My fitness journey began at the wee age of 2. My step-father  owned a gym, competed in body building and later owned a gymnastics center in town. From there, I fell in love with fitness. I was a competitive gymnast my entire childhood. My mother coached my softball and basketball teams growing up and instilled a hard work ethic. As you can see, hard work, consistency, and dedication were instilled into me at a very young age.
 My journey as a gymnast ended just before middle school, and my newly found passion became basketball. Hard work, dedication, and consistency were yet again instilled into me by my amazing coaches that I still look up to. I went on to graduate high school and played intermural sports in college. After college, I moved back home to work for my family's Sonic Drive-In Franchise, where I still work today.

For the past 10 years, I have always aspired of owning my own business helping women feel better about themselves.  I taught Zumba for 3-4 years at my local YMCA, and started a non-profit "CrossFit" style workout group. After years of coaching, and teaching, and guiding others, I realized this is my true passion in life. In 2016 I enrolled in Health Coaching school through the worlds largest holistic health coaching school, IIN. I graduated a year later and did NOTHING with my certification. It wasn't until the summer of 2020, while on maternity leave with my second baby boy, I decided, "NOW IS THE TIME." Even in the midst of a pandemic, Sara Jo Fountain Health Coaching, LLC was born.
With my programs, I teach my clients how to eat what they want and train how they want without ruining their results. We slowly work on getting rid of those bad habits, and forming healthy, sustainable new ones.
