About Bekah

Hi! I'm so excited you're here.  It means that you have taken the first step in reaching your fitness goals.  First and foremost I am a wife to an amazing husband and mother of two very little ones.  I understand what it means to be busy!  I have worked full time with 2 under 2 and I am now stay and work at home mom, so I understand the struggle and the reward on both sides of the spectrum. 

I am a certified personal trainer and run coach as well as the former Regional Head Trainer at Orangetheory Fitness for the Charlotte Metro area.  I have over 10 years experience in the fitness industry having taught Spin, Core/Balance, Bootcamp, Contact/Cardio Kickboxing, Zumba, Orangetheory Fitness, and Strength Training.  I have also personal trained and taught group fitness at several corporate gyms including the Abercrombie Corporate Gym and American Signature/DSW Corporate Gym.  I feel blessed to have the amazing opportunity to motivate people to live their healthiest life.

 

My biggest passion is running.  The marathon is my favorite distance.  

Bekah is also honored to be an alumni run ambassador for lululemon-Columbus, where she motivated the community with distance running. She is also grateful to be able to incorporate her love for charity with her passion for running. She was a run coach for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation-Team Challenge Columbus, the head marathon coach for Team in Training Miami, a mentor for Team in Training Columbus and an athlete ambassador for the Eleonore Rocks Foundation.

 

She also had the amazing opportunity to be a presenter at Wanderlust Yoga Festival in California where she lead groups on challenging yet scenic trail runs and hikes.
