Meet Your Coach - Jennifer Melchert
Sustainable fitness
As a HYROX athlete, I know the demands of performance-oriented training from my own experience - both physically and mentally. My aim is to help people improve their fitness in the long term or achieve specific sporting goals, such as successfully taking part in a HYROX competition - with coaching that is realistic, structured and compatible with everyday life.
I am the founder and head coach of the Performance Training Studio ValleyONE in Kemptthal.
Background & Qualification
I'm Jennifer - passionate coach and founder of Coach Jennifer and Valley One. My academic career took me to the University of Heidelberg, Illinois College and the University of Zurich (LL.M. International Economic & Business Law).
After several years in the legal and business environment, I have consciously combined my professional experience with my greatest passion: Helping people to lead a more active, healthier and self-determined life. I started out as a part-time group fitness instructor at various gyms, teaching indoor cycling (ICG), jumping fitness, Pilates, bungee fit and various Les Mills programs.
Then I was Head of Group Fitness at a large fitness chain for a long time, during which time I was responsible for all gyms in German-speaking Switzerland and was the contact person for around 180 group fitness instructors. I optimized processes and set up and trained course programs. Now I work independently as a certified fitness and nutrition trainer, personal trainer and HYROX Performance Coach - holistic, data-based and suitable for everyday use. My personal HYROX best time is 1:21. I also regularly take part in half marathons and trail running events.
