Our Personal Trainers
Anna Blessing
NASM Certified Personal Trainer
I have always been fascinated by health and wellness. I played hockey and golf as a kid and got into distance running in college. Fitness became even more important to me when my daughter was born. I wanted to set a healthy example for her but needed to change my own perspective to exercising to be strong not just physically, but mentally as well. I coach high school girls' golf and specialize in Golf Fitness. My training focuses on mobility and stability to help prevent injuries and improve range of motion while incorporating strength training movements we do in our daily lives. Nutrition Coaching works to establish a balance between working towards your goals and having flexibility to enjoy foods you love.
Anna's favorite quote is:
"Do it scared."
Anne Gilbertson

As a former elementary teacher, Anne's passion for education, health and fitness along with her enthusiasm to encourage others to engage in a healthier lifestyle, inspired her to become a personal trainer. She loves anything that is fitness orientated, especially running, biking and strength training. Anne enjoys expanding her knowledge of the health and fitness world and would love the opportunity to share it with you.

Josh Hensley
ISSA Certified Personal Trainer
Ever since I grabbed my first dumbbell in high school, I knew fitness was something I wanted to pursue as a career. When I'm not running after two toddlers, I like to get down to swinging unconventional equipment like kettlebells, steel maces, steel clubs and sandbags, as well as traditional weightlifting! What inspires me about Personal Training is helping others achieve their goals and stay motivated!
Josh's favorite quote is:
"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act but a habit."

Trevor Keske
NASM Certified Personal Trainer
I believe that fitness is about more than physical strength and appearance, it's about feeling capable, self-assured, and invigorated both during workouts and when facing life's challenges. Our bodies are incredible tools that can be refined and utilized to embrace all aspects of life. Our fitness journeys are an opportunity to recognize that setback are not failures, but rather steppingstones toward our future achievements. My goal is to help others recognize the value that fitness can provide in all aspects of life and to help guide them through their fitness journeys.
Trevor's favorite quote is:
"It is impossible to begin to learn that which one thinks one already knows."
