Assistant Instructor:
Kathy

Kathy  Visser is a native to Washington and her interest in fitness began at a young age when she excelled in volleyball and softball.  However due to life circumstances and years of living a sedentary lifestyle, she gained over 60 pounds.   She began doing workout videos on her own and lost some of this weight.  Then she lost the motivation to work out on her own.   In July 2009, Kathy joined Eastside Adventure Bootcamp as a client.  Through the motivation and encouragement of Kimbrough as well as the other ladies in  bootcamp, Kathy has renewed her commitment to fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.  Having always disliked running, Kathy never thought she’d consider completing any type of runs but in October of 2009 at the age of 41, she completed her first 5K.  Since this time, she has participated in several 5K, 10K and 12K events.  Having experienced the benefits of bootcamp firsthand, Kathy was inspired to obtain her Personal Trainer Certification through NESTA and is instructor at the downtown Bellevue location.
