Amanda is a National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) certified personal trainer and VIDA Master Trainer/Personal Training Manager. Several years ago, Amanda rebuilt her own life and reclaimed her physical and mental health by using physical activity as a therapeutic resource. After experiencing her own transformation, she finished earning her Master’s Degree in International Affairs from the George Washington University in 2011, then decided to follow her heart and instead made a career out of changing people’s lives through fitness.

Through her fitness career, which expands over a decade, Amanda has worked with virtually every type of client ranging from 8 to 89 years of age, including clients with special needs. She believes that the gym can and should be for everyone, and that working out should be a joyful experience rooted in self-love. Depending on a client’s needs, Amanda brings a wide variety of specialties to her sessions including pre- and post-natal fitness, corrective exercise, senior fitness, weight loss, and more. Amanda is also a certified Pilates Teacher, Meditation Facilitator, certified TRX instructor, POUND master instructor, and Barre instructor.

When she’s not in the gym, Amanda enjoys meditating, running half marathons with her two sisters, watching alien documentaries, and hanging out with her rescue dog Gordon.
