Ingrid Green

At age four, Ingrid’s mom enrolled her in karate school where she began learning the basic techniques of punching, kicking, and blocking. Ingrid loved the physical conditioning and discipline of martial arts. Training five days a week, she quickly advanced through the belt levels and qualified to compete in national and international tournaments; her family dubbed her the “Karate Kid.” Ingrid also taught youth karate classes for several years and continued her martial arts practice until age seventeen. By sophomore year of high school, Ingrid was ready for a change and traded her Gi for a cheer uniform. Cheerleading demanded focus, discipline, and physical conditioning, making it a seamless transition. Although her competitive athletic pursuits ended after high school, Ingrid’s commitment to fitness never wavered. She remained active throughout college and made time to exercise regularly while raising two children. Ingrid’s passion for fitness and teaching led her to pursue a personal trainer certification.

Philosophy
Years of karate training and teaching combined with her collaborative nature taught Ingrid the importance of tailoring workout programs to each client’s goals, fitness level, and lifestyle. Her first session with clients serves as a walk-through. Ingrid spends additional time reviewing key details and answering questions. “It is important clients understand the objective of the program, feel comfortable using the equipment and transitioning from one machine to another.” She loves helping clients unleash strength they did not realize they possess. “It is so rewarding to see improvements and progressions throughout the training process.” Ingrid’s goal is to empower her clients to step out of their comfort zone and work out independently with weights and without fear.

About Me
Ingrid lives in Walpole with her husband and two children. Outside the gym, Ingrid’s kids’ activities keep her on the go. The Greens love spending their summer vacations in Plattsburgh, NY, where the Adirondacks have become their home away from home.
