"With 30 years of coaching and teaching under her belt, Karen Ward is an extremely effective and inspiring fitness coach. She combines wisdom, professionalism and continuous study in the fitness/health field with an abundance of enthusiasm and creativity. Karen uses these ingredients to design individualized training 'recipes' for clients of all shapes, sizes, fitness, and skill levels."

"I have had the privilege of observing and participating in Karen's Group Fitness classes in Atlanta. She has a keen eye for biomechanics. Karen sees and gently corrects clients' improper movement patterns even in a class of 20! Her clients have fun doing their exercise classes, because Karen makes it fun. She is encouraging and upbeat. She obviously wants her clients to succeed in reaching their fitness goals, but wants them to enjoy the process."

"On a personal level, Karen designed my strength training routine, enabling me to finish 5th in the 1500m at the USATF Masters Track and Field Championships in 2007. At age 43 I ran my fastest 400m, 800m and 1500m times since high school, and I trained without injury. I attribute my power and good health to Karen's Running Specific Strength and Core Training routines."

"Finally, Karen models a fit lifestyle for her clients. She does all the workouts her clients do, plus trains for racing, cycling, and gymnastics."

"As a former collegiate track coach and licensed physical therapist, I highly recommend Karen Ward as a fitness coach." — Robin Judice, PT, USATF Level II Track Coach Lafayette, Louisiana

Testimonials from DFC Participants

Do you want to get fit and have serious fun while you are doing it? Karen Ward is the fitness trainer for you! I have been working out in Karen's fitness group for three years and don't plan to stop anytime soon.

I go to class each week not knowing what will happen next. Karen is constantly changing things up so we don't get bored and so she can try out her latest torture/training techniques. New equipment, new ideas, the latest research, interest in each individual student, Karen has it all! Our group laughs, moans, groans and complains. Karen takes it all in stride and pushes each individual to do all they can do and more.

I fondly think of her as The Little General because if she commands it, we do it and we are all the fitter for it.

Sometimes at night I worry about what I would do without her ... wait a minute. Can fitness training really be that much fun?Debbie Orlemanski

I have been working out with Dynamic Fitness and Karen since September 2003.  At first it was just a workout class to get in shape, but soon it became much more, like family.  Working out with a tight-knit group, helps you continue your goals to stay in shape, be healthy and love life!— Leslie A. White

I am a 48 year old fan of Karen Ward's seriously fun fitness program.  I discovered Karen's program in the winter of 2004 and have continued to pursue each new phase she introduces with great gusto!

I have participated in several fitness programs with coaches and trainers since 1981, I think I own every tape and DVD that has ever been produced for the fitness industry as well as owning many fitness machines.  In short, I have done it all!

No program or trainer has ever come close to delivering the results in record time like Karen Ward's seriously fun fitness program.  Within the first 12 weeks I lost almost 12 pounds. While eating in the same way I always had!   In six months my cholesterol not only went down, but the good cholesterol doubled! I finally was able to quit smoking - a habit I regularly enjoyed in the closet! I found out I could jump, hop on one leg, jump rope like a kid, and run farther than I ever imagined!

Every step of the way Karen has stayed by my side with encouraging words, discipline, and a sense of humor. Workouts change and progress, so students never have a chance to be bored!  Games are introduced regularly to keep the laughs going, and group outings are always offered to keep things fresh and morale high!

Seriously fun fitness offers results, fun, and new friends at great prices! I am proud to say I remain a non smoker, I have weighed the exact same healthy weight for four years, and doctors consistently marvel at my fitness levels!  With Karen as my example, I find myself looking forward to aging! Beverly Storey

I can always count on Karen to push me to my limit.  She creates the perfect combination of cardio and strength training while always being attentive to form.  I climb mountains for recreation and she has helped me develop the physical conditioning necessary to summit some of the highest mountains in the country.  I couldn't do it without her.  She has a great attitude and an incredible amount of fitness knowledge. Ted Regan

Even though I never enjoyed running, Karen encouraged me to get involved with her running and fitness group. After three years of sweat, I placed first in my age group in a local 5K race! It made me realize how far I'd come. All those intervals and core exercises made a big difference! Even when I don't want to get up to run and exercise with the group, I feel so good about myself when it's over. I'm having a great time, and I'm more fit than I've ever been before!— Dana Nichols

 I never thought that I could run a mile, but I just recently ran my first half marathon and training for my second.  Her program is amazing! You don't have to think about anything. She does all that for you. She has given me confidence that I can do anything I put my mind to.— Christina Clayton, age 23

Karen Ward gives new meaning to the idea of personal training. Even in a group setting she tailors the workouts to the needs of each individual. Whatever your level of fitness is - she will push you to new limits and beyond. I have been working out with her for over 13 years and her strength and cardiovascular training continues to evolve based on the latest research in the fitness industry. I am 54 years old and at my last physical my doctor told me whatever you are doing - keep doing it. Dynamic Fitness Concepts is a wonderful way to improve your fitness while having a lot of fun! — Anne McClearn

Karen's class has given me inspiration and motivation to never give up and to challenge myself mentally and physically.   — Nicky Fabiano, 15-year participant

It is easy to be seduced by quick-fix diets and faddish fitness routines. Last year alone people in the U.S. spent 6 billion dollars on such gimmicks. Karen's approach is the opposite. She provides realistic goals, sound advice, and constant encouragement. The hard work pays off, both physically and mentally. — Cathy Scott

I have been committed to Karen's Dynamic Fitness Concepts group training for the past 12 years.  During that time, I have never missed a class except for vacation and illness. It's been so great! It keeps me fit and keeps me going. You will not find a better instructor.  BEWARE - you will become addicted! — Lucy Daniels

At DFC, we teach you what it really takes to get fit and stay there.
