“I got my first certification through NESTA in the early 2000s, when I first decided I wanted to have a career in Fitness and Personal Training after college. It was a decision I made in College. I knew I wanted to own my own Fitness Business and I continued to acquire my education through NESTA throughout my career. I like the way NESTA is invested in helping Fitness Professionals grow, expand their knowledge, and push into higher education and professionalism while giving us the tools we need.

I started my business, Kickstart Fitness for Women in 2010, and continue to complete the courses necessary to keep my Business/ Fitness Studio the best it can be for the community and my clientele in the Health and Wellness industry. I focus on body, mind, and spirit Wellness, teaching how everything is connected. It’s key to be well in each of these areas. NESTA helps me create a platform where I can bring the best to my clients. I also have been able to start speaking to different groups in the community about Health and Wellness, bringing education to every individual. I currently hold eight certifications from NESTA, and I am close to finishing my Master Trainer certification which I have aspired to do for many years!” – Kristy Lair
