About Me
Hi, I’m Ren (though you might also know me as Rachel or Rach)! I’m here to create a warm, welcoming space for anyone who has ever felt out of place in a traditional gym setting. I work closely with people who are new to the gym, seniors, those with larger bodies, women, and members of the queer community.
My training style is rooted in strength training and functional fitness, but my real focus is on meeting you where you are. I believe fitness should be a positive, empowering journey, and I’m dedicated to making sure you leave each session feeling stronger and more confident.
Many of my clients come to me after having challenging or traumatic fitness experiences in the past. One of my biggest goals is to turn those experiences around and help you build a positive, supportive relationship with exercise. Let’s work together to make your fitness journey something you look forward to and feel proud of. I’m excited to be a part of your path to strength and well-being!
testimonials
"I turned 75 this year and have been participating in Strength Training with Rach for over 2 years. It has paid off! My PRs recently include dead-lifting my weight (115 lbs.), and holding a plank for 6 minutes. I feel younger and am living a more active and interesting life. Amazing. You’re never too old!
My two secret weapons? Rach’s enthusiasm to motivate me, and consistency. Sessions with Rach are welcoming, varied and fun.
I encourage anyone to begin their own journey to strength with Rach.
PS—my daughters and I spent a couple weeks in Europe this past Spring. We walked everywhere!"

"Rach sees your potential, meets you where you're at, and gets you to believe in yourself so you're brave enough to push yourself one rep further."
- Sara
"Rach is such an incredible trainer that I now not only go to the gym regularly, but at 6am no less! They are the best cheerleader, always encouraging, and know exactly how to push you to keep pushing yourself. I’ve never been in better physical shape."
- Natalie
"Rach is truly so gifted at creating a warm, inclusive environment, and supporting folks in accessing the strength they need to meet their goals. They are incredibly knowledgeable about how to accommodate and explain things to meet each person where they are at. Working with them for the last year has really transformed my relationship to fitness after a lot of medical trauma, and it has been so cool to be a part of a community where we all get genuinely excited to see each other grow and do badass things. 10000% recommend"
