About Me
My fitness career began in 1998 when my Tae-kwon-do teacher asked me to teach the 8 pm women’s kickboxing class. That’s when my love for teaching fitness began. I purchased my first franchise, StrollerFit - Exercise With Your Baby, in 2003. It included programs such as Restore the Core and Baby Bootcamp. I have been so fortunate that my clientele has also extended to the wiser population, and I have trained many clients in their 70’s and 80’s. Over the last 25 years, I received certifications in different fitness modalities and personal training. Every year, I attend the IDEA World Fitness Convention, where I receive new educational opportunities and learn new research in fitness and exercise.
In my personal life - I have two beautiful daughters, two dogs, two guinea pigs, and one amazing husband. We enjoy bike rides, dog walks, and home-cooked meals.
I’m not on social media, so if you want to get to know me some more, please message me to schedule a call or your first free personal training session.
“Melissa is the reason why my 50’s have been the most healthy and fit time of my life. She is truly empathetic and nurturing, all the while kicking my butt.”
— Megan D.
These are some of the fitness tools I use to keep your workouts fun, fresh, challenging, and super effective.
“I have been doing core work in my home under Melissa’s guidance for 5 years. I have never felt and looked better!”
— Allen L.
