As a young woman Cassie struggled with an unhealthy lifestyle and weight. After years of regression in her health, it began to take its toll physically and mentally. Her first experience to improve her health was simply running with her dog. It was freeing of both body and mind. Then she began going to the gym and working with trainers. She found a new level of what mental and physical fitness meant to her. Her passion for weight training and fitness grew over the years, and she went on to pursue her certified personal trainer credentials. She found her true passion helping others improve their physical and mental health through exercise. Cassie loves being a personal trainer because she gets to help others on their personal journey to improving their overall health and well-being. She is passionate about getting to know each client on a deeper level. She finds true enjoyment in seeing each individual succeed in their fitness goals.
