Nicole Moress - Owner

Nicole's passion for fitness and wellness started at a young age growing up in the mountains of Salt Lake City. Nicole has always led an active lifestyle; mountain biking, hiking, lifting weights, camping, snowshoeing and cross country skiing. Nicole ran her first marathon, The Marine Corps Marathon in 2008 and has completed a number of half marathons, 10k and 5k races. 

After working a number of years in the corporate world of commercial real estate development, filled with high stress and long hours, Nicole realized that her health and quality of life were suffering and she wanted to shift her focus back to a healthy way of living and share her passion with others.

While working full time, Nicole studied and tested for her NASM personal training certification. She then pursued her passion and became a personal trainer going to people's homes and places of business.

After spending a number of months as a personal trainer, yoga was another passion she decided to pursue. After a rigorous yoga teacher training with Inner Power Yoga in Sterling, VA Nicole obtained her RYT-200 certification.

​

Nicole's focus is now helping active duty, veterans and first responders providing trauma informed yoga and meditation working in veteran healthcare facilities, and in collaboration with other organizations and service providers who support veteran and military communities.  Her next step is creating a 501c-3 helping veterans in the Northern Virginia area.
