About Me - Sara Sheets
Sara recently moved to New Zealand from the United States. She holds a Masters in Exercise Science and a Bachelors in Biomechanics/Exercise Physiology. She has also traveled to multiple regions of the United States to receive various group fitness certifications.
Sara has experience training with many diverse populations ranging from young college students, to sedentary adults, to those with disabilities. Sara believes that her purpose in life is to create life changing experiences for others through exercise. She knows she can help anyone achieve their fitness goals. She has watched many of her clients transform their bodies. She had many of her clients tell her how much their quality of life has increased since engaging in exercise. She has helped many of her clients come off their prescriptions for health related medications; including medications for Type II Diabetes. She feels many of these miracles could not have been possible without her support and encouragement.
Sara feels that her relationships with her clients set her apart from many other fitness professionals in the field. She takes a personal interest in each person she has the opportunity to work with. She cares about the lives of her clients both inside and outside of the gym.
Her goal is to not to just make money, or just to increase one’s adherence to an exercise program; but to increase one’s overall quality of life and well-being. Her focus is on the impact and the difference she can make in an individual’s life.
