About
Hello everyone, my name is Darcy and I am a ACE Certified Personal Trainer and ACE Certified Health and Wellness Coach!
Welcome, I can Help!
With over two decades of experience, I specialize in helping women and men over 40 bridge the gap between feeling "stuck" and feeling truly powerful again. It’s common to reach a stage where you feel uncharacteristically sluggish, as if your usual stamina has hit a plateau and left you feeling tired all the time. Many women find themselves frustrated by shifts that feel out of their control—like sudden weight gain, a loss of muscle tone and mass, or even noticing their balance isn't quite what it used to be. My mission is to help you reverse those trends. By focusing on targeted strength and functional movement, we work to kickstart your metabolism and restore the physical confidence you deserve, ensuring you feel energized, capable, and at your absolute best.

I am a 74 year old woman who is overweight and losing mobility. Darcy talked with me to assess my abilities. With her help we developed a routine of exercises I can do on my own. She is very knowledgeable and kind. She really cares for my well being, never pushing beyond my abilities but carefully help me be stronger and more flexible. Highly recommended

I have been training with Darcy (BBD) for over 3 months. I train with her twice a week. Most importantly, I'm sticking to it and it shows!
Darcy is absolutely great. Class starts on time, passes quickly, and is always challenging. From discussing with her, I know she tailors it to your level and your goals, and she often enough checks in to see where you are at, what changes or goals are seen etc.
The exercises are varied enough to keep it interesting, but not too varied to where you're scrambling to follow. truly a good balance.
And I love the format - not having to go the gym, not needing too much equipment (i have dumbbells, a mat, a ball, a bench and some bands), yet being kept accountable.
I tried so many other formats - this one works!
I whole heartedly recommend Darcy (BBD).

“Thanks to Darcy, I’m a much healthier version of myself—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Over 2½ years, with her support and expertise, I lost 50 lbs. despite family losses, injuries, and constant travel. She knows how to adapt workouts, keeps training engaging, offers practical nutrition advice, and truly listens. Darcy has made a huge impact on my life, and I couldn’t be more grateful

Darcy has been a great trainer. She is very punctual and professional in her timekeeping and work ethic. Her workout schedule is uniquely catered to my needs. Since starting with Darcy, my blood pressure has decreased significantly, and I am maintaining a healthy weight. I feel more energetic and feel very light. I can think properly during a stressful day.

Darcy is a knowledge and responsive trainer. She personalizes the sessions so you get what you need to achieve your goals. I have some medical issues and was nervous about working out but she has me feeling strong after just a few sessions. I've learned alot from her and always enjoy our time together. Never thought I'd enjoy working out so much.
