Who We Are
Knowledgeable Training Expertise
Vanessa Lynn Edwards
Founder/Coach
FMS Certified
9 Years of hands on coaching experience and 16 years of personal experience with movement and healthy habits.
I am passionate about helping individuals feel strong, learn how to move safe, and enjoy their body.
I truly love to exercise. It is my medicine.
I enjoy all forms of movement however my true love in the gym is the kettlebell. I was trained to use the kettlebell through a company called www.strongfirst.com. I was certified by them and built a lifelong love and respect for the kettlebell during my time with StrongFirst. The kettlebell is an essential tool I use to coach my clients but it's not the only tool in my tool box. I am knowledgeable in a wide variety of equipment outside of the kettlebell, Barbells/Dumbbells/Body Weight Training/Bands.
I design my programs based on my clients needs and goals.
Your Success is My Goal
I understand that adapting new fitness habits is difficult and often times feels uncomfortable at first. I understand and I too try to try my healthy habits every day. I strongly believe that if you practice healthy habits daily, you will be able to reach your goals and maintain your results.
If you are looking for coaching and accountability to build new habits that will help you feel better I am ready to help.
I am here to help inform you and equip you with skills to find freedom in understanding what you truly want to achieve and what you are ready to put action to in order to see that changes you are looking for. Sustainable changes.
My Mission
Create an environment that is inclusive, safe, and fun for all! To build a community that feels confident, strong, skillful, and capable of doing fun things in and outside of the gym.
My Goal
To focus on quality over quantity. To connect my clients with movement that they love doing.
I am a facilitator of health & wellness practices.
I work hard to empower and encourage each other everyday to move well and to move often.
I offer a wide variety of services to help you reach your goals whether that is with a private one on one coaching session, semi-private group training, or online coaching. .

A cold plunge, also known as cold water immersion or cold therapy, involves immersing yourself in cold water, typically between 50-59°F (10-15°C), for a short period, usually 2-3 minutes. This practice is gaining popularity due to its potential health benefits, which include:
Reduced Muscle Soreness and Inflammation: Cold water immersion constricts blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the immersed area and potentially minimizing inflammation and muscle soreness.
Improved Circulation: The initial constriction of blood vessels is followed by a rebound vasodilation, increasing blood flow to the immersed area and potentially improving overall circulation.
Stress Reduction and Mood Enhancement: Cold water immersion triggers the release of endorphins, which have mood-boosting and stress-reducing effects.
Enhanced Mental Clarity and Focus: Some individuals report experiencing increased mental clarity and focus following a cold plunge.
Potential Immune System Boost: While more research is needed, some studies suggest that cold water immersion may enhance immune system function.
