OUR MISSION

Coaching to educate and encourage.

Inspired by Coach Ericka’s own training journey and coaching experiences at several fitness facilities over the past 16 years, EDK Training was born with the mission to provide high level coaching and safe strength training to all students – no matter what age or skill level. At EDK, we value the importance of practice and honor an approach to exercise that promotes responsible progression and injury reduction. Our coaching and instruction philosophy encompasses the THREE E’s: Effectiveness, Efficiency and Excellence – while encouraging a positive and casual learning environment. Whether you are in a Virtual Class, an Individual Remote Session or In-Person Training, we believe in simplified programming to encourage productive and positive training outcomes. We are serious about strength, but we love to have fun in the process…this is the heart of EDK.

Create your system for change.

EDK strives to empower all students to prioritize their strength – both mentally and physically. It is a deeply rewarding investment to spend your time, energy and dollars on your personal health and wellness endeavors. EDK Training promotes the confidence and resilience that lies within you to make healthy lifestyle changes, while building functional strength along the way. We have helped hundreds of students create new fitness habits, which reinforces a system for success.

earn Your strength AND break boundaries once thought impossible.

EDK is the home of the “Bell Boss” (#bellboss) and we take immense pride in cultivating a strong training community. We focus on sustainable and proven training methods that effectively guide each student through their own individual fitness journey. We believe in a “tough love” approach that enriches the dedication and commitment required to achieve desired change at a practical pace. As ambassadors of our EDK Mission, we avoid burn–out, trust the process and support each other every step of the way. Our coaches and students are a team.
