"You do what you know, when you know better, you do better." --- Maya Angelou

Jody Peterson started her career as a personal trainer after the birth of her second child nine years ago. A former athlete, she turned to training in order to successfully return to her pre-pregnancy weight. Now she inspires others to reach their own fitness goals.

“I love being able to help people empower themselves,” she says. “Once you start getting in shape, it affects so many aspects of your life in a positive way.”

Getting new certifications is a priority for Jody, and just last month she completed a certificate in Holistic Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching.

“Education doesn’t get old for me. The more I learn, the better tools I have to draw from, and the more fun I have training clients,” she explains.

Although Jody recognizes the importance of keeping up within a constantly changing industry, she stresses taking a common sense view of health.

“Eat right, get enough sleep, and monitor your stress levels. What you do inside the gym for a few hours a week is only one part of your total well-being.”



Testimonial from Mike Rumph, Washington Redskins Defensive Back: "Through my 3 months of training with Miss Peterson, I was introduced to new and innovative training that some pro athletes don't even know exist. I was given different training options to cater to my specific sport, professional football.  My weight went from 207 to 196 and my body fat dropped from 13% to 6%. When I went back to my team to train my coaches couldn't believe how strong and lean I had become in such a short time." 

Testimonial from Dr. Gary Arita: "January 4th, 2006 I looked in the mirror and didn't like what I saw or what my scale said. So I bought a new one, some fancy gizmo known for dead on accuracy and it weighed me 4 pounds heavier than my original one. With a 34 inch waist, weight of 172, and a  bum right knee, it was time for action. I made a New Year's Resolution:  I'm going to get back into shape.  With so had so many painful areas; bad knee, bad shoulder, bad ankles, I decided to work with a personal trainer.  Jody came highly recommended.  Together we worked on my diet and exercise. Using functional exercises I was able to exercise without pain.  They made sure I was in proper alignment, and also changed the way I walk. The pain just went away.  I was amazed with her coaching and proper technique, my pain just vanished. After 2 months I weighed 158 pounds, my waist is 31 inches, and I don't wear a brace on my right knee anymore. EVERYONE has noticed.  I can't say enough about the effect Jody has made in my life. Thanks to her I am in better shape than ever before."
