Hi, I’m Lynne, a wife, proud mom of twins, fur mama, Registered Nurse, Personal Trainer, and lifelong advocate for health and wellness.

As a Registered Nurse since 2009, I’ve seen firsthand how strength, mobility, and physical function impact health, independence, and quality of life. That experience, combined with my own fitness journey, inspired me to become a personal trainer.

Like many people, I was once intimidated by the gym. With the guidance of an incredible mentor, I discovered how life-changing strength training could be, not only physically, but mentally and emotionally. That transformation sparked my passion for helping others become stronger, healthier, and more confident.

A few years ago, I took another step outside my comfort zone and signed up for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Pure Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. What began as a personal challenge quickly became another passion. Through the sport, I had the privilege of training under Professor Catherine Mitria. Three years later, our shared passion for fitness, health, and helping others led us to partner together in opening SALT Performance Studio.

At SALT Performance Studio, we’ve created a welcoming space where people can grow stronger together and feel supported every step of the way.

My goal is to create a supportive environment where people of all fitness levels can build strength, improve performance, and develop lifelong healthy habits. Whether you’re just starting your journey or striving to reach the next level, I’m committed to helping you achieve your goals.

Outside of coaching and healthcare, I enjoy spending time with my family and continuing to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Pure Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I believe fitness is about more than looking better. It’s about living better, moving better, building confidence, and being strong enough to enjoy every stage of life.

I look forward to welcoming you to the SALT family and helping you become the strongest version of yourself.
