About

My training offers you empowerment through whatever way you choose. As an experienced martial arts instructor and personal trainer, I offer my clients a boost in confidence, health, and overall physical and mental well being through enriching their lives be it in fitness or self defense. The changes that come with living a healthier, more active lifestyle and arming yourself with knowledge as well as training are undeniable. As someone who lives a very active lifestyle, sharing the joy and passion that I feel at the gym every day is very important to me. My life changed when I began training in martial arts. I experienced a huge boost in confidence, self esteem, and overall happiness. It has become my passion to share that experience with the world, with the added side effect of getting in shape in the meantime.

I have never used a personal trainer before but in the 2 appointments so far I am pleased. I am sore and being pushed to my limit but I'm able to do more than I had any idea I could. Best of all I am sore but not injured!

Went to personal training session. We did a total body fitness workout. I very much enjoyed it. Was tailored to my current fitness level and was challenging but not to the point where I was struggling to keep up with the pace. Very professional and very courteous.

Colleen tailored her training to what I asked for and teaches at a good pace, pushing when necessary. I look forward to working with her more.

Colleen couldn't be more patient with me in my training. She has taught me Bjj weapons and Krav. She tailors the training to your abilities and your learning curve. I look forward to my lessons with her.
