My approach to training combines traditional methods and innovative techniques that are customized for each client's specific needs and goals. What sets me apart from other personal trainers is my focus on working with individuals who are facing personal challenges, such as physical limitations, mental health issues, or other obstacles. I believe in a holistic approach to fitness that considers not only the physical aspect but also my client's mental and emotional well-being. By addressing these personal challenges head-on, I can help my clients achieve long-lasting results and positively transform their lives.

As a personal trainer, I am dedicated to not only helping clients achieve their fitness goals but also empowering them to lead healthier and happier lives. I strive to build a strong connection with each client, understanding their unique needs and challenges to provide personalized guidance and support. With my knowledge, experience, and commitment to excellence, I am confident that I am the right trainer to help clients achieve their training needs and transform their lives for the better.

I hold multiple degrees to include:

- 2 Associate Degrees

- Bachelor of Science

- Master of Business Administration

My name is Melissa, and I am the owner and founder of Making Strydz, LLC. I am a Veteran, daughter, sister, and cancer survivor.

I am based in Castle Rock, CO, and I started this company after my cancer diagnosis.

So, how and why was Making Strydz developed?

Well, I have been a health and fitness enthusiast since 2005. However, my life took a little spin in 2019 when I started having some health issues. I figured they were seasonal allergies. In the summer of 2020, I realized it was not allergies and that I quickly began to get tired. The doctors started running tests to rule out various diseases. After a year of running tests and visiting the hospital every month, I finally had a diagnosis.

Cancer.

It took the doctors a year to discover the mass growing in my lung and airway because I am 'young' and, overall, very healthy. Once I received the diagnosis, we began discussing a plan of attack. After looking at every possible option, we determined that I would lose my lung. I had the surgery in November 2021.

For two years before my surgery, I struggled to keep my workout regime. After losing my lung, I realized many people struggle with maintaining an optimal quality of life for various reasons and do not know where or how to start. That is when I decided to open Making Strydz.

This is a company designed around helping others become the healthiest version of themselves, one stryd at a time. I know life can throw you curveballs, but I am here to help guide you and keep you on track to being a healthier and happier YOU.
