Personal Training with Kara

Hi! My name is Kara!

I am the owner and founder of Primal Fit!  Originally from Farmington, CT, I’ve lived in Tennessee, Colorado, and Montreal before returning to Connecticut in 2016. I’m a pilot wife, dog mom, and coffee lover, and you’ll likely meet my dogs at the gym!

My fitness journey began after college in Colorado when I joined intense boot camps that improved both my strength and mental health. As someone who worked in mental health and special education, fitness became my self-care, a way to decompress from long, stressful days.

In 2016, I discovered The Yoga Shop, where I completed my 200hr and 300hr Yoga Teacher Training and became a RYT 500 hr. I’ve been teaching there since 2018 and am so grateful for the community.

To diversify my routine, I started boxing and strength training in 2019, eventually teaching classes like YogaBox, kickboxing, and strength conditioning. I also became a NASM-certified personal trainer (CPT) and Nutrition Coach, working at the Hartford Golf Club in 2020.

Fitness is essential for both physical and mental well-being, and I wanted to make personal training accessible to everyone. That’s why I founded Primal Fit—to offer affordable, effective training.

Primal Fit is raw and authentic. No bells and whistles, just you and your innate ability to push limits!

BOOK YOUR SESSION

At Primal Fit, training isn’t one-size-fits-all.
This is your space to move with purpose — whether you're stepping into your first session or showing up for the hundredth time.
Choose your session, show up as you are, and let’s do the work — together.

Kara is the best! I have been going to Primal Fit for about a year. I love the consistency my training sessions provide me with. I feel a big improvement in my strength since starting. Overall I look and feel better. And, PSA to all you ladies, if you aren't strength training already, start! Better yet, start with Kara. Highly recommend!
