Alex Avanto holds a B.S. in Kinesiology with an emphasis in sport psychology. She is also an ACE (American Council on Exercise) certified personal trainer and a certified yoga instructor. Her coaching differs from most as she specializes in mental training techniques such as overcoming stress and anxiety, focusing strategies, imagery, relaxation, and mindfulness. She has experience working with athletes (specifically rock climbers), older adults, and those who want to implement fitness into their everyday lives. Alex has also done extensive research on motivation, goal setting, and the mind-body connection which has led to her clients to meet and exceed their health and performance goals. After learning how to take control of their mentality, Alex’s clients are able to reach their optimal performance level.
