My training philosophy starts with specific goals and revolves around functional body movement patterns that we all perform in our daily activities squatting, lunging, hinging at the hip, pushing, pulling, and carrying. Whether it’s day to day living or sport specific training I feel you should practice moving how you will be moving during the game or through life. Together we will build your muscular strength and endurance, improve your balance and agility, and raise your level of cardio vascular fitness. No matter what your goals are I will keep you motivated and moving in the right direction to achieve them!

How I started personal training

In my early thirties I had an accident on a Mt. bike and fractured my clavicle and ribs, I was forced to be inactive while my body recovered, I gained weight and was out of shape, I felt like I had hit a low point in my life, it was then that I decided to take control of my health and wellness and improve my overall level of fitness. I had my ability to be active taken away from me, and I became motivated and dedicated to getting it back, to keep moving and never stop. After two and a half years of daily exercise I decided to become a Personal Trainer and begin a career in the health and wellness industry. My decision to commit to daily exercise was one of the best choices I have ever made. I love sharing what I’ve learned with people who are looking to make changes and positive impact in their health through exercise and living well.

Hey there!  I'm Dana, and I've been a trainer for over 3 years.  My fitness journey began pretty much my whole life.  As a child and into my teens, I had a multitude of back problems, scoliosis and sciatic pain to name a couple.  I credit my mom always taking me the holistic route when it came to helping me better myself, through chiropractic care and acupuncture.  So in my early 20s, I decided to take care of myself holistically by signing up at a local gym and working out with weights.  I fell in love instantly.  Weight training has helped me with, not just my back problems, but any joint pain I've felt along the way.  Evidently, I grew a passion for helping people heal themselves naturally.

When I'm not working as a personal trainer, or working out in a gym, you'll probably find me on a hiking trail, or on a mountain trail.  In my idle time, I'm an avid musician.  I'm a guitarist and have gigged, taught, and recorded frequently over the course of my 18 years playing.  If you're a music fan, we'll have plenty to talk about.  I look forward to meeting you!
