Sarah Schlievert, owner 27|17 Wellness First and foremost, thank you for visiting the site! My name is Sarah, and I am the owner of 27|17 Wellness. I am an Active Life Professional Candidate (ALP-C), ACSM Certified Personal Trainer, School Yoga Institute Certified E-RYT 200 Hour Yoga Teacher, and a Level 2 Precision Nutrition Master Coach. This business, previously Shakti Fit, was born in August of 2013. I was a high school art teacher and coach for 8 1/2 years. I learned a ton as a teacher! And much of it transferred over to what I do now. About 5 years into teaching, fitness and nutrition started calling to me. |
So I took the leap. The year before I left teaching, I got my ACSM personal training certification.
The year after, I took advantage of the last summer months off of teaching and joined my sister-in-law, Jamie, in Guatemala for a one month, life changing experience. Here I received my Yoga certification, and made lasting friends and memories. In the meantime, I've earned a variety of different certificates in the fitness and nutrition industry, but the one I am MOST proud of, is the Active Life Professional education I'm working on now. Check them out!
Shakti Fit started out in downtown Mount Vernon on S. Main Street. After we outgrew that 3 story building, we moved to E. Gambier Street and filled three beautiful studios with training and yoga.
Today, you'll find me taking a more personal approach, training clients and educating people on nutrition.
No two clients have the same needs, and I take this fact into consideration with every workout and each nutrition plan that I program.
About the name change...
The past year or so, I've been looking for a name that better embodies my goals with this business. And after a year of pondering, it hit me! My favorite Proverb, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." This is the credo here at 27|17. And one I'm committed to fulfilling.
27|17 still represents the three pillars of wellness; nutrition, training, and yoga. But with more emphasis on community and growth in not only physical health, but mindset as well.
When you work with me, you become part of a strong community. One that lifts each other up, and builds together. One that supports you and makes you feel loved, and love yourself, in every stage of your health journey.
Shoot me an email if I can help you on your journey to wellness!
