We opened our own training studio!!
October 30, 2023 –
After many years of ideas, visions, dreams and difficult words, we opened our own studio!!
Let me introduce you Real training studio right here in Bristol, Rhode Island.
Honestly, I can’t believe we’re already 2 months in because time really flies (especially when you’re having fun).
We have literally put blood, sweat, tears and hard work into this space and it wouldn’t even be a thing without my amazing husband, clients, friends and family who have truly supported us throughout. our journey.
I’m not sure they realize how truly grateful I am to each and every one of them.
If you’ve been reading my blog for a long time, you’ll know that I’ve always signed off at the end of every post with “keep it true,” because “sincerely, Kasey” always seemed a little too formal for me. Me.
The word TRUE has always been something I come back to whenever I feel like I’m doubting myself or a decision…just go back to what feels “real” to me.
When it came to naming my studio I had played around with so many different names and one day in the car with Corey I said out loud “True Training Studio” and we both looked at each other and said yes, that’s all.
We started assembling the studio, piece by piece, in July and opened our doors on August 14, 2023.
(Equipped with the best: adidas sneakers because I’m on my feet all day, shorts& crop reservoir).
To say that things have come full circle is just the short version of what the story was meant to be.
When we moved to Rhode Island in 2015, I remember Corey and I saying “oh, we’ll just stay there for a few years and come back”, but we quickly fell in love with the state, the people and the community. ‘a small town, so having a “home” here is just nice.
As a Personal Trainer, you learn to be creative in whatever space you are given. I have taught classes in parks, basements (thanks Dana!), backyards, streets, driveways, on zoom, facetime, and in many gyms over the years.
Each of these sessions was a stepping stone towards one day having a space of my own.
At the studio we offer personal training, buddy training, large group training, small group training, strength and conditioning for young athletes, group fitness classes, fuel coaching, physical therapy , massages and more!

I couldn’t be more excited to continue this journey and can’t wait to see what another 8 years will look like surrounded by the most incredible customers and community.
If there’s one thing I can say to hopefully inspire someone else, it’s to take that leap of fear.
(A little obsessed with this jacket to put on to and from the studio).
You will never feel “quite ready” or “fully prepared” to make a big change and there will be days of anxiety (many days lol) and doubt, but at the end of the night you do your best. , and I swear things are falling into place.
Thank you all for always being a continuous source of space where I can share my victories, my struggles and my stories.
Be true to you,
Kasey
