Coach Amy  began her journey in functional fitness in 2019, motivated by a desire to maintain strength and vitality as she aged. At 52, she found herself drawn to the dynamic nature of the workouts, with a particular passion for Olympic weightlifting. However, it was the supportive and inclusive community that truly made her feel at home. She quickly connected with like-minded individuals who were equally committed to personal growth and encouragement.

 

In 2023, Amy transitioned into coaching, eager to share her love for fitness and help others unlock their own potential. For her, the most rewarding aspect of coaching is guiding individuals to challenge themselves and discover just how strong they can be.

Outside of the gym, Amy has been happily married for nearly 38 years and is the proud mother of three adult children. As an empty nester, she enjoys spending time with her husband and their Goldendoodle, Ziggy, whether it's on walks or hiking in the mountains. Amy and her husband are currently working on completing the nine “lesser peaks” of the Adirondacks, embracing the challenge of the beautiful, yet rugged terrain.
