Certified Personal Trainer, ISSA // Women's Fitness Specialization, NASM // Jessica is a California native who moved to Fayetteville in 2015 with her family. She started climbing to conquer her fear of heights. Though the experience initially terrified her, she was hooked on the sport because it perfectly blended her love of fitness and adventure. During her first visit to Triangle Rock Club, she became a member because she knew this was more than just a gym: TRC is a unique community. She joined the staff as a substitute fitness instructor in November 2017. She was a natural fit, and she became a regularly-scheduled fitness instructor, teaching weekly strength classes and monthly specialty fitness clinics. Jessica is now our Lead Fitness Instructor, and she continues to share her passion for fitness and climbing.

Back in 2010 Sarah realized that wishing her physical goals into reality wasn't working out very well, so she decided to commit to the practice of food tracking and at-home workouts. That decision was one of the best she ever made. Since then, She dedicated herself to continuous learning, experimenting, and searching for new opportunities within the world of health and wellness. Sarah’s official training career began in 2014 with a Crossfit L1 certification hot off the presses. A year later she opened her first weightlifting gym in Kansas City, MO with an additional USAW Sport Coaching and Attitude Nation L1 certificate under her belt. But certificates don't equal experience and that's what Sarah valued most about her time in KC. The 3 years Sarah had in my gym were spent gaining experience and helping spread the love of movement, health, and knowledge to her clients and friends. Now that Sarah has come to Fayetteville, she gets to share that love and excitement for movement and health with the climbing community at TRC. Her goal as a trainer is to provide space and opportunity for you to feel comfortable trying your best. Sarah wants you to be strong, but more importantly, to feel capable.
