Testimonials
I started training with Jake and the IEP team in 2023 and initially knew their approach to movement, training and performance was on a whole different level. No one in the LE or Mil training world was addressing this critical need in the way they do. The IEP team has the education, experience and individual hard skills to enhance any individual or departments training program. The practical performance based approach is something I support 100%. The way they address not only performance but combine it with individual hard skills is something that anyone can benefit from. I’ve been using their methods and programming in my own training and am extremely happy with the improvements I continue to make.
Matt Pranka
Xray Alpha LLC
I’ve trained with hundreds of instructors from all over the world, seen what they bring to the table, and while there are many good ones, Jake and the crew from IEP have truly found a niche that was lacking and filled it with solid knowledge. Despite being at the pinnacle of their craft, they’re still pushing their own growth and constantly evolving new ideas, drills, and training strategies... Plus, they’re just good dudes.
Joe Farewell
Instructor/Professional Shooter
Even having been athletic all my life and playing on a nationally ranked college lacrosse team, there were still many valuable pointers, tips, and lessons to be learned while working with Jake at In Extremis Performance. Regardless of your previous athletic experience, it’s well worth attending a course and tapping into their expertise on the topic of movement with a rifle or handgun.

IEP provides a unique framework for firearms and tactical mobility training. Their top notch instructors are able to effectively and efficiently show the correlation between efficient movement and effective firearm performance. I highly recommend this training to all law enforcement officers.

Persident, TTPOA
Jake has been working diligently to bring the training industry something it’s never seen before and it’s very interesting. Instead of a shooting coach that can move, he’s a movement coach that can shoot. And I love it.
Mark Smith
JBS Training Solutions
The guys at In Extremis Performance understand efficiency and movement from a high level. If you are serious about improving your skill set with not only shooting, but in any athletic endeavor. I highly recommend training with In Extremis Performance.

I am 78 years of age and have two replaced knees, a replaced hip, anemia, and arthritis in my lower back. Mariu took me on as a client about one year ago. She proved herself to be a professional and friend while guiding me to a better life.
Richard S.
Group Training
I had the opportunity to train with Mariu in a group setting in Raleigh a few years ago. Although it was a group event she focused on each individual and understood what their abilities and goals were and would work with them at their own pace to accomplish those goals. Mariu is very knowledgeable, patient, helpful, a motivator and care about the overall health and wellbeing of her clients. Mariu is the best but don’t take my word for it, you should experience her fitness training and her approach to help you get on a better path to wellness.

Mariu is the BEST! I have been an athlete all of my life and was looking for guidance on how to work out without hurting myself since Im not the spring chicken used to be. Mariu has been attentive, extremely knowledgeable, patient as I learn what I can and cannot master. She pushes me and encourages me but not to a point where I feel like I can’t speak up if I’m uncomfortable. She is also teaching me a lot about health, nutrition, and my body. I absolutely adore her and appreciate her! I’ve connected her with my daughter because I trust her so much! I’m so grateful to have met Mariu!

Senior Fitness
I began my fitness journey as a senior citizen, choosing to prioritize my health at retirement. Yes, I’m a little late to the game, but I have a trainer like no other. I began my training with mhFitness, Mariu Hinds, about a year ago. She has been such a blessing to me and my fitness journey. Mariu is one of the most positive & inspiring human beings I know, and she encourages me to be the best I can be. At every session, she challenges me with each exercise, every set. She focuses on my strengths, but behind the scenes, she pushes me to strengthen my weaknesses. Mariu works with a holistic approach, incorporating activity, nutrition, and mindfulness…and did I say fun?! I was never that girl…the one who couldn’t wait to get to the gym. And my favorite part is still leaving. But when I do, I leave knowing that I left it all on the floor because of the encouragement and expertise of a very skilled friend and trainer. And yes, we do have FUN! I would recommend Mariu Hinds for your fitness needs regardless of your age. She will develop a plan that fits your specific needs.

Update... In March, I reached out to Mariu to help me to get in shape prior my son's wedding which was May 25th, the same year. I was at the point that going up a dress size was necessary. I was determined to remain the same dress size . Mariu created a exercise program and modified my eating habits. I didn't have go up a size and felt great in my dress during the wedding. In fact, I am now able to wear my old clothing that used to be way to tight for me.
Mariu is not only highly qualified and energetic, but her passion for fitness is truly infectious. Her expertise shines through in every session, and her dedication to helping others achieve their health goals is truly inspiring.
What sets Mariu apart is not just her fitness expertise, but also her ability to create a welcoming and supportive environment. She started a fantastic group class at a retirement home, and it's been a massive hit! The residents are engaged, motivated, and having a blast while staying active. It's wonderful to see how she's positively impacting their lives.
Aside from her excellent training skills, Mariu also offers high-quality fitness clothing that I've personally fallen in love with. She has an eye for recommending the perfect outfit that's both stylish and functional for each workout. It's like having a personal stylist along with a fitness trainer!
If you're looking for a health and fitness expert who genuinely cares about your well-being, Mariu is the one to go to. Don't miss out on the opportunity to train with someone who's not only very fit herself, but who also knows how to make fitness exciting and enjoyable for everyone.
She has many certifications and is highly qualify to take your fitness to the next level. Her slogan is "Your fitness is my business"!
