Kara Miklaus

First and foremost Kara has been into fitness her whole life. She is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and all forms of exercise. She can tailor a plan to maximize your results. She is driven to help you achieve your goals. I’ve known Kara for 11 years. I met her when she became my running coach. If you want to workout indoors she’s great at that, if outdoor activities is your preference she’s great at that. You only have to look at this woman to know she knows what she’s doing. She practices what she preaches. You will achieve your goals believe me! AND yes she is funny in between sets when your taking a breather. 😂😂 More...

I've been a student of Kara's for 6+ years now and she was monumental in my prep for joining the military. She helped me modify workouts during a time I was injured and she manages to maximize efficiency regardless of the situation. I would highly recommend Kara to anyone based on her training alone, but she also brings a great attitude and great music! More...

Kara is the strongest, toughest, badass chick that I know. Her love and passion for the fitness industry shines through her in everything that she does. She is so knowledgeable and so willing to share her knowledge and wisdom with her clients. I love just training with her! Thank you so much Kara, you have truely inspired me to actually enjoy working out! More...

The short time I was able to train with Kara was an absolute bliss. She pushed me beyond the limits that I thought I could do yet kept me motivated to never give up, the time just flew by! She is truly so amazing at what she does! More...

Working with Kara for the past 7 years has been an absolute pleasure. Not only is she an expert in physical fitness and nutrition, but her energy is contagious. She makes exercising fun and customizes training based on each individual’s personal goals. I highly recommend Kara to both beginner and advanced athletes, as well as everyone in between. If I could give her more than a 5-star rating I would! More...

At 72 years old Kara enhanced my life with her fitness coaching and nutrition guidance. She is professional, relentless and occasionally funny. I can now keep up with all 9 of my grandkids! More...

I realized I needed a change when I tried to pick my baby up out of the bath and stand up at the same time, but I couldn’t. After more than 9 months of bed rest, I had no strength. So I found Kara. It felt like we were starting at 0 and I was so nervous that I wouldn’t be able to keep up but she was patient and encouraging. My mental health after having my baby wasn’t great and I realized how valuable my physical workouts are, just taking the time for myself, as well having a support system like Kara. In just a few short months of nutrition coaching and weekly workouts, I dropped 20 lbs, fell well below my pre-baby weight, dropped 4 minutes off of my mile time, and discovered a love for lifting heavy things. But more than that, I have a friend for life. Our sessions became like therapy for me. She celebrated all of my accomplishments, no matter how small. I came to Kara because I wanted to be strong enough to keep up with my child and I got so much more than that. More...

I swear Kara has eyes in the back of her head. She sees everything that is why it's the best workout you will ever have. It's crazy how she can see what you are capable of, even before you realize it yourself. The most rewarding experience is leaving a workout with her because she pushed you beyond imaginable. More...
