"I attended the MVe Chair training and had an experience like none other. I think ‘fitness fusion’ describes it best… I wasn’t sore from lifting but I was fatigued from the isolation of muscles. It is a great complement to my training. The MVe Trainer [Stacey Lei Krauss] was knowledgeable and motivating. She made me want to learn and got me excited to teach classes of my own."

"The MVe Chair has been a great addition in private trainings to challenge my clients in a new plane of movement and balance."
