You've spent decades taking care of everyone else. Now it's time to build a body that lets you keep doing what you love (hiking, traveling, keeping up with kids or grandkids)for decades to come. Through a holistic approach that honors your whole self, you can heal pain, build resilience and move with confidence at any age.
Pure Energy Wellness employs Knees-Over-Toes methodology (ATG) and specializing in helping women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond live stonger, healthier and happier.
Just take it from Suzie…
“I always felt intimidated in gyms and just wasn’t able to connect with the male trainers I’ve worked with in the past. Allison was different—she listened, met me where I was, and created a plan that actually worked for my body. I used to hike with constant knee pain from past surgeries. Now, in my sixties, I've hiked Mount Defiance and the Dolomites in Italy—completely pain-free. I finally found a trainer who gets it.”
Suzie K.
I hold a BS in Exercise Science from GA State University, and I’m a certified ATG Level 1 Coach and a CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Practitioner.
My Qualifications:
What is ATG?
ATG (Athletic Truth Group also known as Knees Over Toes) is a full-range-of-motion strength training method designed to restore and enhance joint function, mobility, and athletic performance. It’s fully scalable—meeting you exactly where you are, whether you’re training for sport or simply training for life.
By focusing on joint integrity, tendon and ligament health, and pain-free mobility, ATG helps you build resilience and strength from the ground up. The result? A more athletic, capable, and liberated body—so you can be the athlete you want to be and live the active, pain-free life you deserve.
Is This You?
A woman’s body after 40 or 50 plays by different rules—and no one gave you the handbook. Maybe the weight is settling in places it never did before. Or that knee, hip, or back pain is stealing your confidence on the trail, on the trip, on the floor with your grandkids. You've tried the classes, the gym, even physical therapy—but you're still waiting to feel like yourself again.
Here's the truth: it's not about doing more or being harder on yourself. It's about finally doing what's been overlooked—training the areas you've avoided, moving fully and freely, and building strength where your body needs it most.
That's how you reclaim stability, move without pain, and feel strong in this body—not the one you had at 30.

Here’s what my clients are saying!
I could barely walk when I first came to see Allison. I had pain and lots of swelling in my knee even after I'd completed physical therapy. Today I'm almost completely pain-free, moving with ease, and I can run up and down stairs effortlessly. Allison has shown me what's possible with the right support and the right kind of training!”

"Training with Allison has been a game-changer for us."
”We've had the pleasure of working with Allison for many years and have become noticeably stronger, healthier, and more mobile as a result. Our flexibility and mobility have improved significantly, and we feel better in our bodies every day.”
“One of the biggest transformations has been the strength and stability we’ve gained in our backs and knees. This has set us up for success during ski season—we enjoy skiing so much more now because our knees no longer hurt afterwards, and we feel significantly stronger on the slopes.
Allison’s workouts are thoughtfully personalized, always challenging, and never boring. She knows exactly how to push us in the best way possible. What sets her apart is her unwavering positivity, genuine encouragement, and deep care for our overall well-being—both physical and mental.
If you're ready to make a real change and want a coach who will support you every step of the way, look no further than Allison.”
-Shelly & Dave
"Feeling Stronger, More Energetic, and Excited to Move Again"
“Before training with Allison, I struggled with balance, had become quite sedentary, and felt anxious—especially about using certain equipment or doing movements I didn’t feel confident in.
Since working with Allison, I’ve noticed huge improvements. I feel much more stable during movements and far less anxious trying new workouts—even those involving equipment I hadn't used before. I’m beginning to regain my strength, and I feel more energetic overall with a growing desire to stay active.
This shift has changed my life. I’m moving more throughout the day, walking longer distances, and I feel stronger when handling everyday tasks like lifting heavier items. Most importantly, I feel more confident in my body and what it’s capable of.
Allison is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and encouraging. She adapts movements to my body and gives honest, positive feedback. Her supportive, kind presence makes every session feel safe and empowering.”
