When I was still living in Curacao, I was a professional tennis player. Therefore I started with fitness to build op strong muscles for strength and stamina, but I never took it real serious as a sport. When I came to live to Holland, I stopped playing tennis but kept fitnessing, although it was irregular. In the summer of 2005 I found out about a small competition of the Female magazine. This competition was mainly to motivate unprofessional people to give it a try. I send them a mail for information, but instead they enrolled me in the competition. So, it was then when I realised I had to train hard, because the competition would be in oktober 2005.

A friend of mine told me about Alison Maria. I’ve mailed Ali and we started training immediately. He had only two months to prepare me. Well I can assure you that such little time wasn’t a problem for him. He loves this sport and loves what he does. And he is committed to what he does and what he wants to achieve with you. He sees the strength and weakness in you, so he knows how to work more efficiently for each one of his pupils.

He has a great personality, you can have a lot of fun with him. But not during the training and don’t even think about it when he puts his hip-bag to the site. Then it’s time to screem and complain haha. He is really serious about his trainings and his diets. And he assume you to take it serious too, or he won’t help. He trains very hard, but on his pupils own strength. I happen to suffer the most when he trains me together with other girls, cause he calls me “Bronko”. He thinks I’m super strong so he was always challenging me to see how much I really could support and how long I’d hold on. I liked that, cause that motivated me to give all of me, and to believe in myself, motivating myself. He knew I could make it and that assured me of my own potentials in this sport.

Now I like fitness as a sport and when I’m done studying I want to go professional. And then for sure I will follow Ali’s advices. He is a really good training, that makes u conscious of your possibilities, your strength and your weakness. And he supports you till the end. It’s because of that I know that he does it with love, cause he supported me all the way, motivated me and made me believe in myself. And I love his training. If u really want to be taken serious by a trainer, be trained hard, and have the greatest encourage, Ali has it for you.

Ali I take you for all you’ve thought me. Keep on doing the good work.
