Erika Hamacher
Coaching Style
Balanced in your own way! My goal is to help you reach those goals and learn how to maintain them in your own way. Throughout this journey I want to help you find your balance with exercise, nutrition, and life. We are all unique individuals and my idea of balance will most likely look a lot different than your idea of balance, and that is OK! With that being said this is not a quick fix. This process will take TIME and CONSISTENCY. So it is important that you stay patient and trust the process. I will be with you every step of the way to guide you through your journey. Learning how to juggle all the stresses of life will not always be easy. Somedays will be harder than others. Thank you for taking the leap of faith and allowing me to help you reach your health and fitness goals.

Erika's Story
Welcome, my name is Erika! Health and fitness has always been a big part of my life. I grew up on a ranch and you had to be strong and have good body mechanics to pick up hay bales and heavy sacks of feed.
I started playing competitive soccer at a young age and my passion for sports and fitness has been a priority ever since. After high school I went to Fort Hayes State University for my bachelor's degree in medical diagnostic imaging where I specialized in magnetic resonance imaging. During this time I kept active through running and lifting weights. I had to learn how to balance a hectic hospital life and my love for physical activity. In 2019 I ran my first full marathon 11 weeks pregnant. It was one of my greatest accomplishments. I am a Certified Personal Trainer through ACE, a Certified Nutrition Coach through NASM, a Silver Sneakers Instructor, a yoga instructor and an Indoor Cycling Instructor. I first fell in love with spin when I was training for my full marathon in 2018. I will be one of your biggest supporters and I look forward to working with you.
