About Teresa

Getting in shape shouldn’t be a punishment. It’s an amazing and empowering lifestyle decision that anyone can make. I believe in finding the pleasurable side of fitness; and while there may be a sore muscle or two along the way, the benefits of fitness are worth the discomfort. I have developed my training regime by working with a variety of people and always love adapting my program to new clients.

I know first hand the impact training has because I began my journey with a trainer. I was used to being chunky (avg 200 lbs) but I finally said enough, I was tired of looking at the mirror and not being happy or always worrying if my clothes hid my fat. Fitness training helped me dissociate my personal value from the size of my clothes. Secondly, the training taught me to get back up when I had a setback and to not shy away from a challenge but rather try and try again until I succeeded. While not an easy journey, it had such an enormous impact on my life that I was ignited to help others live a happy and healthy life.
