“I’d rather regret the things I’ve done than regret the things I haven’t done.”
Natalie’s BIO.
She/Her/Hers
As a certified personal trainer of over 13 years, Natalie believes movement should support your life and the activities that are important to you, and focuses on helping clients feel capable and strong wherever they’re at. She works with both individuals and partners and her coaching style is grounded in respecting all bodies, and creating customized workouts that adapt to your energy levels, mobility needs, and real-life schedule.
She specializes in working with pre/postnatal and menopausal women, folks returning from injury, and anyone who’s ever felt out of place in a traditional gym. She’s studied under physical therapists, and is certified to help you heal from and manage joint pain and injuries.
She has been a competitive pole dancer and aerialist for 12 years, and when she’s not training with kettlebells and weights, she’s out hiking, standup paddle boarding, and looking for adventures.
If you're looking for a trainer who meets you where you're at, listens to your goals, and makes fitness more accessible, Natalie would love to work with you.

TESTIMONIALS.
I first enlisted Natalie's help in order to get me in the best shape leading up to my wedding. She has been INCREDIBLE to work with. I make significant improvements EVERY SINGLE week with her. Her energy and genuine enthusiasm for her job keep me excited to get my butt kicked during each of our sessions.

Personal Goals: Deadlift my bodyweight & be strong AF!
I've worked out with over 5 different personal trainers over the years, and Natalie is without a doubt the best one I've ever worked with. I sought her out when I had gone over a year without exercising and felt intimated at the gym. Natalie's body-positive approach to personal training is both rare AND incredible and has helped me feel safe and comfortable reconnecting with my body again.

Personal Goal: To move consistently without pain
I've been wanting to work with Natalie for years and finally took the plunge and booked my first appointment with her and never looked back. It's been more than 4 months (omg!) and I feel stronger, happier and my confidence is growing. She pushes me so much, makes me laugh SOOO much, makes me lift heavy things SOOOO much and I am better for it. She's tough, she won't let me get away with anything, but she is always so rewarding and makes me feel like a queen. Give her a shot, you won't regret it!
