THE PSF DIFFERENCE!

Huge Variety

Unlike most other programs, PSF offers a wide range of formats. Exercising is most effective when you are constantly changing up your fitness regimen.  Heather’s classes are original and fresh…she can deliver it all & you won’t find a better challenge!

Massively Efficient

Heather’s classes are nonstop beginning to end. The amount of effective fitness we offer within each workout is phenomenal. Through PSF you will never waste a minute of your time – Heather guarantees it!

High Energy

The electricity you feel during a PSF class is contagious and addictive. Heather’s legendary playlists combine with expert instruction to formulate a group fitness experience that is results-oriented and motivating!

Sweat Together

Most of our class time, we move TOGETHER!  This motivating synchronicity will push you past your comfort zone (which is our specialty!) As the beat of the music and flow of the workout drive you to your max, time will fly by without you even realizing just how hard you are working.

Client-Focused

Heather motivates her clients to be consistent and accountable  – she created PSF to be authentically intense…even if you are only able to be a Virtual PSF ROCKSTAR!  Heather sets her expectations high so you will always be pushed to work harder than you ever have before!

Community

The PSF community extends well outside of the studio! Heather’s social media, including our fitness and nutrition blog, connects clients beyond the workout, and our complimentary fitness challenges create fresh motivation and consistency!
