yoga Feb 21, 2021

Myken proudly wears the midwestern badge of honour, while loudly cheering on the Wisconsin Packers and Badger teams! Having gained her degree in Marketing, her actual true knowledge, and love of running businesses have come from her real-world, hands-on health and fitness experience of 12 years. Starting at the bottom cleaning toilets, washing down equipment, and making 100+ lead calls a day; She has gained her overall experience opening businesses from the ground up, hitting first-year revenue and member records, earning a National Manager of the Year Award out of 2500+ employees, to owning her own brick and mortar business.

Some would say she specialises in the implementation and execution of systems and processes that directly correlate with your business’s revenue and client membership growth. Others would say that her coaching approach is that of tough love, honesty, and motivation. She has helped hundreds of clients get on the path to success. Every brick & mortar studio and online business is different, but if you are willing to put in the work and make things happen, then she will find a way to help you succeed in this journey. Go Pack Go!
