I decided to attend WellSpring and so set out on a new adventure to learn how to help others enjoy the same benefits of exercise that I have experienced. After graduating with CPT and CEX (Corrective Exercise) credentials in December of 2010 I started my own business, HEAL Fitness, LLC and have been enjoying the journey ever since.” - Teri Schrader, Personal Trainer & Corrective Exercise Specialist Graduate The “Total Fitness Coaching Model” taught in this program gives you the skills to incorporate fitness training, nutrition counseling and lifestyle coaching into a complete package for your clients and offer services that other trainers simply aren’t equipped to deliver.
