I've taught a variety of class formats in my 12+ years leading group exercise classes; my favorite formats include ZUMBA®, strength conditioning, indoor cycling, fitness yoga, & bootcamp. I enjoy the diversity of teaching different formats & populations in both group fitness & personal training sessions. I'm an avid runner with a special interest in full marathons and sprint triathlons, and can often be seen hitting local roads & trails for an early morning run. I enjoy an energetic lifestyle which includes travel, dancing, strength training, skiing, boating, and hiking. My favorite leisure activity is family time with my husband and sons. Active in my community & currently a volunteer coach of a kids' running group, I hope to help families create healthy lifetime habits which result in better health & improved quality of life. 'The community I build within my classes/sessions is not typically experienced in 'traditional gym classes' - this is my passion! It's truly rewarding to train clients & see them progress to their highest potential – whether that’s feeling successful in fitness classes, improving functional range of motion, training for an event, or successful weight loss/health maintenance. Exercise CAN BE FUN - try a class or session - you'll leave feeling refreshed, renewed, and happy! Nichole's favorite workout mantra: "Better Health, Better Life!" less

The University of Washington Bothell Recreation and Wellness Program contracted with Northshore Fitness to provide fitness instruction to our students since March of 2009. Nichole Sargent has offered a variety of fitness programs and participated in many other events in the interest of promoting health and wellness at UW Bothell.

Northshore Fitness has offered a variety of class formats including Boot Camp, Core Conditioning 101, Cardio Conditioning 101, Outdoor Fitness, and Zumba. Nichole’s classes were fun, tailored for the various fitness levels of those attending, and were excellent workouts.

Students love Nichole’s Zumba class and one student recently wrote: “The Zumba instructor [Nichole] that has been teaching the Zumba class on Wednesdays is AWESOME. It is hard to find a qualified and charismatic teacher for Zumba and she is both. We should definitely hire her back for Fall quarter.”

Throughout my experience with Northshore Fitness, I have been most pleased with Nichole’s desire to offer true fitness solutions for students at this campus. Nichole was able to adapt class formats and schedules of classes to best accommodate the needs of UW Bothell students.

I have taken classes by Nichole for several years. She always brings a positive energy level and terrific enthusiasm as well as the knowledge an instructor should possess in order to avoid injury while exercising!

Thanks to you (Nichole) and the staff at Northshore Fitness, I really enjoyed your Boot Camp program. It worked well for me because I don’t like always doing the same thing every time. The way you mix up the workouts make it fun and it goes by fast. I appreciate your help in finding a low impact way for me to help my back. I’m looking forward to this fall. I’m even eating a little healthier………sometimes!!

"After taking a couple classes with Nichole her last name says it all SARGENT! She is an intense ball of energy that will get you moving up, down, sideways, and across the room. I especially love the way that she incorporates resistance bands in a variety of workouts. She is a true soldier, waking up early in the day to motivate people to start their days with a fresh outlook. I highly recommend taking one of the many classes Nichole teaches, because you will get a good work out!"

"Throughout my experience with Northshore Fitness, I have been most pleased with their desire to offer true fitness solutions for students at this campus. They were able to adapt class formats and schedules of classes to best accomodate the needs of UW Bothell students. For this reason I can understand why I've often had students ask me when Northshore Fitness will be teaching another class."

"Nichole is knowledgeable in her field. She is professional, flexible, an excellent communicator, reliable (even during the recent snow event), positive, an excellent teacher, pleasant, fun, and provides a quality program for our employees. She varies the exercises to keep the interest of the class and offers more challenging exercises for those who are progressing quickly. Her knowledge in the field is wide. She is able to work with individuals who are training for events, exercise beginners, those wishing to achieve a higher level of fitness & individuals who are recovering from injuries (getting input from their physical therapists). Nichole has demonstrated a clear understanding of working with people of all ages. We highly recommend Nichole to you and/or your organization."

- Susan W., City of Bothell Wellness Committee Facilitator (& wellness class participant)
