Hey there! My name is Kaitlin McGuffie or as Jason calls me Rosa – it’s a long random story, ask me about it sometime!

I live in Hilliard with my husband Rick, and our 5 year old fox terrier/Chihuahua, Dexter. I’m an energetic and fun-loving person. I love meeting new people and always do my best to make you feel welcome at our studio. You might even see me dancing along to music during the workout – don’t be afraid to join in!
.
I’ve been an Improvement Warrior since the fall of 2009. Throughout the years, I have not only lost weight, I’ve gained confidence, strength, and a true love for helping others achieve these same things. I’ve been coaching IWF clients since January of 2015 and am continuing to learn and grow each day.
I strongly believe that we all must take time to do what makes our souls happy and I’ve found that happiness at IWF – I hope you will too.
.
During the day I am the Director of Events and Foundation Programs for the Ohio Academy of Family Physicians.
I lead the Academy’s events as well as manage programs that encourage medical students to consider a career in family medicine. I went to college at Otterbein College and graduated with my Bachelors of Arts Degree in 2010.
.
I may just be starting out in my fitness coaching path, but I am so looking forward to working with you and helping you grow alongside me. I’ve learned so much at IWF and if anyone that knows me knows, I ask a lot of questions and am always willing to share all that I’ve learned. Looking forward to meeting you.

Let’s do this!
