Ross Major

Certified Personal Trainer & Instructor

Ross Major, NASM-certified and a firm believer in "movement is medicine," has a lifelong passion for fitness rooted in childhood ballet classes and equestrian activities. His journey includes being a Kenpo Karate instructor, serving as an Arctic Paratrooper in Alaska, and exploring America as a blackjack dealer. A significant achilles injury during a 300-mile hike on the Pacific Crest Trail redirected his focus to the healing aspects of movement, deepening his commitment to a holistic fitness approach.
 
Ross's training philosophy is a consistency for progress, variety for plateaus, and randomness for fun—mirrors his multifaceted life experiences. He views strength not merely as an outcome but as a skill to be cultivated, focusing on building the body up through mindful practice rather than tearing it down. A functional strength coach at heart, Ross specializes in the Original Strength Reset system and hardstyle kettlebells, advocating for a balanced approach to fitness that prioritizes functional strength and movement integrity.
 
With a passion for connecting and sharing his journey, Ross encourages everyone he meets to embrace the philosophy that movement is medicine.
