The Team
Katie and Shane Condron
Owners
Katie and Shane first met at Rutgers where they were both pursuing degrees in Exercise Science and Sports Studies. After graduating with their respective degrees, they dove head first into the field of Personal Training gathering the knowledge and experience needed to become masters in the field. In 2012 Katie and Shane decided it was finally time to create a fun environment that offered the highest level of programming and coaching for clients of all levels, and opened Fitness Inc Training Studios.
