Hiiii! Im Ophelia, the proud owner of Fit4Mom St. Vrain Valley. I have two boys, Liam (almost 7) and Grady (4). Im married to my BFF, Jimbo, and we've been together 17 years 😍

Fit4Mom has been a huge part of my motherhood journey. After I had my first in 2017, I lost my job and became a stay at home mom. It was a whole new chapter in my life and I felt so lonely in it. As soon as I got cleared to workout again, I started looking for exercising mom groups. At 8 weeks PP, Fit4Mom was the golden ticket. I quickly made friends, I felt like I really belonged to something...plus I got to exercise and bring my little sweet baby along. By the end of 2017 I became an instructor at Fit4Mom Irvine. I quickly fell in love and found a passion I didn’t even know existed. By the time I had my second, I was certified in everything that Fit4Mom offered - I was obsessed.

In 2019 I had my second and life felt like it turned upside down. I was hit hard with postpartum depression/anxiety/rage…all the things. Having my community at Fit4Mom was my light during this time.

In 2020 we moved to Colorado and started over. I quickly realized how little there was for moms to do in the area and had this gut feeling that I needed to share the magic of Fit4Mom in the St. Vrain Valley area and in June 2021 I did just that.

I’m Lauren! (mom to Riley, Kaiden, and Jayde) I am the Leads Manager & an instructor. I’m a Colorado native, born and raised in Arvada, went to college in Fort Collins, now settled in Firestone. I’ve been with my husband since 2010, the same year he began his career and joined the army; we are a military family! Besides our human children, we have two fur babies, Jackson (chocolate lab) and Opie (staffordshire terrior), that make our family complete!

After moving, working remote, having a baby, then quitting my job to stay home with our baby, I felt alone and on my own to figure out this new chapter called motherhood. Then came baby 2. I was just a mom/wife looking to find MY identity in the world. I didn’t know where to start trying to make connections that would stick. I was so nervous when I tried my first free class, but the idea of getting to be physically active with my kids held my attention. Quickly, I knew it was something that I was going to make part of my routine for ME. Fit4Mom is a place where I am healthier, both mentally and physically, surrounded by other moms who can relate to my day to day, all in similar places in life, all while having my own identity and setting an example for my kids.

Hi, I’m Erica! I’m a boy mom to a 5y, 3y & 3m old. I’ve been with Fit4Mom SVV since it was just a dream of owner Ophelia’s & have watched our Village grow from the day we held our very first class. I’m the Village Manager, a Stroller Strides, Body Boost & Strides 360 instructor as well as a BodyWell coach. As the Village Manager I plan our playgroups, our moms night outs, field trips etc. which is such a fun job.

Outside of Fit4Mom I’m a wife of almost 10 years, I homeschool & love to sketch portraits! I have a side gig as an artist that I’ll return to once the “new baby dust” has settled.

I love to help women see what their bodies are capable of, how strong they are and the beauty of how that strength influences their children. I equally love distracting your kids so you can claim the class time as yours. I love holding all the babies and blowing all the bubbles!

If I could give you words of encouragement for your first class:

You are worthy of this hour. You’ve made the breakfast, you’ve packed the snacks, you’ve gotten the shoes on. Now, it’s time for you. I know that this is daunting and you don’t know what to expect. I know that stepping out of your bubble is scary and sometimes its easier to stay safely in it. I promise you this: You will instantly be welcomed and surrounded by the kindest group of fellow moms who have all been the new mom once. You will leave your first class feeling empowered and strong. Loved and supported. I promise you’ll forget about how hard it was to get out the door this morning the minute you hop in the circle!

Hello - I'm Megan! My husband (of almost ten years!) and I have two kids: a three-year old daughter, and a one-year old son. Both of us grew up here in Colorado, met here in Colorado, and have lived here our entire relationship - and honestly, we can't imagine ever leaving. We love being outside, whether it's hiking in the summer or skiing in the winter. There's so much to do!

I'm absolutely thrilled to be running the SVV Fit4Mom Run Club. I started running over a decade ago, and I immediately fell in love with the sport. I've spent a ridiculous amount of time either learning about running or putting that knowledge into practice. It's been a passion that has grown and changed with me through all the stages of my life - I'm so excited to watch the same happen for you! When I'm not running or spending time outside, I work full-time in website and marketing analytics (read: setting up lots of backend tracking, report-building, and database querying and management).

Hi, I’m Courtney! I have a 3 year old son named Aiden and a 15 month old daughter named Autumn. I was born and raised in Virginia and moved to Colorado in 2016, then moved to Frederick in 2021 right before Aiden was born. My husband and I met on a storm chase in 2012 after we graduated college at Virginia Tech (go Hokies!) and got married in 2019. We also have an Aussie doodle named Luna and a kitty named Tara. In my free time outside of work, I enjoy hiking, crafts, binging Netflix and reading.

I am a full time working mom who loves all kinds of fitness but my favorite is probably weight lifting.

While on maternity leave, I found the St. Vrain Valley Fit4mom group and instantly knew this group was special! I was so excited to find other moms in my area and to workout with them and my baby by my side. After my maternity leave was over, the Body Well program was my saving grace. Now I am a Body Well coach and enjoy sharing my passion and excitement for the program with other moms who I get to call my close friends.

Encouragement for new mom:

No matter where you are in your mom journey Fit4mom has a place for you. It can be overwhelming at first but everyone is so welcoming and getting to move around with or without your kiddos is so refreshing. Come to class and check it out, you won’t regret it!

Hey there! I’m Heathyr, the book club coordinator for Fit4mom St. Vrain Valley. I’m originally from a small town in Iowa and moved to Colorado for grad school. I’ve been married for 7 years to my amazing husband, Allan, and we’re parents to Jacob, who’s 5, and our mini dachshund, Shelby.

I absolutely love Fit4mom! I joined back in the very beginning of St. Vrain Valley in May 2021, going to a free class, and realizing I needed this awesome community of mamas in my life!

I’m so happy to be your book club coordinator! Like many other moms, I lost a little bit of myself while trying to keep a tiny human alive. And I just wasn’t finding time for me. Enter…Fit4mom and our village book club! I love books and I love to read. I always have. Our book club has brought out our love for books! Mamas, including myself, are reading more than we have in ages. It’s fun to read a new book, have an extra mom’s night out, and make time for you again!

Along with Fit4mom and reading, I also love to bake, watch Below Deck and holiday Hallmark movies when I have time, and drinking cold brew coffee year round!

Encouragement for a new mom:

Join Fit4mom and find your village! I wish I had known about this wonderful community when my son was a newborn. It will change your life!
