Episode #85: Empowering Fitness Journeys, From Member to Owner with Sandra Calkins

Welcome to the Get Healthy Tampa Bay Podcast with Dr. Kerry Reller! This week, I am joined by Sandra Calkins, owner of Burn Boot Camp locations in Palm Harbor and Largo. In this episode, we dive into Sandra's unique fitness journey from corporate America to gym owner, and how she's transforming lives through her passion for fitness and community. Sandra shares her personal transformation story, the importance of strength training, nutrition tips, and how Burn Boot Camp fosters a supportive community atmosphere. Tune in to learn how you can achieve your health goals with the right support and motivation.
Sandra Calkins is the Franchise Partner and owner of Burn Boot Camp Palm Harbor and Burn Boot Camp Largo. Her journey into fitness ownership began when she was a new mother seeking a workout space that offered child care. This led her to Burn Boot Camp, where she quickly advanced from member to trainer, and then to owner within two years. As she approaches the five-year anniversary of her Palm Harbor location, she celebrates transforming thousands of lives through not only the facility's efficient 45-minute workouts but also through nutritional guidance, child watch services, experienced trainers, and a supportive community atmosphere.
Sandra is enthusiastic about the potential to collaborate and enhance the health and wellness of the local community.
