A Kick in The Pants

Specialties

A Kick in the Pants knows that weight loss and increased strength are important goals. But, frankly, they’re only part of the story. And only part of the success you’ll experience working with us. What matters most is how you feel when you’re fitter — and what you can do when you’re stronger. Your fitness impacts far more than your body. It touches your family, your community, your work and the entire world. That’s why we measure your success by more than pounds and inches, but by increased joy, vitality and the ability to live your passion and purpose through optimum health.

To be successful, your fitness program has to fit you. So, even in the group fitness setting, we offer personalized, non-​formulaic plans and support. We become a partner you can count on to keep you inspired and on track — 100% vested in your health, happiness & total transformation.

When you look at health and wellness the way we do, you can see why getting fit is possibly the most important thing you will do!

History

Established in 2003.

This business started in 2003 as strictly personal training. In 2004 Charm City Adventure Boot Camp was started to give ladies a comfortable place to work hard at getting healthy and in shape. It gives you the benefit of a personal trainer at a group rate. Boot Camp Lite came about a few years after to accommodate all fitness levels and ages. Wellness Coaching by Debra Berney followed to help those that need more support and motivation to reach their wellness goals. So in 2008 the name became

A Kick in the Pants to sum up all of the fitness/​wellness services that are provided by Debra and her associates. A Kick in the Pants can take you from Inspiration to Transformation!
