Megan Pupilis

​

I’m a “you are stronger than you think" type of trainer who will push you to your limits and enjoy watching you accomplish something you didn't think you could do. I'm open and honest with my clients about what they need to do to accomplish their goals. I'm encouraging, motivating, and tough--and I do it with a smile on my face. :) I have taught yoga for the last 10 years and love the balance yoga brings to a training program and strive to design and implement a program customizable for each and every client I work with. No 2 persons are the same and neither should your program. As a yoga teacher and trainer my goal is to inspire clients to connect with their own personal wisdom, healing abilities and expansive potential.   I strive to help students to strengthen the body and calm the mind, while at the same time detoxify and electrify the body and mind at their deepest levels. I also make sure my students see that fitness is not all that serious, it is also fun and a healthy dose of laughter.
