My name is Heather Katz. I’m a certified health coach, personal trainer, yoga instructor, teacher, a wife, and a mom of three. Health and wellness is something I’ve always been passionate about. As a former competitive runner and triathlete, I have always been focused on healthy eating and having a healthy lifestyle, and I was fortunate to have a good foundation for healthy living having been raised by a doctor and a nurse. As a competitive athlete, I learned just how important good eating habits are since my diet directly impacted my racing success. When I became a Mom, especially when I was pregnant with each of our children, my nutritional needs changed focus, as my new goal was to help our children to be as healthy as possible. As they grew, my knowledge about the best nutrition to support their health evolved alongside. Life is busy, especially with three kids, so we have had to find ways to fit a healthy lifestyle into our lives. Becoming a health coach & personal trainer have allowed me to refocus my goals, not only improving our family’s eating, exercise and lifestyle habits even more, but also reigniting my passion for educating others about healthy living and fitness. My love of and passion for leading a healthy life has led me to a career that is all about helping others to live healthier, more fulfilled lives. My health coach training is from the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute, and I have been practicing for over a year and a half, and my personal training certification is through the NAFC. I have been personal training for over six months. When working with clients, I combine my training with my own personal experiences as a lifelong athlete and Mom to guide you as we work together to reach your goals. As a coach and trainer, I am able to combine my passion with my love of teaching by motivating and empowering others about how to put themselves and their family first, making good health, fitness, balanced living and nutrition natural, simple and fun!
