Lisa Roper
Owner & Coach
I’ve always been into fitness. I was the kid that couldn’t wait for PE, and I did many sports growing up, including track. My passion for running has stayed with me to this day. Sports gave me a chance to push myself and I loved being part of a team. I worked in a gym as a teen and often thought about being a fitness instructor. Life quickly changed when I became a teen mom. I put my goals on hold. I became the cheerleader for my growing family. I am now a busy stay at home mom of 4 beautiful kids, and I have an amazing husband that has been pushing me to fulfill my passion for coaching. My “me time” was always running races, mud runs and working out at home with kiddos crawling all over me. I wanted to feel that fire in my belly I got from working with a team. I tried several different programs and gyms, but after a short while I wasn’t feeling that push and found myself plateauing. A lot of my girlfriends were talking about Kaia, so I did a quick search and found Kaia FIT. Kaia was everything I felt was missing in the other programs I tried. It quickly became my second home. I couldn’t wait for the alarm to go off. When you walk in the door, it feels like a big giant hug. Kaia is a family and we’re all here for the same reasons. I immediately knew this was a program that I wanted every women to be introduced to. No matter your age or previous fitness level, Kaia is for you! I feel incredibly lucky to wake up every day and coach women to find the best version of themselves. Some people get runners high. I get a Kaia Koach high! A favorite Kaia “ah-ha” moment: Our mind is a powerful tool. Thoughts become things. Just when you “think” you can’t do one more push-up, tell yourself “I’ve got this” and everything else will fall into place. Kaia has taught me that pushing past those moments is when you reach a new level of strong in every sense of the word.
