Hi, Im Katie Garrison. I am a Les Mills GRIT coach and a YogaFit Worldwide yoga instructor. I love the high intensity that GRIT brings to challenge the body and mental toughness. I equally love the balance, flexibility, stability, and relaxation that yoga brings to the table. They're so different, but so needed! We need to be challenged and we need to learn to go with the flow! See you in class!

Hi, I'm Jennifer. I'm married with 6 kiddos. We moved to Livingston in 2013 from Albuquerque NM where I was born and raised. We are very involved with our church, love to go camping and travel and sometimes remodel our home together. Fitness was never a part of my life until a friend dragged me to the Sweat Shop where I very quickly discovered my deep passion for group fitness. With lots of support I am certified as a Les Mills Advanced BodyCombat Instructor. I love watching people challenge themselves, support each other and push themselves to new levels they didn't know they could reach, all while having a BLAST!

Claire is a certified Les Mills Body Combat and BodyPump Instructor. She loves helping others become stronger and healthier. "I like to have goals. When we set a goal for ourselves and then reach that goal there is a feeling of accomplishment. Seeing my participants meet their goals continues to drive me as well. They inspire me!
Jeanette
"I am a certified Les Mills Trip (Cycling) instructor and Les Mills BodyPump instructor. I began working out at the sweat shop at the age of 47. I was truly inspired, pushed and motivated by a couple instructors. I then became a certified instructor myself. At the age of 50, I am in the best physical shape of my life and my health has benefited greatly, along with my quality of life. I have been zip lining, rock climbing, hiking, snorkeling and doing other things i had only dreamed of doing before. My complete promise is to help others reach their own personal goal through inspiration, motivation, and fun to keep you coming back for more! it is so much more than a number on the scale- Its the way you FEEL!"
Jody Goodwin
In my 30's, I fell in love with my new lifestyle and decided to become a fitness instructor when I turned 40. it was the greatest birthday gift ever! As 50 is creeping up on me, I still love it, maybe even more. I am a certified Level 2 Spinning, Body Pump, TRX Suspension Training, and also teach High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). I have also taught a few Boot Camps throughout the community. My biggest reward being a fitness instructor is to be a part of helping others discover that they are actually capable of so much more than they ever realized, both physically and mentally.
Christane
Hey Y'all hey! My name is Christane. I am a Veteran's wife, a mother of 2, special needs advocate, baker of healthier treats, and fitness instructor at the Sweat Shop Gym. I am a true Livingston born and raised in this beautiful little town of ours. My hobbies include spending time with my family, crafting, baking, and all things nutrition and fitness!
I am licensed in many different fitness formats. I currently teach POUND, VIBE ride, and The Trip. My fitness journey started a little over 10 years ago when Postpartum depression and baby weight hit me. I was very intimidated by the gym and the fit people that went when I first started. I started to lose weight and feel beautiful again as well as fall in love with the like minded community at the gym. From there I became addicted to encouraging others to live their best, healthiest, happiest life and wanted to take the next step in helping others obtain their goals as well!
