Kathie’s resume includes: the YMCA of Houston since 2000. She started first as a Water Aerobics Instructor where she quickly found fitness was her niche and became a Certified Fitness Trainer through International Sports Science Association- Professional Division.

Her love of her work with the Active Older Adults at the YMCA lead to her next certification as a Certified Specialist in Older Adult Fitness. Working with older adults led Kathie to become the lead trainer of  Active Older Adults (AOAs) in Richmond, Texas and she was the first instructor of Silver Sneakers© at this YMCA.

Her oldest son quickly rose the ranks of Little League Baseball (from 2002-2009) and so her next certification came along the same lines. She became a Certified Specialist in Sports Conditioning in hopes of working with athletes. And at about the same time she began training extensively at LA Fitness in Sugar Land. There she worked with clients of all fitness levels for about 2 years. Read about how athlete’s success rate is increased by working with a personal trainer by Clicking Here.

In November 2008 she landed an opportunity to open her own studio Body Designer Houston was then purchased by Kathie. There she uses the Thera-Plex Unit as the form of passive-active exercise. This is a circulatory workout as opposed to a cardiovascular workout.

She purchased the studio from Sally Nelson in 2008. And has 3 Thera-Plex Units in use at the studio. Body Designer Houston is now located in Richmond, just west of Houston.

Kathie enjoys helping others with this form of exercise. Anyone can do this type of exercise and it is very rewarding to see those reap the benefits. Kathie has helped hundreds of clients lose weight or helped those who may have been unable to exercise by using the Thera-Plex Unit. This is a great form of exercise for any body!!
