A little about me
Hi I'm Melissa!
I'm a wellness enthusiast. I'm a wife. I'm a mom (to two beautiful humans and an amazing dog). I'm a nature lover. I'm a ballerina. I'm a cook. I'm a Stage 3 breast cancer survivor.
I've been in this field for over 20 years and I'm constantly learning more and educating myself to ensure my clients get the best of the best when it comes to fitness and wellbeing. When you work with me you get my experience, you get details, you get results. I work with your body and lifestyle to ensure the work we do together will be sustainable well beyond our sessions. Together, we'll create a lifestyle that enhances your life and wellbeing - and you'll feel great!
I'm also human, I understand that life is messy and unpredictable. As a mom of two little ones, I know that juggling life can be tough, and self-care can often go on the back burner. As a breast cancer survivor, I know that life can change in an instant. I listen to you, and work with the body and mind that I get on that day.
I am here to tell you that you CAN get where you want to be with a little grit, positivity and hard work and I'm with you every step of the way.
Customized Approach
Wellbeing is a journey, and that journey starts with you. It starts with the life you want to live, how you want to live it, and how you want to feel living it. I can help you get where you want to be and create a lifestyle that is sustainable to your goals. Whether you want to be able to run around with your grandkids pain free, climb a mountain, move better or recover from that injury - let me help you get there.
