Above & Beyond Fitness — personal training that comes to you
Practical, upbeat coaching in your home or on your screen, serving Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Phoenix and the East Valley. Each session is built around your goals, your body, the equipment you have, and the kind of day you’re having. Whether you are starting from scratch, returning after time away, working around an old injury, or training toward something you love, the aim is the same: get stronger, move with confidence, and enjoy the process. Sixteen years coaching clients ages 8–92 — NASM certified, corrective-exercise trained.
Ways to train
- In-home 1:1 — $90/hour, packages down to $80/hour. Your home, your pace. Ellen brings the equipment and adapts each session to how you are feeling that day. All you need is enough clear floor space to move.
- Semi-private — bring a partner, spouse or friend. Train together and pay three-quarters of the normal rate each, while still receiving programming that fits each person individually.
- Virtual — $90/hour, same package pricing, available anywhere by request. A live video session coached in real time, not a recording, from a living room, a hotel room or an out-of-state home, using whatever equipment you have or none at all.
- Free express class — 30-minute virtual full-body workout, Fridays 10:00 a.m. Arizona time (Central time: 11:00 a.m. CST / 12:00 p.m. CDT). Every movement is demonstrated with easier and harder options. No fancy equipment required.
Starting is simple
Tell Ellen what you would like to improve, talk it through in a relaxed 20-minute consultation, choose the format that fits your life, and begin with a session built around you. A first session is about meeting you where you are, not testing you.
Is this a fit?
Above & Beyond may suit you if you are new to exercise, returning after a break, working around an old injury or joint replacement, looking for better strength or mobility, training with a partner, or simply ready for coaching that is challenging without being punishing. Personal training works alongside — not instead of — medical or physical-therapy care, so bring any guidance your doctor or physical therapist has given you.
Packages
- 1 hour — $90
- 5 hours — $435 ($87/hour)
- 10 hours — $850 ($85/hour)
- 20 hours — $1,640 ($82/hour)
- 40 hours — $3,200 ($80/hour)
Buy training hours and use them flexibly across in-home, virtual and semi-private sessions. Time is sold by the hour and redeemable in 15-minute increments. For a one-hour semi-private session, each participant uses 45 minutes from their package, or 90 minutes if one person is paying for both. Cancellations need 24 hours’ notice; inside that window the session is charged, though it can often be rescheduled later the same week if there is availability.
About Ellen
Ellen DeVore found her way into personal training while teaching spin at the YMCA in 2006, certified in 2010, and has been coaching ever since. After 16 years with clients ages 8–92, she has learned that good training is never one-size-fits-all: some days you build strength from a chair, other days you lift, sweat and leave a busy week behind. She holds a B.A. from Kansas State University and studied at the Wellspring School of Allied Health, and is certified through NASM as a personal trainer (CPT), corrective exercise specialist (CES) and fitness nutrition specialist (FNS), with additional training in PWR!Moves® for Parkinson’s-specific movement and in Female Functional Fitness. She and her husband Michael moved to Arizona in 2023, where Above & Beyond Fitness began.
