The Mission

Make training accessible for everyone

Getting in shape or maximizing fitness is hard, but tremendously worth the struggle.  
  • For "every day" athletes, our health is the central pillar that holds up everything else in our lives. Without it, we are all but worthless to ourself and others. 
  • For "sport specific" athletes, maximizing your athletic potential is one of the key factors for better performance and overall success in your sport. ​

Make training affordable for everyone 

In this case, affordable does not mean cheap, it means the product and service you are receiving is a great deal. If you don't believe me, check out the testimonials at the bottom of the Home Page.
Young aspiring athlete, elite athlete, or someone looking to find their inner athlete, this site is your opportunity to 
MAKE YOURSELF

Alysa Horn
As part tribute to every great coach and mentor who helped me to believe in myself and reach my dreams, my passion has changed from self-improvement for the sport I loved, to helping others achieve their health and/or athletic goals.  

I created this site for them, you, and anyone else who needs the extra push towards greatness. I am not only a personal and performance trainer, but also one of Alaska's premier basketball skill development trainers.

A little more about me

For the first 18 years of my life were spent growing up on an island in the Gulf of Alaska by the name of Kodiak.  You may have heard of it if you've seen The Guardian or The Deadliest Catch.  Here the sun doesn't shine too often, so naturally I fell in love with indoor activities, basketball being the greatest love of them all.  

​Eventually, the game gave me the opportunity to get a college education and play NCAA Division II basketball for the University of Alaska Anchorage.  After working relentlessly without any success my first two years on the roster, my coaches told me that I was just destined to be a bench player.  I was crushed, but not short of hope and determination to prove them wrong.  

​The summer going into my third year, I committed to transforming my body and game into top shape.  I returned the next season and earned a starting position and never looked back.  After graduating college, I played two years professionally in Germany, and one summer in Australia then returned to UAA to coach on staff as an assistant coach as well as personal trainer at a local gym. 

Meet your Registered Dietitian

​Kylie Burns
I was born and raised in Kansas City, Kansas. In August 2010, I packed my bags and headed north to the last frontier as a new member of the University of Alaska Women’s Basketball Team. What I thought would be a 4 year experience (granted I survive the first semester 3,000 miles from home), has turned into a 6 year adventure in which Alaska has now become my home.
 
During my high school and collegiate basketball career, I noticed the ‘legal advantage’ that optimal nutrition provided me. Injury prevention and increased strength, endurance, and focus are just a few examples of how healthier food choices impacted my performance as a student athlete.
 
Like most 18 year olds, I didn’t know what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. When I learned about the UAA Dietetics Program and what dietitians do, I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I graduated from the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA) with a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics, and completed the Dietetic Internship through UAA thereafter. 

Initially, I thought I would naturally be a sports dietitian; however, I am more interested in helping individuals of the general public achieve their nutrition and health-related goals.
