Welcome to Milestone Fitness! My name is Lauren Bell and I am the owner, sole trainer and fitness instructor for all of my offerings. After graduating from Alma College with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Exercise and Health Science and Dance, I followed my passion and pursued a career in the fitness field. Aside from a few years in fitness management and teaching at local studios, most of my experience has been corporate fitness within the automotive industry. In 2021, I finally took the full-time leap into my own business, offering outdoor circuit training, virtual classes, and in-home (or virtual) personal training.

 

Since 2005, I have obtained a number of additional certifications and continuing education credits in order to maintain my ACE Personal Trainer certification. I am an ACE Fitness Nutrition Specialist, as well as a certified instructor for Schwinn, INSANITY and YogaFit. In addition to staying current with the latest fitness trends and research, I also dedicate a lot of time and energy into designing effective, well-rounded workouts that offer plenty of variety to both my class participants and clients. I always emphasize proper form and encourage the use of more basic modifications or equipment-based tools to improve both the effectiveness and safety of each exercise. I am exceptionally organized and structured and always arrive well-prepared for classes and training. 

 

I hope to share my love for fitness and my dedication to a (mostly) healthy and balanced lifestyle. By offering group activities and hikes, I strive to show others how to implement healthy behaviors into everyday life, enjoy the stress-free benefits of being outdoors, involve friends and family in active weekend adventures and find the activities that bring them joy! I truly believe that my creative workouts and challenges will allow all of us to remain independent and continue to enjoy the fun, real-life hobbies and interests that we want to keep doing as we age.
