Previous to this I was the Club Manager, Insurance Coordinator and personal trainer at two Snap Fitness clubs in Bismarck. I am newer to the fitness industry but find myself loving it more and more each day. I look forward to learning new things and find myself getting excited to further my education. I got into the industry after losing nearly 80 lbs in a 3 year time span. My mother was diagnosed with diabetes and after realizing that all of my uncles as well as grandmother had/have diabetes I knew I needed to kick it into high gear to prevent this from happening to me. Once I realized how much better I felt, and how many medications I was able to stop taking for many different medical reasons I knew I wanted to start helping others feel the same way. The two quotes below are two I live by: "You can be sore tomorrow or you can be sorry tomorrow - you choose!" - unknown "It doesn't matter what you did yesterday or what you could do tomorrow. It is all about the choices you make today." - Bob Harper less

I have not personally worked with Thea (although I am hoping to check out one of her Bootcamp classes when I'm in the Bismarck area), however I have come to know her through a childhood friend of mine who has had amazing results working with her. I have bounced ideas off of Thea and seen some of the workout plans she has created and they are incredibly well balanced and easily adaptable to a variety of fitness levels. I would highly recommend Thea as a trainer if you're looking to make a lifestyle change. She has a fresh perspective and a lot of creative ideas to make fitness workable for all people. :)

Thea is an awesome trainer! Thea is very creative with her workouts and offers a lot of variety to our sessions. She is very considerate of our age and always checks with us before workouts, to make sure nothing is hurting. Have been with Thea since January 4, 2012, and she has not miss one training session. Recommend Thea Very Highly.

I truly enjoy Thea as a trainer. Our workouts are always challenging, but Thea is very considerate of limitations we have and easily adapts to our needs. Every workout is different so it doesn't get boring. I leave every session feeling like I have had a great workout!
