Life is short, do the things that make you buzz. Lift weights, eat good food, love your friends, be there for your family. Don’t you think it’s time?

I’ve been there. Lifting weights made me feel unstoppable, and I quickly fell in love with moving my body! But I didn’t have a plan, and didn’t understand I couldn’t just hammer out every session, every day! I wanted to feel and look better, to get faster and gain confidence. I was craving more, I wanted to know the reason behind things, and so I gobbled up courses, certifications, podcasts, articles, and book after book.

I now love sharing this feeling, helping others chase a higher level of fitness, improve health markers, keep up with their kids, and navigate midlife changes!

As a coach I help clients discover the sweet spot of great nutrition, balanced training and healthy lifestyle habits that keep them kicking ass no matter what age!

  • I wanted to get back in shape and lose a little weight, but I had tried other things, and knew if I wanted to make real change that would not happen just anywhere with anyone. The difference is not just how Jess does things, but how she brings it all together. -Betsy

  • I was nervous I wouldn’t succeed, I was afraid to fail, but Jess has a way of bringing everything together! I always thought I needed to “starve” myself to make changes and we did the opposite. -Emily

  • Training with Jess, I never thought would transform my life in the way that it has. I never see my chiropractor anymore, I am fit for all my outdoor activities, and I can even play full court basketball again! Jess... injects a dose of humor, fun and encouragement into all the workouts. I recently turned 50, and I haven't felt better since college! Josee

  • I realized my cardio-only workouts weren’t getting the job done. I am a focused, committed athlete who loves to bike and run, but I was focused on those same two activities day after day. I love a challenge, and I learned so many ways to incorporate healthy habits into my life! I continue to attend at least two of Jess’s sessions a week. She is the perfect combination of fun and tough. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and creative. -Jess

  • I refer to Jess as the subtle trainer…before you know it the hour is up, and you had a kick-butt workout without realizing it. Jess improved my body composition, energy, and improved my overall nutrition and put the fun back in working out. Her no judgement and motivation set her apart, as well as her knowledge of health and fitness and commitment to helping you reach your goals are why I keep training with her. -Sue

  • After my first group strength session with Jess, I was hooked. Because of her attitude, knowledge and encouragement, I've challenged myself more than I ever have working out on my own. I've gained more strength in 7 months than I did in two years of self directed workouts. Being able to focus on the workout and not having to figure out what I exercises I am going to do is a relief.
