Hey!
I'M KAREN
A native Floridian, I grew up in South Florida (Miami, Key West and Fort Lauderdale) and attended Florida Institute of Technology in Melbourne, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. I spent 3 years in West Africa in the Peace Corps and then, after returning, I spent twenty-eight years as a financial advisor. I retired to pursue my passion: helping others realize their fitness and wellness goals. All these professions have something in common: helping people define their goals, creating a plan to achieve them, and then coaching people to successfully realize those goals. It is my greatest joy to help people grappling with pain and discomfort to regain their active lives.
LEARN MOREIt’s More Than Personal Training
The fitness industry fails the people who need it the most because it's unapproachable.
Most fitness programs focus on tactics. They promise to deliver results if only you'll follow their plan. Regardless of your specific goals, limitations, and ideal outcome, most programs ask you to follow a general prescription.
I believe you deserve an individual program that meets you where you are, an environment that is welcoming, and a professional to support you relentlessly along the journey.
