"YOU ONLY GET ONE BODY, MAKE THE BEST OF IT"

MEET COACH TRUDY
My name is Ja’Niqua. Also known as Trudy!
Long story short my Dad wanted to name me Trudy.. Clearly mom didn’t agree. Haha.
I started my active journey at the young age of 4 as a ballet, jazz and tap dancer and continued throughout high school. I started playing softball at age 8, basketball age 9, and volleyball age 14. I received a full scholarship to play D1 college basketball.
Throughout my adolescence I never felt like I fit in physically. I was always the “big” girl, whether referencing my size or height. Not until college, did I start to feel comfortable and embrace my physical stature. Even then, at times I still did not feel like I fit in. Not fitting in was uncomfortable for me, it bothered me, but I still smiled on the outside, while battling on the inside.
“Am I pretty?”
“Why do I have to be the big one?”
Wanting to help others started in college. I enjoyed helping younger athletes during our basketball camps. Seeing the excitement on their faces while elevating their skills brought me joy. I started my coaching career senior year as an Assistant Basketball Coach, Head Basketball Coach(11yrs) and Personal Trainer/Basketball Skills Trainer.
My goal is to help others embrace themselves wholeheartedly, take what they were blessed with and enhance the imperfections. You only get one body, make the best of it. I’m here to bring out what is already inside!

I honestly didnt realize how much I needed this journey until I started with TruFITness By Trudy. At first it was tough showing up, but over time I saw not just physical changes in my appearance but in my mental growth too. I feel stronger, more confident, and more in control of my body and my life. And this journey is ongoing, I’m grateful to have a trainer that holds me accountable.

Trudy was the first Personal Trainer that I hired to help begin my fitness journey after nearly a decade of being sedentary. From my initial session with her, I knew that she would be perfect for guiding me along my path to achieving better physical health. In addition to being knowledgeable about which exercises would target the areas that I was most self-conscious about, she was also very personable. Our sessions were goal-focused (work was put in) but fun at the same time! Thats what you want in a Personal Trainer, so I would highly recommend Trudy to anyone looking for one!!

Working with TruFITness has truly been a life-changing experience for me. Over the past 6 months, she has been consistent, dedicated, and fully invested in my journey. Her encouragement and motivation never wavered--even on the days I felt like giving up, she pushed me to keep going.
What sets her apart is not just her training, but her full approach. Between her customized workout plans and detailed nutrition guides, she gave me everything I needed to succeed--and it shows. I’ve gone from 248 to 218, and I feel stronger, more confident, and more disciplined than ever.
If you’re looking for someone who genuienly cares, holds you accountable, and delivers real results, TruFITness is it. I’m so grateful for her guidance and can’t wait to see how much further I go with her by my side.

I just want to take a moment to show my appreciation for my trainer. I've been working with her for about four to five months now, and I can honestly say I've seen a dramatic change in myself. She has motivated me, pushed me past my limits, and helped me stay consistent on my health and fitness journey.
Not only has she helped me become healthier for myself, but also for my children and family. She truly cares about the people she trains and always wants the best for them. She's understanding, encouraging, and supportive, but baby, she does not play when it comes to those workouts!
One thing I also appreciate is that she works with families. As a family of six, her prices are great, and she makes fitness feel attainable for everyone. Out of all the trainers I've worked with, she's one of the best, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to make a real change in their life
