Nancy S

I started life as a dancer, and that need to move morphed into strength training and physical fitness as I moved through my 20s and 30s. I was a personal trainer through those years, focusing on helping people shed body fat, and driven by aesthetics. I’ve come back to personal training in my 50s with a different focus–training for life, rather than training for looks. I love helping people find strength to do the things that really matter to them, and counsel clients on fitness and nutritional strategies that will contribute to healthy aging. A happy by-product is positive changes in body composition and appearance.

I train for living as long and healthfully as possible.

Our first meeting will always be an assessment – I meet you where you are, and starting at the beginning with very little experience is my favorite! Then we move into building a foundation from which you’ll grow. I focus on stability and balance, core and strength, making sure each session is hard enough, but achievable–that motivates my clients to come back and work hard every time!

In her words: I met Nancy in 2008. I had just turned 30, I had just had my 5th baby, and I was in the worst shape of my life. I was also depressed, overwhelmed, and had no energy or direction about how to improve my situation. When she took me on as a personal training client, I was amazed at the results in my first month. The support, accountability, and expertise Nancy offered was what I needed to unlock the motivation I would need to improve my wellness. After about 6 months I lost 40 pounds and was in the best shape of my adult life. Even better, my journey toward improved physical fitness helped me discover things about my mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness that I would not have found otherwise. I can only imagine how many women have and will continue to benefit from her guidance! — Rebecca N.
