My life-long goal is to live a healthy lifestyle and influence as many people as I can along the way. To fight genetic obesity, I decided many years ago to get in the gym, eat clean, and train hard. I have tried ALL the “diets” and the fads in the gym – including figure competing. (To keep myself engaged, I always needed “extremes”.) In the midst of this, in August of 2013, I was “lured” into a free demo at Kaia FIT Walnut Creek. I really DIDN’T want to go…but did anyway. Within 10 minutes, I had my tail handed to me – this was an awesome workout! It was different than anything I had ever done in the past. And I had ESPECIALLY never group trained with women! I was so excited to be challenged, but the part that captured me most was the LOVE these women were giving; the encouragement and support! Honestly, I had NEVER experienced that before – ESPECIALLY in a gym! Needless to say, I was hooked! Four weeks into Kaia, I felt like I had the best Coaches in town, and was introduced to Kaia FIT co-founder, Nikki Warren. I watched her love shine through for each person as she came alongside them during their workout. I knew at that moment, I wanted to touch as many women’s lives as I could! I became a franchisee and was gifted the ability to purchase the Walnut Creek location – the place I first fell in love with Kaia. I pray that I can touch others the way Kaia has touched me! Certifications: Kaia FIT certified, Kaia Flow certified, TRX certified, CPR certified, and Ace certified

I am Coach Gina and I am honored to be a part of this dynamic team here at Kaia FIT Walnut Creek. I grew up in majestic Utah enjoying the outdoors — skiing, rock climbing, golfing, hiking, ice skating and playing soccer. I love pushing the limits of endurance and have competed in sprint, Olympic and half iron-man distance triathlons, as well as many road and trail running events. Being a part of the over 40 mom’s “club” and having faced my own physical setbacks, I really understand the challenges that feel like road blocks to getting in shape and staying fit. My goal is to encourage, inspire and support every woman who is ready to make the commitment to improving their health and fitness. I truly believe in the term “progress, not perfection”, and here at Kaia FIT, we are on this journey together.

I am Jamie, former participant in all things unhealthy and unproductive. I was introduced to Kaia in January 2014, and reluctantly committed to what I thought was going to be a “six week exercise program”. Within the first couple of weeks, a very profound shift occurred in the only way I was used to thinking and behaving. The momentum was set, and I started to witness changes. As the weeks continued, my intentions developed more purpose and my commitment grew stronger. After experiencing a total transformation in body and mind, my desire to share this with others has also grown. The only thing more exciting for me than having someone experience Kaia for the first time is to actually coach them during the process. I came from a very different place, and know first hand that ANYONE can do it. Kaia is not just a phase, it’s a way of life…..and I can’t wait to share this part of your life with you!

I began my Kaia journey in April 2013 when the Walnut Creek location launched and immediately fell in love with the program! I grew up in the Bay Area and always remained active in organized sports as a child. I enjoyed playing basketball, softball and participated in Martial Arts where I achieved a brown/black belt. Kaia FIT now pushes me to surpass limits that I could not reach on my own! I contribute each Kaia girl’s success to the encouragement & inspiration from our program. There’s an overwhelming feeling of camaraderie & energy that leaves you with a sense of empowerment after every class. As a Kaia girl & now coach, it has been a rewarding experience to watch women stay committed, achieve their goals and transform their lives. My certifications include: Kaia FIT Certificate, TRX certificate, CPR/First Aid and I am currently pursuing my personal training certificate through the National Council for Certified Personal Trainers. When I am not at the Kaia gym, you can find me getting active with yoga, running and snowboarding in the winter!

I’ve been active off and on throughout my life, but never really found anything that I was passionate enough about to stick with for more than a few months at a time. After I witnessed the mental and physical transformation that one of my close friends achieved through Kaia, I decided to try a demo day. Shortly into my firs Core session, Kaia became my passion. The workouts are amazing, but what really kept me going back is the love and support from the other Kaia girls. Imagine a room full of women that support EACH OTHER! Kaia is part of my family. It’s where I belong. Being a Kaia Koach is a tremendous gift. Certifications: Kaia FIT certified, CPR certified, currently pursuing NCCPT certification
