Katharine Kafoury I am a Certified Online Trainer, Certified Nutrition Coach, Certified Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer, as well as the owner and founder of Kafoury Fitness.  Born and raised in Portland, OR, sports have been a part of my life since childhood. Health, fitness, and sports performance grew into a passion that I now share with others.

It’s rewarding to not only help people over 40 to feel, look, and perform better, but also to benefit and be enriched from their experiences as well. 

I compete in Sprint Triathlons in the summer months, where I have placed 1st in my age group and qualified for the 2013 Olympic Distance USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships. In addition, I compete in occasional road races throughout the year, where I have placed 1st in my age group and in the top 10 Overall Masters Females for Half Marathons. These experiences, as well as those gained from my other sports, have provided first-hand knowledge on proper sports training, as well as working with and rehabilitating sports and fitness injuries.

The people I train and coach chose me because I am committed to empowering them to improve their fitness, sports performance, and nutrition. Through proper training and sound nutrition, you can reach your goals, whether they are to achieve a healthier lifestyle or to train or excel in a specific sport or competition.
