"I started my journey with Valentina, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Besides being a wonderful person, she is an extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and meticulous coach.
From the very beginning, she created a truly tailored training plan, adapted to my needs, goals, and schedule. What I have appreciated most is her ability to listen: every piece of feedback I provide is carefully considered, and the programme is refined and improved over time, leaving nothing to chance.
Her attention to detail is truly impressive, from choosing the most suitable running shoes to nutrition and training planning. Everything is approached with great expertise and care.
If you are looking for a running coach who combines technical expertise, availability, and a genuinely personalised approach, Valentina is the right person. I recommend her without hesitation"
"I’m a mother and a full-time worker, and I was looking for a running programme that would help me lose the weight I had gained during pregnancy without completely disrupting my weekly routine. Staying consistent with training had always been my biggest challenge, but with Valentina I discovered a method that not only allows me to keep up with all my commitments, but also benefits both my body and my mind.
I’m achieving great results even though I don’t train every day, because she has created a running plan perfectly tailored to my personal situation. In the past, I tried working with other personal trainers, but Valentina is the only one who has made me feel truly heard and understood, without the pressure of believing that I have to overdo it to achieve results.
She supported me in choosing the right running shoes, correcting the flaws in my running form, and, most importantly, developing the right mindset to stay consistent. I highly recommend her to everyone"
"I met Valentina while looking for someone who could create a personalised running programme for me, starting completely from scratch. I had very little athletic background—less than six months of training experience—and my goal was specific but realistic: to run consistently three times a week and improve my pace to 6:00 per kilometre, without getting injured or pushing myself too hard.
From the very first assessment, her attention to detail was clear. She carefully considered my starting point, goals, running shoes, recovery, and every other relevant factor. The resulting plan was progressive and well designed, with several weeks of increasing training load followed by a recovery week. She also introduced the RPE scale as a guide, helping me learn to listen to my body rather than constantly forcing the pace. No generic, one-size-fits-all plans and no rigid pace targets at all costs.
The results speak for themselves. In just one month, my average pace improved from over 7:30 to 6:26 per kilometre. I completed my first long run of almost 8 kilometres and, for the first time, I am running regularly three times a week without injuries or losing motivation. She also pays close attention to practical details: her recommendation to upgrade my running shoes came at exactly the right time, just as the increasing mileage was beginning to take its toll.
If you are looking for a coach who combines professionalism, a structured method, and a genuinely supportive approach—someone who helps you improve without ever making you feel inadequate—Valentina is the right person. I recommend her without hesitation"
