Client Testimonials
Kelleigh is the first trainer to make me feel like a superior athlete. Her methods are both sports-specific or for anyone looking to improve themselves. What makes Kelleigh so different is that she takes the whole lifestyle into account, carefully crafting a plan that fits the individual and what is going on in their lives. Thank you Kelleigh for not only changing the way I treat my body but also helping me maintain it too!

Leading up to the 2019 world championships, I worked with Kelleigh to build up my endurance, strength, and speed. As a result, I walked in feeling the fittest I’ve ever been. In my opinion, that extra preparedness was one of the main factors to my success and really gave me the ability to go that extra mile for the win

Kelleigh’s training greatly improved my fencing. I tried researching and working out on my own, but it's not nearly as effective as the professional and directed instruction from Kelleigh. After a month of training, my strength and endurance significantly improved and I barely felt tired even in the later rounds of competitions. When I injured my knee from overuse, Kelleigh taught me several stretches and workouts that fixed my knee pain and strengthened my muscles in a balanced way that prevented future injury. Lionethik is the key to boosting fencing to the next level.

I’ve been working with Kelleigh for 4 months now. She creates amazing weekly workout plans that are engaging and approachable, challenge my limits, and are focused to my goals. As a fellow fencer, she understands the fluctuations of seasonal performance in elite athletes better than other strength coaches I’ve had. Kelleigh wants to discuss and adjust to how I’m feeling in the near term, keeping in mind my long term goals and needs. And, once gyms closed due to Covid-19, Kelleigh completely redesigned my workout plan to keep me moving in a meaningful and enjoyable way.

I cannot thank Kelleigh enough for guidance in physical training. At
the senior level physical fitness is key and because of Kelleigh’s
help I’ve been able compete with the best in the world. Her focus on
functional training has taught me what it means to be athletic and
kept me strong while recovering from injury. Her workouts always keep
things new and interesting. Most of all though, her support keeps me
motivated and drives me to be a better athlete.
