Debra Harley
I have been a health, fitness and wellness advocate my whole life. After a 30+ year career in K-12 education and teacher training I embarked on my "next" career as a Personal Trainer. I believe movement is the key to emotional and physical strength. My goal is to provide information and workable approaches to clients while supporting them in achieving attainable goals.
