Marie Merritt started Momentum in 2005 because she believed her clients, not only deserved, but would benefit from a completely positive environment. They need a trainer who is about helping them achieve their goals and helping them change their lifestyle. Training is a big commitment and each client deserves nothing but the best. 

"Being a trainer is not just about the routine. It's about providing support and motivation to help clients make it through the rough times. Being able to show clients how to lead a healthier lifestyle and watching them apply what they have learned is so rewarding. It is exciting to see the changes and to experience my clients reactions to the changes their bodies are making. Our society is generally so inactive and so unhealthy and it motivates me to try to make a difference. I am determined to change the world through fitness - one person at a time." - Marie Merritt 

All of Marie's clients will be pushed to their limits and will have a trainer by their side the entire time. Marie believes that being healthy and fit leads to a more productive and happier life. It is her goal to help people find that happiness within, and lead them along their path, using fitness as a guide. 

Having been an athlete her entire life, she understands the challenges one must go through to attain peak physical condition. She works with many of the local professional, collegiate, and junior athletes. Marie prides herself in her extensive knowledge of the human body and its mechanics. This helps ensure the success of her clients. She believes in motivating her clients and helping them make positive changes in their lives.

"All people are motivated for different reasons. No matter your reason, I believe that you deserve the opportunity to be guided by a fitness professional who can assist you in creating the most effective routine for you. Every individual deserves the opportunity to train and to live a healthy lifestyle. The lifestyle changes that I have guided my clients through have been very challenging, yet rewarding, to all parties involved. Each person possesses a different quality that adds a new dynamic to Momentum. I feel that it is a pleasure to serve all of my clients and to provide them with the highest quality training. Every client brings a new challenge and has a different set of goals, but they all share a drive to succeed. My life is richer because of the positive changes that I have helped make in people's lives. I am truly blessed to have the gift of motivating others to change themselves into healthier, happier individuals."
