💪Super Strong With…All things nutrition (macros, meal planning, sustainable plans), woman’s health, general fitness

I believe that health and wellness are the foundation that the rest of our lives spring from. My personal coaching philosophy stems from a deep belief that health is the vehicle that can usher in total life transformation. As you come into alignment with who you are, what’s important to you, and who you want to be, those intentions will bleed into your daily actions/habits/and mindset. Fitness helped to take me from a college dropout prone to anxiety and addiction to confident, thriving, and living a life of purpose. As we dive into WHY YOU are on this journey and what it means to you, we will come to know what shifts we need to make. You are the expert on where you want to go – I’m here to give you a roadmap on how to get there.

💪Super Strong With…Mindset, Strength Training, Menopause, Postpartum, Sustainable Habit Change, Corrective Exercise

My passion for health started during my time as a collegiate athlete, where I realized the immense impact that both nutrition and fitness had on my quality of life. Through my own health challenges, I went on to become a registered dietitian and certified personal trainer.

Today, I help guide others on their health journeys to feel their best, while simultaneously finding sustainable results. My favorite quote reads, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.” — and my ultimate goal is to teach you the necessary tools so that you may apply them throughout the remainder of your life. I am a proponent for creating a healthier lifestyle overall, without the need for extreme dieting and restrictions. I believe in small daily changes that will add up overtime to create remarkable improvement. Most of all, I’m passionate about helping you become the best version of yourself!

💪Super Strong With…weight management, sports nutrition, women’s health, gut health, fitness

My career in fitness has spanned over 12 years. As a Fitness Coach, I have helped countless people lose weight, run marathons, clean up their nutrition and even helped them touch their toes. More importantly, I’ve helped people feel confident in their own skin! Health and fitness have always been a passions of mine. I enjoy taking on new challenges and experiences.

I played on an international roller derby team, competed in a figure competition, ran a marathon and also played college softball. I have been a vegetarian for over 15 years. This way of life has opened up my eyes and taste buds to unlimited flavors but has also taught me an important lesson about planning and coming up with different tactics to ensure the food I’m eating is supporting my health. I believe in viewing food as fuel and/or medicine for our bodies. Once you understand the impact healthy eating has on your health, the possibilities are endless and also tasty!

💪Super Strong With…Marathon training and plant-based eating

I am a positive, energetic coach with a can do attitude. I am a mother of three and have found that fitness can help me maintain focus and a healthy balance.

I love working with people and helping them develop an active lifestyle and positive mindset that will help them push themselves further than they thought possible. I have a passion for fitness, true crime podcasts and peanut butter!

💪Super Strong With…Women’s Strength Training and Contest Prep, lifestyle fitness, busy moms!

I love coaching! From a young age, I knew I wanted to be a teacher. I’ve worked in education for 15 years. I love connecting with my clients, coaching them through big wins, setbacks, and mindset struggles. When I was younger, I struggled with worthiness, my weight, and how to achieve my goals. Working with clients to help them become their strongest selves is one of my passions.

💪Super Strong With…Menopause, pre and postnatal

My goal is to have the most positive impact that I can on the lives of the people that I work with; helping them become the healthiest, happiest version of themselves.I believe everyone deserves a right to good health and to be happy with themselves inside and out.I absolutely love to empower and teach people how to transform their bodies in a simplified, fun, healthy and sustainable way. I understand that everyone has a unique formula that works best for them.

I am passionate about helping people find their magic key, so they can enjoy their lives to the fullest whilst looking, feeling and performing how they want to.

💪Super Strong With…Hypertrophy training, Functional training, Nutrition coaching, Creative macro friendly recipes

Divergent interests and personality traits is my MO. I love schedules and spontaneity, hanging out inside to read and heading outside to run, spending time with people and being alone.

I try to balance it all without annoying my family too much. I consider myself an extroverted introvert who loves relaxing and being active.

💪Super Strong With…Endurance training, vegans, pre & postnatal, basketball and athletes

I have been in fitness for over a decade now, I am certified in many different modalities and think that it helps me as a trainer as I can draw from all of those to help create fun workouts and keep them interesting! I have been doing macros for myself and clients for years and can help you tweak just about anything to make it work for your ratios!

I love being able to meet you where you are at, no matter where you are in your fitness or nutrition journey and being able to help you reach your goals. I live somewhere near a beach with my husband, 2 dogs and a cat. I love cycling, SUP, lifting heavy things, traveling (pre-pandemic), the beach, anything true crime, gardening and give me all of the animals please!

💪Super Strong With…Pilates, core/pelvic floor work, mobility, cycling/endurance training, strength training

Growing up, I was always active and loved cooking from scratch. I dabbled with a couple of sports, but I was 100% passionate about cheerleading. I spent 20 years as a military spouse and mother. We moved often, but my love of exercise and good nutrition followed me wherever we moved. Over the years, I have enjoyed a variety of activities: strength training, sprint triathlon, 5&10ks, obstacle races, rappelling, fly fishing, hunting, camping…as long as it doesn’t involve a ball, I’ll try it.

After my husband retired from the military, I decided to put my degree to use and become a personal trainer. I guess you could say, I’m still a cheerleader. I just cheer people on hitting their personal goals.

💪Super Strong With…Strength Training, Meal Planning around LIFE, Meal Prep

I am a wife, mom, dog mom, and athlete. I started my own fitness journey in 2005, and I have been passionate about health and fitness ever since! I know first-hand what it feels like to be uncomfortable in my body, and I know how good it can feel to do the work that is needed to pull out of that feeling.

I love to help my clients build strong habits that last a lifetime! I love to help people find their journey towards their strongest selves. I enjoy running, lifting, yoga, and water sports. When it’s time to rest and recover, you’ll find me reading a good book 🙂

💪Super Strong With…Endurance training, lifting, CrossFit, running, functional fitness, mindset, and body recomposition

I’m a mom, wife, empty nester, personal trainer, fitness and nutrition coach, and lover of all things active. I love participating recreationally and competitively in ultra and mountain trail running, tennis, golf, cycling, swimming, snowshoeing, skiing and anything else where I can move my post-menopausal body!

💪Super Strong With…Menopause, Endurance sports (marathon/ultra running; biking; hiking; swimming), plant based eating, tennis, pickleball, golf

My personal fitness journey began over 20 years ago and it carries on to this day. During this time, I realized that I had a passion for helping others navigate what living a fit and healthy life looked like. I enjoy helping people find what works for them and encouraging them through the ups and downs (because there will be ups and downs). The truth is that during many of my downs, early on, I would scratch my workouts, but now they are a must do.

I know that living a fit life is more than the way I look – it is about the way I feel. I have learned through the years that when I put myself first and take care of myself I can be a much better version for everyone else. Being a military wife and mom of three amazing kids I know it is not always easy to take control of fitness and nutrition, but it is oh so worth it!

💪Super Strong With…General fitness, strength training, functional training, weight loss, running, endurance, athletes, busy moms

I have always had a passion for all things related to health, fitness, and nutrition. I have experimented with different diets, supplements, and every type and style of training I can find. From trail running to CrossFit, Pilates, yoga, rock climbing, mountain biking, snowboarding, and jiu-jitsu – I love finding out what I am capable of and how far I can push my body.

The most rewarding aspect for me is helping others discover their own limits and then surpassing them to become the best version of themselves. Although I focus on helping people change their relationship with nutrition and fitness, it goes beyond that. Witnessing people evolve and thrive in every aspect of their lives is what truly makes me love what I do.

💪Super Strong With…Endurance athletes, runners, plant-based diets, weight loss, body recomposition, and strength training

My passion for fitness/nutrition started when I struggled to lose weight after my 3rd son was born. I dove into educating myself, lost the weight and became a Certified Personal Trainer. In my 15 years in the industry, I’ve helped women lose weight, gain confidence, get stronger and feel better about themselves! I want you to experience the same life-changing positive effects that fueling our body via nutrition and exercise has on our lives!

My name is Kelli Burney and I am a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach. My passion for health and fitness spans back as far as I can remember. I played sports all the way up through Division One college soccer and immediately got certified as a Personal Trainer upon graduation. Since graduating, my passion for wellness and resistance training has only continued to grow! With that, helping others in their unique journey with health and fitness has been so fulfilling and inspiring. For fun, I am also a Certified Pilates Instructor.

I am all about finding ways to move that are fun and sustainable for you while also getting those results. Here at Redefining Strength, I hope to use my knowledge and personal journey as a trainer to help as many of you as possible toward your goal!

My name is Sierra and MOVEMENT is my passion! I’m excited to be here! I love to move, I love to study movement, and I love to teach movement. I have a musical theatre, dance, and track and field background (yeah, I know!) 😉 and I combine all of those to make fitness fun again!

💪Super Strong With…Beginners, Busy Professionals/Bosses, Former Collegiate and Professional Athletes, Pre and Post Natal, 

My journey into fitness and nutrition started with a personal mission to lose weight and adopt a healthier lifestyle. Along the way, I discovered a passion for helping others achieve their goals. Every client brings a unique ambition, whether it’s losing weight, gaining muscle, or simply feeling better. My job is to craft a plan that fits seamlessly into your life. I firmly believe that any fitness or nutrition regimen should enrich your life, not dominate it.

That’s my aim for every client.
 Let’s ditch the rollercoaster of starting and stopping ineffective routines. There’s a smarter way: work efficiently, not excessively. Let’s build habits that become second nature. Discover a workout style you genuinely enjoy and eagerly anticipate.
 Because life’s too short for workouts that feel like chores. Together, let’s make fitness fun and sustainable—where every step forward is a step toward a happier, healthier you!

Hi I’m Jen and I’m from a small town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I have been a life long athlete, and since I can remember health and fitness has always been a huge part of my life. I’m a passionate, dedicated online nutrition and fitness coach who has been in the industry for 28 years. I am passionate about helping women transform their relationship with food and their bodies- without restriction or unrealistic diets. As a mom of 4, and someone who had her own transformation and journey of losing 111 lbs, I know firsthand the demands of balancing work, family and self-care, so I focus on creating sustainable, empowering changes that fit seamlessly into a busy lifestyle.

I specialize in guiding clients to break free from yo-yo dieting, manage hormonal changes, and boost confidence. I’m here to help clients overcome their unique challenges and unlock a healthier, happier life- one where they feel strong, sexy and unstoppable!

My name is Leigh and I have been excited about fitness and nutrition my whole life. I grew up on the swim team and running cross country but found my love for weight lifting in my early 20s. I felt the need to understand the “why” behind exercise, and I decided to go to physical therapy school to do so. I love helping others understand their bodies better so they can get and remain active, no matter what life throws at them. I am passionate about helping individuals get strong and educating women about their pelvic health and the importance of nutrition. In my spare time you can catch me weight lifting, in a group fitness or spin class, hanging out with my husband and our cat, traveling and trying new foods and experiences. I can’t wait to help you crush your goals and strike that balance in life!

With over 12 years in the fitness industry, I’ve experienced the highs and lows of the journey toward lasting change. I’ve spent years jumping on and off the diet train, pushing through injuries, navigating an illness and dealing with the constant pressure to be perfect. Through it all, I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and most importantly, what truly leads to sustainable change. This is what drives my passion for helping others and guiding them as they navigate their own paths. My approach is centered around meeting people where they’re at and cutting through the overwhelming information surrounding fitness and nutrition. I’m not about quick fixes or extremes; I believe in building on those small, consistent steps that truly lead to meaningful and magical changes over time. When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me ‘dancing’ with kettlebells, listening to old punk rockers, hiking, watching a good movie, or dreaming up my next travel adventure!

💪Super Strong With…Mobility, corrective exercises, coaching and cueing movements, training with kettlebells and all things strength training. Communication, behavior change and exercise programming

I’m Laanna and from an early age I had two passions: movement, preferably as fast as possible, and reading. Because of this, I knew I wanted to work in fitness and be a writer. I started my professional career as a sports writer and eventually gravitated toward training as a tool for mental and physical transformation. I believe in the adage that “exercise is medicine” and that good nutrition can be a cure for most problems. I’m particularly interested in helping women to live their best lives through training and nutrition programs that are tailored to their physiology. I struggled with diet culture and obsessive cardio for a long time. When you’re in the middle of that it’s hard to believe you can overcome it. Now that I am in a healthy place, I want to help others to achieve freedom and enjoyment with food and exercise.

Fitness and health have always been apart of my life in some form or fashion. Growing up I played all kinds of sports. Whether it was softball, basketball, or volleyball, I enjoyed being active, being on a team, and letting my competitive side show. I ended up going to Florida State University for college, where I continued to play sports through intramural and on my sorority team.

I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in Family and Child Sciences and later obtained my Master’s degree in Family Therapy. I love to hike, bake, watch movies, and snuggle my pups!

My adventure with Redefining Strength kicked off in 2016 when I joined as a client and discovered the magical powers of Cori’s programs (and her endless motivation)! 💪✨ It was so inspiring that I dove headfirst into becoming a certified personal trainer myself, ready to help others rock their own fitness journeys. I’ve witnessed how the right tools and a sprinkle of accountability can set the stage for some serious success!

I’ve spent my whole life soaking up the sun in Southern California, but I’m always dreaming of my next travel escape!  When I’m not training, you can find me snapping photos, diving into a good book, getting creative with drawing and painting, or exploring the great outdoors through swimming and hiking. I can’t wait to meet all of you and cheer you on as you crush your health and wellness goals!

I have always had a passion for sports, fitness, nutrition and competition! Sports and activity have always been a huge part of my life. I am a former collegiate athlete and I earned many awards throughout my career that I am still proud of and still brag about  I am a mom of 3 amazing children and one of my favorite parts of who I am is how I mom.

A fun fact about me is I read more books than anyone I have ever met. If you ever need any book suggestions, I am your girl! I also enjoy the beach, working out, playing tennis with my son, spending time with family and my husband, lots of coffee, reality TV shows and walks with my dog. I am very happy to be a part of the RS family and I Look forward to getting to know YOU!

Hello! My name is Nikki and I am a mama of 3 crazy beautiful humans. I was born and raised in California but since then spent 6 years in Oregon and recently took a leap of faith and moved to South Carolina. I grew up a competitive gymnast and my whole life changed when I was forced to quit the only thing I ever loved at 16 because of a back injury.

After that is when my love for fitness and helping others on their journey began. I love to dance, camp, hike, snowboard and really do anything that has to do with water. Sometimes I wonder why I wasn’t created a mermaid because if there’s water – I’m in it!

Passionately caffeinated, I’m always on a mission to sprinkle kindness and support wherever I go, all while fueled by my trusty sidekick coffee. When I’m not doing that, you can find me turning workouts into highly competitive events with my husband lol. And speaking of companions, there’s Jasper, the fluffy CEO of my heart.

I am thrilled to be a part of a team of like-hearted individuals who share a passion to empower others in achieving their dreams.

I have struggled with my weight my entire life. The classic yo-yo dieter. I would binge and restrict and my life was that cycle. I have also struggled with body image and dysmorphia. One thing that has always kept me happy and saved me from those burdens, however, has been fitness.

Staying healthy and strong, having consistency in my workout regimen, making it fun, and most of all- making it a part of my life and my identity. I also love to help others on their journey to being the best version of themselves, encouraging others to seek out confidence and joy in the pursuit of health. It is such an honor to belong to a company that puts the client first and is so dedicated to changing lives. This RS family is here to guide you, support you, and most of all transform you. I am very much looking forward to meeting you! Susan

I am new to the world of fitness and have a passion for creativity and helping others tell their stories. Working toward my journalism degree really showed me that the possibilities are endless in the digital world!

When I am not wrangling up potential unicorns I am doing email marketing for my church and creating content for small business owners in San Diego.

However my true passions are obsessing over my adorable pup Spud and rewatching Parks and Rec and the Office with my husband for the billionth time!

Hi! I’m Lisa, & I live in Kentucky with my 4 amazing kids. Some of my favorite things include lounging on beaches, soaking up sunshine, eating donuts, and watching The Office. I graduated from Morehead State University, but didn’t really find my love for health & fitness until after college, when I started running & training for my first half marathon.

I’ve now been working in the fitness industry for several years as an ACE-Certified Group Fitness Instructor and Registered Yoga Teacher. I am passionate about helping others & am always eager to support people in achieving their health & wellness goals.

In school I was always active playing sports such as volleyball, basketball and softball. I loved working on a team with fellow classmates and being competitive.
