Jason
Jason is an AFAA (Athletics and Fitness Association of America) certified personal trainer. Although he recently became certified, he has been lifting regularly for more than 20 years. He still remembers when he first started regularly going to the gym during his junior year at Lincoln-Way high school. He realizes how much more progress he could have made and injuries avoided by seeing a professional earlier on in life. Even in college when studying abroad in Japan he was able to find a gym to continue lifting. Going to the gym has always been an important part of his life and is a great way to release stress and frustrations. Jason understands that everyone is at a different stage of their fitness journey and the only one you can compare yourself to is your prior self. Everyone has different hurdles to overcome, be it a busy schedule or past injuries that limit your activities. With his positive attitude and fitness knowledge overcoming these hurdles to accomplish your goals will be paramount. |
Carrie
Carrie wears many hats including being a Registered Nurse, corporate workhorse, mother, friend, group fitness instructor, personal trainer, and co-founder of ProCoreFitness. Twelve years ago, Carrie took her very first group fitness class. It was Kasia’s Adrenaline Rush Kickbox. Carrie was scared to death and if you were there you would find Carrie hidden in the back row, in the back corner, struggling to breathe, and holding onto the wall because she was so overweight, completely out of shape, and whimpering. But with consistency and seeing results, she was soon in the front row encouraging others and became a positive force in the class. Group fitness eventually turned into a fun hobby and let’s be real, working out alone can get totally boring, everyone needs someone to keep them going. She knows there are no limits and while wearing many different hats is fun, lifting many different weights is more satisfying. |
Crystal
I am a mom of two awesome girls and I could not do what I do without my amazing and supportive husband. My love for health and fitness really kicked in when I became a mom. I am a Certified Personal Trainer through National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), Certified Group Instructor through Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA) and a Fitness Nutrition Specialist through NASM.
My fitness background includes volley ball, swimming, and running. While I enjoy running, I really LOVE lifting weights and high intensity workouts, but you will catch me at a yoga class too. My focus is on building strength, along with improving flexibility, endurance and technique to build a functional, effective workout. Along with exercise, I am extremely passionate about nutrition. I really love cooking and baking! I could talk food all day. Healthy cooking, to me, is fun, easy and adventurous. I want to combine my exercise and nutrition knowledge to help others create a holistic real-life program. I love working alongside others and helping them achieve whatever their fitness and/or health goals may be. |

She was thrilled that there is such an emphasis on strength training here and is excited to bring a new class to the mix.

Harthe
I am a certified Personal Trainer through the Athletics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA). I have loved sports and fitness since I was a child. I was always doing some type of physical activity; gymnastics, tap, softball, basketball. I loved being outside and playing hard. In Junior High and High School, I ran track and was a cheerleader. In my Junior year our cheerleading squad qualified to compete at UCA Nationals. It was then, that my love for strength training was born. Being a base, I really needed to increase my strength to compete at that level, so my coach incorporated weightlifting into my training regimen. I felt strong and that empowered me. I want everyone to know that feeling! I have always been fascinated with the human body, so I pursued a career in the medical field. I became a Radiographer and worked in the field for 15 years. I left the workforce to be with my 2 boys but continue to hold my license. Fast forward a few years, I decided to teach preschool; 2-year olds!!! During this time, I started going to ProCore and training with Kasia. Here is where everything changed! I loved how lifting made me feel. I loved what it did to my body. I have taken every fitness class there is, but lifting was what changed me the most. I found the stronger my muscles were, the easier cardio was! I had more energy than ever, and my mood was great! After working with Kasia for a few years, I realized that becoming a personal trainer was my dream job. So, I pursued personal training and recently received my certification through AFAA. I want to help you feel empowered and strong. I want you to be your healthiest self. Come and lift some heavy weights with me! |
