Amie - owner and fitness/wellness coach
Hi, I’m Amie — a certified personal trainer, wellness coach, and nutrition coach with a passion for helping women build strength, confidence, and sustainable health.
A few years ago, my own body forced me to slow down. I was navigating grief from losing my brother, a divorce, autoimmune challenges, overwhelming nervous system dysregulation, and the pressure to push through exhaustion. Through intentional movement, wellness practices, mental health support, and somatic therapy, I rebuilt my relationship with my body. I learned how to train in a way that supported healing rather than depletion.
That experience shaped everything I do. What I learned during those years improved my wellness practices and how I approach working with clients.
I founded Ascend Training to create a fitness & wellness space focused on education, compassion, and long-term wellbeing. My coaching emphasizes mobility, strength, mind-to-muscle-connection, proper movement mechanics, and nervous-system-aware training so women can feel capable in their bodies without extremes, injury or burnout.
This website is an extension of that philosophy. Here, you’ll find thoughtfully designed training programs, practical wellness guidance, and insights into building a balanced, resilient lifestyle, whether you’re training at home, in the gym, or on the go.
You don’t need perfection or rigid rules to reach your goals. You need clarity, consistency, and support that adapts to real life and individual need. I’m here to help you move better, feel stronger, and live with more ease and confidence.
