Meet Katie Reimer

Meet Katie Reimer, group exercise and personal training manager at MVP Metro Club. She starts each day with a packed schedule, balancing coordinating her team of trainers, scheduling client sessions, creating new programs and events, and connecting with members on the fitness floor.

“No two days feel the same, which I love,” Katie said.

In an industry focused on individual goals, Katie strives to create customized and engaging experiences for every member. “Every day brings something different,” she said. “I hold myself and my team to high standards, making sure each trainer is prepared to connect effectively with members.”

Katie describes her team as young, ambitious, and motivated to grow. “They’re a blast to be with every day. Their energy makes my job even more fun,” she said.

For Katie, fitness is about more than workouts. Her approach centers on building a true sense of community between staff and members. She intentionally spends time on the fitness floor, talking with members, observing training sessions, and supporting her team.

She encourages her staff to keep one another accountable for maintaining a positive, encouraging atmosphere in the club. This sense of accountability, she believes, is key to delivering consistent, high-quality experiences.

While group exercise and personal training are separate departments, Katie sees them as complementary. “Group Exercise and Personal Training are very different, but they work together to show the full picture of a member’s wellness journey,” she said.

Her focus is on making programs effective, enjoyable, and community-driven. Accountability and encouragement are built into every program, ensuring members feel both supported and challenged.

That personal touch hasn’t gone unnoticed. Member and training client Mandy Zweifel credits Katie with helping her achieve more than she imagined. “Katie has pushed me to reach goals in my lifting that I never thought possible,” Zweifel said. “She makes me feel confident with what I’m doing. Our training sessions are the highlights of my week, and she’s become one of my favorite people.”

For Katie, the most rewarding part of her role is seeing progress, whether it’s a member hitting a milestone or a trainer advancing in their career. “Finding ways to impact people’s lives and help them succeed never gets old,” she said.

As she continues to expand MVP Metro’s group exercise and personal training programs, Katie looks forward to creating even more opportunities for meaningful connections.

“Every day I’m reminded how powerful fitness can be in building confidence, friendships, and a healthier lifestyle,” she said. “I’m proud to help create that experience for others. I’ve developed leadership skills and business experience I never imagined when I first started, and I feel incredibly fortunate to grow alongside this community.”
