Debra Berney - the Foot Behind the Kick

For someone only 5’ 6”, Debra Berney sure packs a big punch. And she does it with grace, kindness and a genuine empathy that is surprisingly hard to find in the fitness world. She cares deeply, supports fully and inspires daily. She is the gentle push that keeps you going when you’re about to give up.

She’s the gentle push that holds your focus when everything else seems more important than your own well-being.

She’s the gentle push that challenges you to take on just a little more than you think you can – and she’s the one who makes sure you make it.

Debra continues to challenge herself to act as an example. By doing her first figure program at 50+, stepping outside of her comfort zone (far outside!!) she hopes to show that age is not a limiting factor for attempting any goal, even if you or others think you're crazy to do it. Women 40, 50 and beyond are only getting started to make their mark on the world! So ladies, GO FOR IT!! Check out Debra's competition photos!

Debra’s mission is to help all people reach optimal health and to live fully with energy and passion – and to do it not only for themselves, but for the planet. Everything Debra creates is designed for that larger purpose and when you work with her, you’re part of it too – becoming A Kick in the Pants in your own right to everyone you know.

Debra’s been kicking people in the pants for over 15 years. She holds a M.S. degree in Community Health and is a certified instructor, personal trainer and wellness coach. She is also
a speaker and writer and looks forward to spreading the message that there’s more to fitness than fat and muscle – there’s actually heart and soul.
