Kennedy Church
Fitness has been my passion from an early age, driven by a love for movement and a desire to help others achieve their goals. With a background in competitive tennis and a decade of dance training, I developed a strong foundation in discipline, athleticism, and functional movement. This passion led me to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from Grace College, equipping me with the expertise to guide clients on their fitness journeys. Outside of training, I enjoy reading the Bible, playing pickleball with my boyfriend, spending time with loved ones, and unwinding with crime shows
Rachele Allen
Hi, I’m Rachele, I fell in love with the benefits of physical fitness in 2018. I received my personal training certification through ISSA in 2021. I also have certification through AEA for aquatics exercise. I’m deeply motivated by helping people reach their fitness goals but I absolutely love helping people do things they once thought impossible! Weight loss, circuit and strength training are areas where I apply myself with excitement.
Scott Pherson
Athletic Performance Professional. I have spent decades coaching strength training at various levels and bring numerous experiences to the table. I have coached youth athletes as young as 5 in performance and sport as well as clients that are retired, injured, post-physical therapy, and everything in between! Once an Athlete… ALWAYS an Athlete! Together let’s find a way to get better DAY BY DAY! I believe wholeheartedly in giving back. I have spent many hours over the years volunteering as a Youth Coach, an advisor to strength and conditioning at the high school level through the NHSCCA, and hosting a podcast for coaches, athletes, and parents. Most importantly I am a husband and father that wants the best for everyone in my life. I hope you will consider joining me on this adventure and know that you will be taken care of.
