A Safe and Supportive Space for Every Woman
Starting a new workout routine can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve been away from the gym or have had negative experiences elsewhere. That’s why Studio Fitness was designed to be the opposite of what most people expect from a gym.
You’ll never feel lost or invisible here. Every session is guided by a professional who genuinely cares about your well-being. We create an environment where you can focus on growth, not comparison.
Our female fitness trainers in Santa Rosa emphasize:
-
Form over speed: Proper movement prevents injury and builds lasting strength.
-
Progress over perfection: Small, steady gains create sustainable results.
-
Encouragement over pressure: Motivation comes naturally in a positive space.
Whether your goal is to lose weight, improve endurance, regain strength after an injury, or simply feel more confident in your own body, our trainers will meet you with empathy and expertise.
Training Designed Around Women’s Bodies
Women’s fitness isn’t one-size-fits-all. Hormonal shifts, muscle composition, bone density, and energy levels all change throughout life. Our trainers understand these patterns and adjust your program to match your body’s unique rhythm.
We focus on:
-
Strength and muscle tone: To build lean mass that supports metabolism and bone health.
-
Core stability and balance: To prevent falls, injuries, and back pain.
-
Joint-friendly workouts: Using proper mechanics and low-impact resistance training.
-
Hormone-supportive routines: Especially during menopause, postpartum recovery, or major life changes.
At Studio Fitness Santa Rosa, we see muscle as medicine. Building it not only shapes your body but strengthens your heart, stabilizes your joints, and helps your mind stay sharp and resilient.
The Difference Experience Makes
Our team of female trainers includes professionals with decades of experience in personal training, nutrition, and rehabilitation. They don’t just design workouts — they coach for life.
You’ll find guidance from trainers like:
-
Shelly Fitzsimmons, owner and wellness coach with over 25 years of experience in physiotherapy and nutrition.
-
Lida Vrbovcova, certified trainer specializing in sports nutrition and women’s flexibility training.
-
Melinda Abreu, professional trainer with over 20 years of experience helping women of all ages find their strength.
-
Bryanna Vives, NASM-certified instructor focused on the link between movement and mental well-being.
Each trainer brings a unique skill set, but they all share the same mission: to empower women to live longer, stronger, healthier lives.
The Studio Fitness Method – Strength With Intention
Our philosophy is rooted in mindful, intentional training. We don’t believe in rushing through reps or chasing exhaustion. Instead, we teach women to move with purpose, build functional strength, and develop the kind of endurance that carries into everyday life.
We use proven methods like Super Slow Strength Training, stability and balance work, and resistance-based mobility exercises. Combined with personalized nutrition guidance, these tools create total-body wellness that goes far beyond the gym floor.
The results speak for themselves:
-
Stronger muscles and healthier joints
-
Improved bone density and posture
-
More energy and confidence
-
Greater emotional balance
-
A renewed sense of independence
When you feel physically capable, it changes the way you show up in every part of life — from your family to your career to your community.
The Power of Community
What truly sets Studio Fitness apart is the community that forms inside our walls. You’ll see women in their 20s training alongside women in their 70s. You’ll hear laughter between sets, encouragement from trainers, and stories of transformation that go beyond the scale.
This atmosphere matters. When you feel supported, you’re more likely to stay consistent, push through challenges, and enjoy the process.
Our female trainers lead by example. They live the same commitment to health, self-respect, and personal growth that they teach.
Fitness That Fits Your Life
We know that women juggle a lot — careers, families, and endless to-do lists. That’s why our trainers create efficient, realistic programs that fit your schedule and energy level. You’ll never be asked to live in the gym. You’ll simply learn how to train smarter and move better in the time you have.
Every session is personalized to your goals, body type, and experience level. Our goal isn’t just to make you stronger — it’s to give you the tools to stay strong for life.
