Chelsea Snyder
Co-Owner & Trainer
I’m Chelsea Snyder and I am a health and fitness enthusiast. I played volleyball from the age of 12, traveling nationally to compete with my Junior Olympic Team, winning multiple tournaments on our journey; as well as earning The Washington Posts First team and MVP Player of The Year. I continued my volleyball career into college, with a full scholarship for all four years, to play Division 1A volleyball at Eastern Kentucky University. After college I worked for USA Volleyball at the Olympic Training Center (OTC) in Colorado Springs, Colorado, working under the Director of Sports Development. After my time at the OTC, I then became the First Assistant Volleyball Coach at The University of Rhode Island and also coached 18, 16- and 12-years old on Junior Olympic girls teams. In each of these positions I acquired extensive experience in strength, conditioning, health and wellness. I look forward to the opportunity of inspiring others to improve their own quality of life and health, as well as working towards their personal goals for long term lifestyle changes. Chelsea is an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer.
Melissa Keith
Co-Owner & Trainer
Hi! I’m Melissa Keith and my passion to help others has lead me to the fitness arena. I have combined my Bachelors of Science in Athletic Training and Masters of Education in Special Education to lead personalized, innovative, and challenging small group workout sessions. This passion for helping others achieve fitness goals stemmed from my own journey to a healthier lifestyle. As busy mom of three, my own personal health slipped down in priority as I focused on my family. I realized that in order to be the best mama and wife I needed to be in optimal health, but this was not easy. Success only came when I surrounded myself with an amazing tribe for accountability, community, and fun! My enthusiasm to help others lead me to begin training others in the same small group setting. Melissa is an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer.
