Elissa Tennant
NASM-Certified Personal Trainer
AFAA Certified Group Fitness Instructor | Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200)
Elissa is a NASM-Certified Personal Trainer who used to be very scared of the gym. After working with a personal trainer starting in 2017, she realized the importance of a strong mentor to make the gym accessible and approachable for all fitness levels, ages, and body types. Since then, she has gone on to earn her personal training certification in August 2022 and her group fitness and yoga teacher certifications in July 2024.
Born with the inability to sit still, Elissa enjoys dabbling in all types of fitness. She ultimately found her niche in strength training, yoga, and running. She has run three half marathons and countless 5ks. Her goal is to pass that love of fun, fitness, and willingness to try new things onto you, no matter where you are on your fitness journey.
Elissa holds a B.S. in Marketing from Cleveland State University. Outside of the gym, she serves as the Director of Marketing for Citizens’ Climate Lobby, a non-profit focused on empowering volunteers to work with their members of Congress to build the political will for a livable world by passing good climate laws. Outside of work, she can always be found either traveling, hiking, crocheting/knitting, eating vegan burritos, and/or caring for her small menagerie of pets.
