Meet Our People
The people of Adaptive Performance Center truly make the workout experience fun, enjoyable, and meaningful. It starts with the founders, Karen Pearson and Mitch Crouse, and the “difference-maker” persona trickles down to the helpful, approachable staff and volunteers. The impact of our community is felt by everyone who walks in the doors. Our vibe is different because our community is different and we embrace that unique character. Because it is a place that commands respect and encouragement, we are committed to make what seems impossible possible, eliminating veteran suicide and that starts with the faces our members see on a daily basis.

Our Clients Believe in Us
Here Is What They Are Saying
"When I was introduced to Karen & Mitch, I was a bit lacking in the physical fitness department due to my lack of effort. But with a bit of motivation from both of them, I found myself enjoying building myself up as I had neglected to do so by myself. They are great personal trainers, and lovely individuals. They have a whole lot of personality and are two people worth knowing. Both Karen and Mitch have two huge hearts, with which they stay motivated and constantly on the go, which anyone who knows them will probably attest to. As a team, they offer a hand up in improving yourself and keeping you on track."
