Hi, I’m Coach Payton. I help trans and queer adults transform their relationship with fitness and themselves through affirming, personalized coaching that delivers real strength—physically, mentally, and emotionally. My coaching is personalized, results-driven, and rooted in science, designed to help you grow with intention and clarity.

I believe that everyone deserves to feel empowered in their body. As an inclusive, education-focused trainer, my goal is to support you in discovering what works best for you—your body, your goals, and your life—and then help you turn that into sustainable action.

I’ve been training for over 2 decades across a range of modalities including CrossFit, HIIT, Strength & Conditioning, Mobility, Kettlebells, and Hypertrophy. No two clients are the same, which is why my coaching approach is flexible and affirming—meeting you where you are, and working with you in achieving your goals.
