program Coordinator Intern, Total Well-Being

Peggy Green is president and owner of Whole Body Fitness, in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. She is a Licensed Wellness Coach from Wellcoaches Corporation and a Certified Health and Fitness Instructor from the American College of Sports Medicine. Her desire is to transform women’s lives by helping them solve problems. She is a Colorado native who enjoys golf, gardening and riding her bike. She received her Bachelor’s of Science in Business Marketing in 1984 from the University of Colorado at Denver. Following graduation, she entered the corporate world, working in customer service and sales, eventually stepping out of the business environment to raise her family. As the children grew, she longed to return to work, however it needed to be flexible and something she took pleasure in doing. This brought her back to what she enjoyed all her life: exercise. She realized the benefits of being active: reduced risk of diabetes, cancer, hypertension and heart disease. In addition she kept off undesired weight and was able to maintain her quality of life. She loved to help women with improving and maintaining their physical fitness and decided to do this through personal training. Wanting the best education, she returned to college for a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science Adult Fitness. Although it was very challenging attending class and raising three children, she persevered and graduated in 2007 from Metropolitan State College in Denver. She believes that physical health cannot be reached with exercise alone but wasn’t sure how to help her clients get past their roadblocks. While attending Metropolitan State College, she found the answer to her dilemma: Wellness Coaching. Generally coaching takes place over the phone, uses wellness visions, and goal setting to help clients achieve life-long behavior modifications in areas of weight loss, smoking cessation, nutrition, stress reduction, exercise and life balance. Peggy’s life long dream of owning a business became a reality and Whole Body Fitness was born in 2008. She now helps clients reach their ideal self in health and wellness through Wellness Coaching and Personal Training.
