I started working out with Laura (9 years ago) after I signed up for a Spartan Race and had no idea what I was in for, so a friend suggested that I train with Laura. I continued to train with Laura because she is the only person that has been able to get me to commit to a healthier lifestyle and exercise. Her workouts are a challenge, but she never pushes me into something I am not capable of and I am stronger than I have ever been. The "pack" that trains at IronWolf is supportive, accepting, inclusive and I've made some lifelong friends there.
I started training with Laura - the owner of IronWolf - 7 months ago, and my experience has been transformative. In that time, Laura has helped me navigate beyond existing injuries and build significantly more strength and fitness. I feel so good, and so much better: more energy, better sleep, and focus, mood. Laura is a savant of a trainer with a sense of humor and purpose that makes you want to WORK. As someone who benefits from the accountability and encouragement of a community, IronWolf has been exceptional. There are all ages, all body types, and even species (yay puppies!), all showing up to grow and challenge themselves. Can I tell you how inspiring it is to be outpaced by someone 20 years older than me? This is a come-as-you-are kind of place and I love it, and even when I don't feel like going, I want to go.
I’ve had a great experience training at Iron Wolf’s. Laura is welcoming, knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to individual needs. I feel supported, challenged at the right level, and encouraged to build strength safely. It’s motivating to train in a place that truly values health, longevity, and strength at every age. Highly recommend.
After 15 years of working with Laura, I continue to be impressed by her skill and professionalism. Whether it's training clients for high endurance events or helping them move and function at their best as they age, she brings all her considerable skills to the table.
Training with Laura has been a game‑changer. She has a rare ability to see potential in you long before you see it in yourself, and she knows exactly how to guide you toward goals you never thought you could reach. Her coaching is equal parts supportive, challenging, and deeply intentional — the kind of leadership that makes you want to show up and give your best every single time. Iron Wolf itself is spotless, well‑organized, and filled with a community that genuinely lifts each other up. The environment feels focused, encouraging, and welcoming, which makes pushing your limits feel not just possible, but exciting. If you’re looking for a coach who will help you achieve things you’ve never achieved before — and a gym that feels like a second home — Laura and Iron Wolf are unmatched.
