“Hey there! I am Coach Carrie Vernon …aka, Spicy Pants! I am a Certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness instructor, a mom of two, wife, small business owner and fitness is my priority! I call it sweat therapy and truly believe it is the most important and proven way to stay mentally and physically healthy. I moved back to this area 6 years ago 30 lbs heavier and in need of a change. I worked in IT for 18 years and it was just not my calling. Since becoming an instructor and Personal Trainer, I have had a front row seat to some seriously amazing transformations in some seriously amazing humans. It is the most rewarding job and allowing people a platform to find the strength they have always had inside is a gift that I am honored to provide! Everyone, no matter your age, activity level or stage in life, you have the ability to make a change. All it takes it is one small step and I am honored to be a part of a team that provides the safe and encouraging environment to make that step. Come and join us!!!”

“I am Jennifer Osborne and was born and raised in the Roanoke Valley. I graduated from Lord Botetourt High School, then received my bachelor’s degree in Biology from Roanoke College where I graduated in 2006. After college, I got a job as a zoo keeper at Mill Mountain Zoo. A hawk attack experience made me realize that was not the avenue for me. I spent several years working on my family’s farm helping my dad grow apples, peaches and produce. I decided to become a real estate agent in 2015 and have been doing it ever since and love helping make dreams come true! I have always loved working out and have been interested in fitness. Joining BOCO Fit Rage was the best thing for me several years ago. I have loved every workout there and became hooked! So happy to have joined the family there, they are the best!”
