💙 Meet the Heart Behind Strong Bayside 💙
If you've trained with us, chances are you've been coached, encouraged, and inspired by our Head Coach and Owner, Leora Yates.
Leora founded Strong Bayside with a simple mission: to help everyday people become stronger, healthier, and more confident through strength training in a supportive community environment.
With years of experience in the fitness industry, Leora is passionate about helping members of all ages and fitness levels discover what they're capable of. Whether it's guiding someone through their very first workout, helping a member regain strength and confidence, or supporting clients to achieve goals they never thought possible, Leora is committed to making every person feel welcome and supported.
What makes Strong Bayside different isn't just the training programs—it's the genuine care, encouragement, and community that Leora has built from the ground up.
When she's not coaching sessions, you'll find her planning new challenges, supporting members behind the scenes, and constantly looking for ways to make Strong Bayside the best place to train.
Thank you, Leora, for your passion, dedication, and commitment to helping our community become stronger every day. 💪
