Building confidence and discipline through strength training and functional training

About Kayla Starker
M.S. Kinesiology & Sports Performance, Minor in Sports Nutrition, Certified Strength & Conditioning, Coach, ATG I Coach, 200hr-Yoga

My love for strength training began during my time as a basketball and track and field athlete. The hours spent on the court, in the gym, and on the track instilled a deep passion for movement and personal growth that now translates into my career as a trainer. I specialize in designing personalized training programs that prioritize strength, sports-specific movement, mobility, and holistic wellness. My training approach is centered on mindful movement to enhance physical strength while promoting functional mobility, greater openness, and fostering overall well-being.

As a queer woman of color, navigating spaces hasn't always been easy. Through strength training, I discovered a source of empowerment that transcends the gym, boosting my confidence through life’s challenges. My mission is to guide you towards feeling empowered and owning your space with strength and confidence.

I am dedicated to establishing an inclusive and welcoming environment where everyone is seen, heard, and valued at all levels of their fitness journey. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or new to fitness, I will tailor a program to your unique needs, helping you establish a strong foundation and achieve your specific goals.
