GET SUPPORT. GET RESULTS.

I provide personal training and wellness coaching in both a private trauma informed studio setting and an online context. I believe fitness is so much more than just physical. You will get whole person wellness here because I care about more than just the physical - we'll also focus on your mental, emotional and spiritual needs as well. As someone who journeyed myself from trauma to triumph, I believe in the healing potential of weightlifting for those who have experienced trauma, while also providing tools and resources to come back to safety and control within the body and mind. On your terms. I recognize that when working with bodies, I'm working with trauma to some degree. As your personal trainer, I am your ally in this journey and will partner with you to build a wellness plan based on your individual needs that get you real results and walking in more freedom!

WORK WITH AMIEE

Step into your freedom

Meet Your Coach

Hi! I'm Amiee Knebel. I'm here because people are my passion. I love seeing people transform, heal and do things they never thought possible. I've had people in my life help walk me to more freedom, and now it's my turn to help walk you into new and deeper freedom, power and healing. One thing you'll learn about me is I love stories. I believe story is powerful. So let me first tell you a little about my story and how Freedom Fitness with Amiee was born.

For much of my life I struggled with a lack of confidence, control and powerlessness. The reality is I have a deep history of trauma. And I hid. For a long time. Because I didn't want others to know how much I was hurting. The shame was crippling and I couldn't bear to be potentially seen as weak or incapable. Maybe you relate.

I've been an athlete my whole life, but my love for fitness and the real freedom truly began after the birth of my youngest daughter. After a lifelong struggle with my mental health, low self-esteem and various chronic auto immune disorders that were debilitating, I decided it was time to really take a hard look at how I was caring for me.

After years of hard, intentional work and experiencing the life-giving transformation that came from making healthy changes in all areas of my life, I felt this great desire to come alongside others and empower them to do the same. I left my previous career as a Worship Pastor, got certified as a Personal Trainer and began the deep of work of helping people come back to their bodies.

After moving across the country from Illinois to Arizona, I decided to leave my corporate fitness job and felt a nudge to narrow my focus to women with trauma histories. Thus, Freedom Fitness with Amiee was born. This shift of taking my business online has allowed me to not only impact lives locally but all across the world!

As a Personal Trainer and Coach, I help people reclaim their health and overcome the barriers holding them back from living their most free and whole life. Through a trauma informed personal training lens and an integrative approach to fitness, I help women with trauma histories feel safe, powerful and strong in their bodies and minds. This includes exercise, nutrition, stress management, sleep, relationships, mental health, spiritual health and developing healthy daily rhythms of life. Fitness is not a 30 day challenge or a sprint, but a lifelong journey that tends to the body, mind and spirit. If this is work you are ready to do, then you are in the right place and I can't wait to hear your story!

Eating a healthy, balanced diet is so important when it comes to making real, lasting changes and supporting long-term health. Every body and every goal is unique and, therefore, needs a specialized approach when it comes to nutrition. That’s why my program not only includes an exercise program but also nutrition coaching and guidance based off of your unique dietary needs, preferences, and goals so that you can learn to fuel your body to feel and look your best.

I have worked with Amiee for a few months now and she is incredible! My goals were to become comfortable navigating around the gym and learning proper form. Amiee recognizes my goals in every session and tailors my workouts appropriately. After such a short amount of time, I feel more confident and have seen drastic results. Amiee is kind, approachable, and overall wonderful to work with!

Amiee offers thorough instruction so that you understand what you are doing and why you are doing it. Along the way, Amiee motivates you to push yourself. She has given me extra confidence and that ability has allowed me to increase the weight I lift and do things I never thought I could do. I was never into running, but after working with Amiee, I can say that the cardio portions of my workouts feel great. In fact, I recently completed my first ever 5K! I would recommend Amiee as a personal trainer for whatever goals you are trying to achieve.

I have been training with Amiee for some time now and she is a true professional at what she does. It’s clear that she’s passionate about fitness and wants to create that passion in those she trains. I had been dealing with an injury from running, but since hiring Amiee as my personal trainer, I've been able to grow in strength and use my muscles in a more functional way, which has made me a better and faster runner without any injuries. I have been able to surpass my personal goals all while setting new goals to constantly grow and become stronger and healthier. Her workouts are challenging, fun and effective.

Amiee does a great job as a personal trainer. She helped make it easy for me to start a workout routine again. Amiee set up a personalized routine that challenged me, without making me feel overwhelmed. She helped take the stress out of establishing an exercise routine that I could maintain consistently. My training also incorporates new exercises that I normally would not have chosen on my own.

She has a wealth of knowledge on diet and nutrition that have also helped me achieve my goals. The results I’ve experienced in strength and weight loss have exceeded my expectations so far. I would highly recommend working with Amiee as a coach and personal trainer.

Warren G.

Amiee has helped me tremendously with my health goals. She is very patient and has a great understanding of client’s needs in all facet’s. I have exceeded my expectations for weight loss, stability and balance. My fitness journey is still in progress, however, with her expertise as a personal trainer and nutrition coach, I know I will continue to grow and achieve any goal I set out to accomplish. I can’t say enough kind words about her.
