JADE HARRIS

My name is Jade. I grew up in small town Iowa as a competative gymnast. After injuries I was forced to retire from the sport I love. Going from working out 20+ hours a week to being off and on crutches and having no clue how to eat for a non-competative high schooler, I ended up gaining weight and became very uncomfortable with my body. I found working out as not only a stress reliever and a solution to my body image issues, but a hobby I fell in love with when I was no longer able to compete in sports. I decided to go to continue my education after high school to study Kinesiology Exercise Science and Entrepreneurial Studies at Iowa State University. While studying I taught group fitness classes (kick boxing, pilates, cardio drill, total body conditioning, and aqua fitness), coached gymnastics, and started working online as a health and wellness coach. Upon graduation I recieved my CPT through NASM and started working as a personal trainer at Lifetime. After switching gears I found myself teaching group fitness again, coaching high school strength and conditioning programs, and training clients 1:1 and online. I eventually started Faithfully Fit with Jade LLC where I help women create a lifestyle of healthy habits and mobility to improve quality of life through self love and faith. I now train clients online and in person, as well as manage and coach at Orangetheory Fitness. I love traveling and I hope my next chapter of life will bring my love for travel and helping individuals with health and fitness together.
