I spent years dreaming about this life. Then I decided to just start living it. And I want the same for you
I spent years dreaming about this life. Then I decided to just start living it. And I want the same for you
I spent my career helping people live well. As a gerontologist, I worked with Life Plan Communities building whole-person wellness programs. As a certified personal trainer, I've led classes from Atlanta to Belize to the high-altitude streets of San Miguel de Allende. As a Master Naturalist, I've always believed the best classroom is outside, with your feet on real ground.
In 2018, I founded Lisa Kiely Fitness & Travel. The idea was simple: get strong enough to go anywhere. Then go.
I built Train to Travel™ because I noticed something. The people who had the most incredible travel experiences weren't the ones with the most money or the most free time. They were the ones whose bodies were ready. They could walk farther, climb higher, breathe easier, and show up fully — because they had prepared.
I want that for everyone I work with. And I want to be there when they arrive.
Here is a little more about my professional life:
As a Gerontologist, I worked with Lenbrook and Park Springs, both (Senior Living) Life-Plan Communities , and consulted on Community Life Services and Whole-Person Wellness programs for Life Care Services (LCS). I also served as the Associate Executive Director of the Cowart Family YMCA.
In 2018, I Founded Monarch Collaborations, Lisa Kiely Consulting, and Lisa Kiely Fitness. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in drawing and painting and a Minor in Gerontology. I’m a Certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor, Certified Activity Director, Certified Eden at Home Associate, Certified Master Naturalist and I hold a Certificate of Leadership in Wellness Management through ICAA.

"Our fearless magic-maker leader, Lisa Kiely is a-m-a-z-i-n-g. She leads a never-boring fitness class to get you stronger and get you moving in a REALLY smart way that attends to the needs of 40+ year old bodies…you should check this out. I was getting hip injuries, pulling my upper back, etc….but since committing to Lisa’s class, not only have I avoided injuries, I can see such a difference in my balance, core, strength, and posture. I love her approachable, convenient, disciplined, FUN, advanced workout. It's truly been a major sanity saver for me (and my spouse!)"
