "astonishing." I'm not satisfied yet, although am very happy with the results.
I'm not sure how much weight I've lost, because mostly there has been a big shift from fat to muscle. Clothes are definitely fitting better and friends have taken notice. We now do two days a week with hard weights at the gym and one day doing pool exercises.
I highly recommend Dennis to anyone serious about improving their health with someone who is committed to his own health program. He has many years of experience and doesn't just rely on that knowledge. He is constantly up-dating himself with the latest information as well as adjusting his routines for each of his clients.

Dennis Mason has the right touch. He knows just what my new-to-exercise body requires to begin re-building strength after years of neglect. He is patient and kind and makes me laugh just enough to keep me on track to better health.

Dennis,
I'd like to write a big THANK YOU for the fabulous workouts you provided me in the pool. Since I live with osteoarthritis water workouts are perfect for providing me a wonderful mode of exercise without damaging my aching joints. Your sensitivity to my issues and limitations made me feel comfortable and encouraged me to "give it my best." I appreciate your professional understanding that my body is no longer at its performance peak and tailoring the class to my abilities. I was pleasantly surprised that I never needed any pain medications after your vigorous teachings.
After our 2 week class, I felt so strong, toned and had a general all-around great feeling. Oh, and I slept much better too! So Thanks again friend, I can't wait for our next class when I return next season to Palm Springs.
