✨Embrace your inner radiance with Coach Krissy, your self-love fitness mentor!✨
Hello beautiful souls! I am Coach Krissy, and I am so honored to guide you on this empowering journey of self-love through fitness.
My background
Not only am I a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) I am a Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (LPTA) that worked in an Outpatient Clinic for many years. I knew I wanted to work in the fitness or therapy profession since I was 18 years old and was diagnosed with severe arthritis in both of my knees.
I was told to quit running, and doing all the active things I love because of the arthritis. I was devastated, but luckily I was studying Exercise Science and one of my professors recommended I try strength training and yoga to help strengthen my knees. With strength training I was able to eliminate my knee pain and run my first marathon on my 21st birthday it felt so empowering!
I have not had incidents of any knee pain, besides the occasional and very normal soreness, since I started taking amazing care of my body, mind and spirit through strength training, self-love, stretching and a consistent self-care routine!
A Glimpse into My World
The journey to the incredible confident, empowered and strong woman I am today was not always an easy one. It came with a lot of trial and error. I went through many years of battling with my body, never feeling like my body looked or performed “good enough”. I was constantly at battle with my mind and my body.
The last few years of my life have truly been life changing, because I chose to change my mindset to be empowered instead of feeling like a victim. I have read countless self-help books and the common theme is this: you are the author of your own story. This is not just some cliche metaphor, there is profound truth to this. The lens through which you view your life shapes your reality. So, I knew I needed to shift my mindset to joy, to empowering, loving beliefs. I determine my reality, and you best believe I am writing a beautiful and joyFULL narrative from this moment forward. Mic 🎤 drop.
Once I started to take care of my mind, body and spirit from a place of love, empowerment, and compassion my workouts got so much more mindful, effective and FUN! I started to be more aware of the fear and the shaming going on in the fitness industry. I knew I wanted to redefine a new fitness space…
Imagine it, a space where fitness isn’t about fitting into a very narrow and often harmful mold, but instead is about celebrating the masterpiece that is YOU and your already beautiful body! That is the world we are creating here at Coach Krissy Fitness. My own journey into fitness started as a quest for strength, but evolved into a profound exploration of self-love.
Why Self-Love?
Fitness is not just about sets and reps—it truly is a love letter to our bodies. It is a way of showing our body love and attention through purposeful movement. I believe in the transformative power of embracing every inch of our bodies, every curve, every stretch mark, and every beautiful muscle. Together, I want us to redefine what it means to be strong, healthy, empowered, and truly full of joy.
Who is Coach Krissy out of the Gym?
Beyond fitness, you can find me meditating, being out in nature, making delicious and nutritious meals, baking bread, painting and connecting to my creative side, walking my senior dog Eddie, spending quality time with my husband, having tea parties with my girlfriends, taking epsom salt baths, reading, watching Netflix and so much more. I believe life is this beautiful journey; it is about embracing a whole lifestyle that at its core nourishes every unique facet of who you are.
