Who I Am

A Little Bit About Me

Hi! My name is Kara! I was born and raised in Farmington, CT. I have lived in Tennessee, Colorado, Montreal, and I made my way back to Connecticut in 2016. My love for fitness started right after college when I was living in Colorado. I began to attend these very intense boot camps, and I watched my body get stronger as well as my mental health. Fitness became very important to me as a form of self-care. I had always worked in the mental health and special education field, my days were long and stressful, and I was always working to help others. Working out was my time for me; my time to decompress.

When I moved back to Connecticut in 2016, I was introduced to The Yoga Shop. I quickly fell in love with the yoga and community. I completed my 200hr and 300hr Yoga Teacher Training with The Yoga Shop. I am RYT 500 hr. LivFree certified. I have been teaching at the Yoga Shop since 2018. The Yoga Shop has become a massive part of my life, and I am so happy that I can open Primal Fit in my home. Thank you, Annie and Kim, for welcoming Primal Fit into the family!

A couple of years ago, I wanted to add variety into my fitness routine, and I started taking group classes at Knockout Fitness. Here I learned how to box and began strength training again. I started teaching group fitness classes such as YogaBox, strength and conditioning, and kickboxing at Knockout Fitness in 2019. During my time at Knockout, Fitness is when I started personal training. I learned so much from Antony and John Atallah. They both worked with me one on one to become the trainer I am today. I also started personal training at the Hartford Golf Club in 2020 and became a NASM certified personal training (CPT).

Fitness is so important for everyone. It is vital for our physical and mental health. I have seen so many people walk away from personal training because of the cost. That is why when creating Primal Fit, I decided my mission was going to be to provide affordable and effective personal training to everyone.

Primal Fit is raw and authentic. No bells and whistles, just you and your innate ability to push limits!

Covid-19

Here's how we're staying COVID friendly!

If you are not feeling well, have been exposed, or been in a high risk environment please do not come to the studio. For your safety and the safety of the Primal Fit and The Yoga Shop community please stay home.
A mask will be worn by trainer (you can take your mask off while working out)
Mask must be worn until you begin working out and put back on after the session to leave the building or to use the restroom.
Temperature will be taken at the door.
Use of hand sanitizer upon arrival is required.
Primal Fit is a separate space within the The Yoga Shop, it is a one on one setting; therefore very COVID friendly. The room and equipment will be cleaned between each session.
Please bring your own workout mat or boxing gloves (if boxing is a part of your fitness plan)

Please respect these guidelines to keep everyone safe. We appreciate your continued support!
