I love the outdoor workout you gave me. It is my favorite weight routine ever!
Katrina has helped me immensely over the years from my weight loss journey to strengthening and everything in between. She has been such a wonderful support as I navigate and build my physical health. I have joined her bootcamp classes as well as received one-on-one personal training from her.
When I started working with Katrina, I was not very strong and dealing with significant muscle tightness. I was worried going into my first bootcamp with her that I would fall behind or blend in with little help, or worse, leave in pain from pushing too hard. After working with Katrina, it is apparent that her goal is not to get you to lift heavy or push hard for the sake of checking a box. Instead, she takes a full body approach. She begins with understanding how your body moves and takes note of muscle weakness and overcompensation. She then creates a plan to help you overcome these issues while building strength, confidence while minimizing pain and tightness. It is apparent that this is an important part of Katrina’s fitness training, so you can rest assured that even in a group exercise setting you will get the same focused care. You will never feel lost or unimportant when working with Kat!
Katrina out does any other personal trainer I’ve ever worked with because of her passion and extensive knowledge of how the body is interconnected. She has helped to remedy my muscle tightness and given me a better understanding of how to work on strengthening even when running errands or sitting for long periods of time. Working with Katrina has shaped my everyday life, and my perspective on how I care for my body. I’ve made it out of the weight loss stage and into the strengthening stage. I’m so grateful to have had Katrina by my side as my health coach throughout the process all these years!
I met Katrina through a golf program at Seattle athletic club. I am an avid golfer and squash player. Ever since I started playing squash 6 years ago at age 40, I have struggled with back pain, which negatively affected my squash, golf, and life in general. You would think I would just quit playing squash, but I enjoy the workout and the game to much. Instead, I have seen chiropractors, massage therapists, acupuncturists as well as stretched, but the most effective thing I have done was to work with Katrina. In the beginning she gave me an assessment which identified my weaknesses and then she prescribed corrective exercises. She then gave me workouts that were increasingly challenging including TRX suspension training. After several months of working with Katrina I now enjoy golf pain free, I hit the ball farther, and my handicap has dropped three strokes from a 10 to a 7 (the lowest it has ever been). Squash still aggravates my body, but I now know how to manage it with targeted exercises, stretching and foam rolling such that I rarely have back pain anymore.
