Katie Skapyak

Hi, I'm Katie, a 39-year-old mom of two living in the picturesque state of Minnesota. While my life is filled with the wonderful chaos of raising my two amazing children, and running my own marketing business, I've also found my passion in helping others achieve their fitness goals as a part-time fitness instructor at Life Time.

My journey into the world of fitness instruction began as a personal quest for a healthier lifestyle. I was very athletic growing up, but after having my children, I realized the importance of staying active and maintaining a strong, healthy body not only for myself but also as a role model for my kids. This realization inspired me to take my passion for fitness to the next level and share it with others.

What I love most about being a fitness instructor is the opportunity to empower individuals on their fitness journeys. Whether it's guiding someone through their first-ever group fitness class, helping a member reach a weight loss milestone, or simply being there to motivate and encourage, it's incredibly rewarding to witness the positive transformations in people's lives.

I believe that fitness should be fun, inclusive, and adaptable to individual needs, and I strive to create a welcoming environment where everyone feels comfortable and supported on their path to a healthier lifestyle.

As a mom, I understand the challenges of balancing family life, work, and personal health. It's my goal to inspire others, especially fellow parents, to prioritize their well-being and show them that it's possible to lead a fulfilling, active life while raising a family. Every day, I wake up excited to share my passion for fitness and help others discover the joy of a healthier, happier life.
