Meet Ashaunti Coleman

I’m Ashaunti, a certified personal trainer and a corrective exercise specialist through NASM. My journey in training began back in 2019 when I started working one-on-one with clients and teaching boot camps. Over the past four years, I’ve had the pleasure of training a diverse range of clients, aged 16 to 75, with varying goals and needs. Watching my clients grow and transform has been an incredibly fulfilling experience.

Throughout my own journey, I've grown into a coach I’m proud to be. I’m always eager to keep learning and adapting my skills so I can better serve my clients. My love for training began in 2012 when I first stepped into a gym and experienced the physical and mental benefits of fitness. I was amazed at how my body transformed, and I knew I wanted to help others experience that same empowerment.

If you’re looking to build strength endurance, gain muscle mass, or improve mobility, I’m here for you! Let’s work together to reach your goals.

Meet Katie Schurman

Hi there! I’m Katie, a former professional ballet dancer turned personal trainer, certified by NASM. I started my dance training at the age of 5, which eventually led to earning a Bachelor of Arts in Dance from Point Park University. After years of performing, I transitioned into teaching dance in and around Pittsburgh, sharing my love for movement with students at places like The Pennsylvania Academy of Dance and the Pittsburgh Ballet Theater.

Most recently, I started my own theater company, The Sewickley Youth Theater Company, where I get to help young people find joy in movement, build confidence, and develop teamwork skills. Now, I’m excited to bring my passion for movement and wellness into personal training.

I’ve carried the discipline and precision from my ballet background into my role as a trainer, where I focus on helping each client reach their goals with a personalized approach. I love introducing people to strength training in a welcoming environment, especially those who may feel intimidated by the gym. My mission is to create a supportive space where everyone feels comfortable, empowered, and excited to train.

Meet Shana McKeever

Hello, I’m Shana, a strength and conditioning coach who recently moved to Pittsburgh from Milwaukee with my husband. My background is rooted in competitive athletics, and I bring a performance-oriented approach to training. Whether your goals are sport-specific or geared toward enhancing everyday life, I’m here to help you achieve them.

I believe that everyone is an athlete in their own way, whether you’re just starting out or have years of training under your belt. My approach focuses on guiding clients through their natural range of motion with solid technique. This helps build strength across full movements, enhancing coordination, mobility, and flexibility.

In our sessions, I’ll take you through a progression that builds from feeling the movement to moving more quickly and then adding weight as needed. Outside of coaching, I’m an introvert who’s learning to tap into my extroverted side, especially when working with clients. When I’m not in the gym, I love being outdoors, rediscovering mountain biking, and exploring everything Pittsburgh has to offer.
