About Felicia

My name is Felicia, and I am an ACE-certified personal trainer. I develop and lead women with customized, results-focused, and science-based strength and cardio training programs that help them achieve their individual goals. A work-out with me is fun, never-boring, challenging, and focused on helping you achieve YOUR goals.  As a believer in Christ, I offer love, compassion, and acceptance to all.


Here is the process: We have a brief video or phone chat regarding your background, lifestyle, goals, and more. Next, I conduct an individual screening session with you focused on identifying muscle imbalances, faulty movement patterns, and key baseline measures. This ensures that we address potential issues that may hamper your progress BEFORE adding significant resistance to your body.


I design a customized fitness program for you and coach you through each session, modifying as necessary.


Please note that I conduct a detailed fitness, movement, and cardio assessment for you with a written report that informs my customized fitness programming for you.  This helps ensure that we progress safely and effectively in our workout sessions.  This is part of my "client inboarding" and the associated fee is $170. 


Please also note a travel surcharge of $10 or more may apply to in-home or alternate and gym training locations.


Please reach out - I look forward to helping you achieve your fitness goals!

I was long overdue getting back in the gym. Felicia spent the time to first evaluate my fitness level and areas where I needed to strengthen. She built a workout plan that was specifically designed for me. As an added plus to feeling stronger and looking tighter, my stiff upper "computer" backache is no longer. Felicia is a professional and keeps me challenged to see results, yet making sure that my form and the weights used are right.

Felicia is awesome! She has great availability and makes it easy for you to book appointments through her online scheduling system. She takes her time getting to know you and your body and creates a very doable strength training plan. She also has great flexibility with her meeting location, your gym, her gym, she’ll make it work and show you exactly what to do. 10/10 would recommend her!

Scarlett N.

Felicia is awesome! I was new to strength training and she taught me proper form and various techniques to get the most out of my workouts. She takes the time to customize your workout plans and is very receptive to feedback if you don’t like something or want to tweak your plan. She’s great at communicating and truly wants to see you grow and progress throughout your fitness journey. No matter what level you’re starting out on, she’s a great fit and will help you achieve your goals!

Brianna S.

Working with Felicia has been an incredibly uplifting experience. As a trainer she works with you to create a plan that both meets you where you are at and gets you moving towards your goals. She is funny and kind, and offers so much more than insights on your physical fitness. Her own holistic view of health has created a relationship where we discuss not only my training, but my diet, sleeping, and stress levels. I always look forward to my sessions with her. Could not recommend her enough!

Felicia is the best! Could not have asked for a better trainer. Tough but compassionate and always keeps it fun.

Ann C.

Felicia is very open and inviting- which was such a relief when looking for my first trainer. She made it very easy to begin and is so conscious about where you are starting out so that you aren’t overwhelmed or intimidated. She tailors things to your needs and wants, and always has the sunniest and most positive demeanor at every workout.

Felecia’s awesome. I love her encouragement. She’s been awesome. I can already tell a difference and she’s only been with me for about a month. 8 sessions total.
