I AM EXCITED FOR ALL THINGS 2026!

FROM OPPORTUNITIES TO TEACH IN new STUDIO spaces, TO CREATING NEW LEADERSHIP TRAININGS FOR BOUTIQUE STUDIOS, FITNESS CLUBS AND BEYOND, BUILDING A FITGIRL COLLECTIVE TO CONTINUING ACADEMIC RESEARCH, THERE IS SO MUCH TO LOOK FORWARD TO IN THIS UPCOMING SEASON!

IN 2021, I STARTED a FITNESS & TRAINING COMPANY - TEACHING at HOME BARRE CLASSES, IN STUDIO BARRE CLASSES, VIRTUAL CLASSES, HEALTH COACHING AND CONTINUING ACADEMIC RESEARCH PROJECTS. I AM BUILDING ON THIS FOUNDATION BY COMBINING MY LEADERSHIP EXPERTISE WITH MY PASSION FOR WOMEN’S FITNESS. I AM EXPANDING MY SCOPE INTO LEADERSHIP TRAINING FOR FITNESS STUDIOS TO EQUIP BOUTIQUE AND CLUB OWNERS, MANAGERS AND TEAMS, WITH TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND TEAM BUILDING SKILLS. IF YOU ARE LOOKNG TO INVEST IN YOUR INSTRUCTOR TEAM, OR ONe-ON-ONE LEADERSHIP EQUIPPING , I WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH YOUR STUDIO.

IN ADDITION TO BARRE AND PILATES CERTIFICATIONS & TRAININGS, I COMPLETED A BACHELORS OF MUSIC IN MUSIC COMPOSITION, A MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, AND A DOCTORATE IN LEARNING & LEADERSHIP WITH A FOCUS ON TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN THE AMERICAN ORCHESTRA. I HAVE DIRECTED THE UNITED STATES OPERATIONS FOR THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF THE ARTS, HAD AN EXTENSIVE CAREER IN THE AMERICAN ORCHESTRA FIELD, AND TAUGHT UNIVERSITY COURSES IN NONPROFIT MANAGEMENT.

A DESIRE TO HAVE A HEALTHY AND STRONG BODY, TO LIVE A JOYFUL AND ACTIVE LIFE WITH MY AMAZING HUSBAND AND FAMILY, AND TO BE IN COMMUNITY WITH LIKE-MINDED WOMEN, ALL INSPIRE MY CONTINUED WORK IN THE FITNESS AND LEADERSHIP FIELDS.

I HOPE TO SEE YOU AT A LEADERSHIP TRAINING, A BARRE OR PILATES CLASS, OR A FITGIRL COLLECTIVE GATHERING SOON!

Peace, love & Lots of Jesus,

Katie Engels
