Hi! My name is Heidi. I am a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and certified group fitness instructor specializing in Les Mills BodyPump & BodyFlow. In addition to fitness, I am a certified Peer Recovery Coach, helping individuals navigate substance use and mental health challenges providing guidance, encouragement, and support. I recognize the powerful connection between mental and physical health and how hands-on stretching improves flexibility, reduces muscle tension, enhances circulation and promotes relaxation—supporting physical recovery and mental clarity. I am excited to be part of a team on the cutting edge of stretching’s benefits—from weight loss and body modifications to enhanced cognition and quality longevity. The science behind stretching continues to evolve. Together let's unlock its full potential to feel and move better every day. I am blessed to be the mother of four. When I’m not cheering them on at their sporting events, you’ll find me chasing the wind on my Harley.
