Our Team
AManda Kerr
My name is Amanda, and I am the founder of Amanda Kerr Fitness.
For years I have always had skinny genetics, and I wanted to feel strong and confident. I have spent years learning how to properly file my body, train with purpose and build strength. That journey lead me to compete in bodybuilding where I discovered how amazing the human body can perform when you give it consistency, patience and the right plan.
That experience changed my perspective on fitness and it’s what inspired me to open Amanda Kerr Fitness, a women’s only personal training studio designed to be a space where women can feel comfortable supported and empowered. No intimidation, no comparison, just a welcoming environment where you can learn, grow, and become stronger than you ever thought possible.
My mission isn’t just to help women lose weight or build muscle. It’s to help them build confidence, create sustainable habits, and realize they’re capable of so much more than they think. Whether you’re walking into a gym for the very first time or looking to take your training to the next level, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Fitness isn’t about perfection, it’s about becoming the strongest, healthiest version of yourself. And there’s nothing more rewarding than watching women walk into my studio unsure of themselves and seeing them leave feeling strong, confident, and proud of what their bodies can do.
My goal is simple: to help every woman who walks through my doors become the best version of herself, inside and out. Together, we’ll build strength, confidence, and a lifestyle that lasts far beyond the gym.
Founder
Kyla Black, B.Sc., M.Kin
Fitness should never be the limiting factor in how you experience the world. As a Registered Kinesiologist, my mission is to bridge the gap between clinical exercise science and real-world capability, helping clients build resilient bodies that are entirely unlimited. Our enjoyment in fitness can take many forms and my dream for you is to help cultivate an appreciation for your health and what you become capable of.
My approach to exercise is shaped by a diverse professional background. I bring 9 years of clinical practice, 4 years of specialized gym and strength conditioning experience, and an extensive history of health-focused community volunteer opportunities. These roles have reinforced a singular philosophy: true physical well-being requires profound purpose. We must deeply care about why we train. By intentionally seeking out challenges, choosing to do hard things, and actively investing in our physical health, we unlock the ability to find genuine joy in what our bodies can achieve. Taking care of ourselves is the gateway to fully partaking in, and enjoying, every adventure life has to offer.
I like to practice what I preach and live this philosophy in all that I do. My routine is based upon a purpose that exercise has helped support. With a passion to pursue new experiences, I've competed in running events ranging from 5K to 30K, with a continuous drive for greater distances. Yet, I've also found joy in my weight training sessions knowing it has kept me injury free, allowed me to say yes to a multitude of experiences and views, and strengthen my mental health by being an outlet.
Ultimately, I strive to be the professional you can rely on to prepare you for what you want. Whether your goal is to complete your first 5K, embark on a challenging hike, or explore new activities, I am dedicated to ensuring your body is capable of saying "yes" to every opportunity.
