Meet Coach Kelly 🤍
If you know Kelly, you know she has this really special way of making people feel seen. She’s thoughtful, encouraging, incredibly knowledgeable, and somehow always seems to notice the little things that matter.
Kelly has been an athlete her whole life and an educator, so coaching was a pretty natural fit. She gets to combine two things she loves: movement and helping people learn. But what makes her coaching especially meaningful is that she’s also lived this season herself.
Kelly is a mom of three, and each of her experiences looked a little different. They shaped the way she coaches—not just in how she approaches movement, but in how she helps women recognize that their experience matters.
She loves being the coach she didn’t have but needed during her first pregnancy and postpartum season.
And honestly, that perfectly sums up why we love having her on the Motherhood Strong team.
Kelly is also a Special Educator and Behavior Analyst, and that background shows up in the way she coaches. She knows that everyone learns differently, moves differently, and brings different strengths to the gym. She’s constantly asking herself, “What does this athlete need from me?” and adjusting from there.
But perhaps the sweetest part of Kelly’s story is what this community has given back to her. Three years ago Kelly and her family moved here knowing almost no one. Through the gym they eventually found a whole village. Her three babies are growing up in the gym, and now she gets to coach the moms who have become part of her village.
That’s what we hope Motherhood Strong can be for women—and we love that Kelly gets to experience it from both sides. 🤍
Kelly is happiest with a cup of coffee, moving her body, being outside, and playing like a kid with her babies. You can find her jumping off the diving board and flying down the slides all summer long.
And if you’re wondering about her favorite movement: squat sn**ch, followed closely by wall balls and back squats.
We are so lucky to have you, Kel. Thank you for bringing your heart, your incredible brain, and your genuine love for moms to Motherhood Strong.
