Our Story 

An athlete in high school and college, April Carpenter has always loved exercise. In 1997 she received her Master of Arts degree in Religion and has pondered and prayed about how her two loves could combine. For April, the dream truly took shape in 2019. God placed the idea in her heart for a small group fitness and personal training studio that offers a variety of class formats from a variety of experienced fitness professionals. Each class having an inspirational ending.

Our Mission

During a meeting with possible instructors, the word FAITH was broken down by the group with attributes and qualities they hope to provide to potential clients.
F- fellowship, fun, friendships, fitness, faithfulness, fruitful
A- Active, agility, adopt, adoration, admiration, appreciation, affirm
I- interactive, invigorate, inspire, invest, involved
T- Thrive, triumph, trust, thankful, together, train
H- healthy, happy, hard work, harmony, heartfelt, healing


Faith Inspired Training was borne at this meeting along with its name and a mission statement. FIT opened June 1, 2020, with a handful of clients and instructors.

Currently Faith Inspired Training has nine instructors with a combined total of 67 years of experience. A variety of formats are offered every week such as Zumba, Yoga, Chair Aerobics, Chair Yoga, Circuit, Strength & Balance, FIT Cardio, FIT Pound, Line Dance, Boot Camp, and Boxing Circuit.

Class sizes are small by design. Each instructor takes delight in serving the clients when they ask for stretches for their stiff back or for ways to incorporated stretches in the morning.

Faith Inspired Training has formed into a loving and welcoming community. We don’t ask what church you attend. We say “WELCOME! we are so glad you are here.” If you miss a class or two, we check in to make sure you are all right. We sign cards of sympathy when someone has lost a loved one or send cards encouraging speedy recoveries.
