About Paris

I’m a certified strength and conditioning coach with over 10 years of experience helping clients build strength, confidence, mobility, and a healthier relationship with their bodies. I am CFSC Mike Boyle certified, ACE Personal Training certified, NASM Group Fitness certified, and a Dr. John Rusin Pain-Free Performance Coach. My background gives me a strong foundation in athletic performance, strength training, injury prevention, mobility, form correction, body recomposition, bodybuilding, and pain-free movement.

I’ve trained clients from all walks of life, ranging in age from 5 to 85. I’ve worked with athletes, bodybuilders, moms, beginners, clients returning from injury, wheelchair users, clients with paralysis, and individuals navigating physical or mental health challenges. I truly believe there is no one I won’t give my full effort to — every client deserves to feel seen, supported, and capable.

I spent five years competing in bodybuilding shows myself, so I understand discipline, consistency, nutrition, body confidence, and the mental side of transformation on a personal level. I’m also currently continuing my education to bring a deeper mental and somatic approach into my coaching, with the goal of helping clients connect more intentionally with their bodies through movement, mindset, and somatic Pilates-style coaching.

A typical session with me is high-energy, detailed, compassionate, and patient. I care deeply about proper form, long-term progress, and helping clients move pain-free while still feeling challenged. Whether your goal is to lose weight, build muscle, improve athletic performance, gain confidence, move better, or simply feel stronger in your everyday life, I meet you where you are and help you move forward with purpose
