About
Hi there, I would be very happy to work with you to help you reach your goals, create a healthy lifestyle and give you the extra push you need. I have been a personal trainer and nutrition coach helping people with their health and fitness for 10 years now. I have a very extensive background personally and professionally, I did gymnastics, cheerleading and dance, competed as a bodybuilder for 6 years, trained in CrossFit for 4 years, and now focus on exercising to feel good, strong and functional. I specialize in building healthy relationships with food and your body, general health, women's hormones, muscle building, prenatal and postpartum fitness, weight loss, strength training, sports specific training, nutrition and overall health and fitness. I include a specific nutrition plan when you get training and I make sure we cover every aspect of health and fitness to make sure you reach your goals. My sessions are 1 hour long and I include a training plan for you to follow on the days when you are not training with me. I have a home gym I train out of so there is no one else in the gym when we workout.
I love helping my clients reach their goals and I make it a priority that they always do. I go out of my way to help my clients succeed and make sure they have the tools they need in every aspect of their life.

I really like Taylor. We got into contact during the beginning of covid- 2/2020, choose the 15 sessions package for $500, and were only able to do 5 before covid and life got the best of me. She was very understanding and respectful about everything and stated we could start back up when I’m free and extended our sessions deadline. She’s a great trainer and I want to continue working with her.

Y’all- let me just stop your search here. Hire Taylor. Do it. You won’t find a trainer who is as open, honest, supportive, RESPONSIVE and knowledgeable and real. Literally. Her style is human and she really engages in a shared process. She is also such a lovely human and I always look forward to our weekly check ins. She won’t baby you- you still have to CHOOSE to do the work but she’s there for the process and the support and the real ness. I’ve only been with her for three or four weeks but my entire perspective on consistency, food, guilt and shame around bodies has shifted entirely. I couldn’t have found a better fit. I’m never leaving (Sorry not sorry Taylor 😅)

Taylor has literally changed my life. I contacted her and within the week we had met to go over my goals, habits and needs. Within the first month I began to see results, she doesn’t just train with you, she teaches you how to be healthy and make healthy choices. She is there whenever you need her and she is just as passionate about helping you meet your goals! After hitting my first goal (dropping significant weight), we are now working on my next. I plan to train with her as long as I possibly can. To anyone who is concerned about whether or not she is the right trainer, I can tell you from experience that she is the best.

So far I've had 4 sessions with Taylor and many more planned. She motivates me and challenges me in the exact way a trainer should. She cares greatly for her work and her clients, it shows in everything she does. I highly recommend her to anyone of any fitness level.

Taylor has been absolutely amazing since day one. When I began to look into personaltraining, I was a little nervous. I was worried about everything from hiring a horrible trainer who yelled at me or was uninterested to not having enough money to really commit to it. Taylor quickly calmed all of those fears. When I met for our free consult she was straight forward and professional while still being very personable. I took the leap and went for it and I have been SO happy with my results. Not only does Taylor completely know what she's doing, but she charges a very reasonable price and is always available to answer any questions I have at any time of the day. Shes fun and encourages me to live the best lifestyle I can. I promise if you hire her, you will not regret it.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer packages and how my pricing is set up, the price per session gets cheaper with the more sessions you purchase. I also offer new client specials. For my online and remote training, I charge by the month and also offer new client specials.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to do a phone consultation to get an idea of where someone is at with their goals, experience and overall struggles they are having so I know how to best help them. Each client is different, and I like to learn about each of them so that I can give them what they are needing. If they are an in-person client, I use our first session to see where they are at with their fitness, so I know how to proceed. If they are an online client, I go through the same initial process and then create their nutrition plan and workout plan based on all of that information so that their plan is tailored to them.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied exercise science and nutrition at Portland state. I am certified through AAI/ISMA and NASM for personal training. I have been a trainer/ nutrition coach for 10 years now and have a ton of experience with not only a wide range of clients but also personal experience. I was a gymnast, dancer, cheerleader, and have done bodybuilding, CrossFit, and prenatal fitness.
