About Coach Barb

Empowering youth athletes, from beginners to high-performers

Barb is passionate about creating a community of kids growing together in sports. Through her youth fitness and development programs, she teaches youth self-advocacy and boosts their self-esteem—skills they can take with them outside of the gym into their day-to-day lives. Barb believes that training youth athletes can set them up for a lifetime of fitness.

Barb works with kids who are just starting out as well as competitive athletes and teams. She’s a big kid at heart and loves nothing more than empowering young athletes to be the best they can be.
