Kristen Hebenton

My name is Kristen Hebenton, and I have been passionate about fitness my entire life. While I still carry that passion, my philosophy has changed over the years and I now describe myself as more "Smart' than I am "Competitive" when it comes to how I train and train others. I approach fitness as a way to improve my performance in the Sport of Life. This is something I hope to pass along to my 2 children, and something I bring to every class and session I teach. I have several certifications in the industry, but what makes me who I am is the energy and charisma I bring to an experience. I am passionate about helping people be better, healthier versions of themselves. I believe when we workout we become better wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters etc.

I have had the opportunity to work at one of the most motivating places in the area of Sports and Fitness, and that is NIKE World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. I am continually inspired by my surroundings as well as co workers. We truly believe that "Just Do It" is a call to action. It's what we do, it's who we are and we are better for it. I have been exposed to the most cutting edge training principles and programs on the market by the top people in the industry.  I bring  sense of athleticism into my delivery. At NIKE we say "If you have a body, you are an Athlete"

In my tenure as a Fitness Professional, I have also been a Developer and Presenter on an International level. I've travelled to the UK and worked with FitPro in certification programs offered by MOSSA. I love that I have fitness friends and colleagues all over this country and others.

I have 2 children who are my inspriation and perspiration. Being a healthy role model to them is one of my top priorities.
