Jennifer Landreth

Jennifer moved to Wellsville, KS in 2004 and tried Yoga for the first time when Hourglass Fitness owner Lorrie Glass Coffman was teaching in the evenings at the elementary school.  She followed her to her space above Smokey’s Restaurant and then to her studio on Main Street.

Jennifer grew-up being the “skinny kid” and was not involved in sports but started to struggle with excess weight in her late 30’s.  Having to learn for the first time how to eat healthy and workout to increase metabolism and build muscle, Jennifer learned a lot from Lorrie and others that she was anxious to share with others.  “I have a special place in my heart for women who are struggling because it affects our self-esteem and our sense of ourselves.  Our society gives us so many conflicting messages and information.” 

Jennifer believes we need to find what kind of workout we enjoy so that we can stick to it.  Running and yoga are her favorite, but she likes to try new things as well like a spin class or Pilates and also weight training.  She completed her first 5K at the age of 44 and would like to complete a half-marathon next year.   She become a certified trainer in June of 2016.

“We need to be healthy at every age so we can take care of our families and teach them healthy habits to pass along to the next generation.”
