Vanessa Raymond (Owner, Master Coach)
Vanessa has always had a passion for movement and has a deep appreciation for good physical conditioning of the body. She grew up as a dancer and successfully accomplished her dream to work as a professional dancer, actress and singer after a life time of studying various dance forms and graduating with a degree in Musical Theater.
Vanessa’s studies included anatomy, physiology, creative movement, dance, acting and singing amongst others.
Vanessa acquired her DK Body Balance Pilates Certification at UNLV in 2004. After teaching Pilates full time for several years she went on to do her Kettlebell certification in 2006. She has also attended various Kettlebell workshops with Kettlebell industry leaders and educators.
Vanessa has always enjoyed sharing with others her passion for movement which drove her to become an educator in the fitness industry. She grew up in the gym environment as her father was a professional body builder and IFBB judge providing her expert knowledge and experience from a young age.
Over the last 6 years Vanessa has created her own fitness brand which includes KFIT USA Kettlebell Certifications and The Victory Factor – Personal and Professional Victory for women and men. She now currently owns her own Fitness education company (VeeRay Enterprises) and works as a Pilate’s instructor, personal trainer, and group exercise coach and fitness motivator. She also works with a lot of post-rehabilitation clients who suffers from a wide range of injuries to help them recover and regain better quality of life.
KFIT USA is the latest addition to Vanessa’s ventures in the Education and Fitness world. KFIT USA is a Kettlebell Education Program for all fitness professionals who want to teach a safe and accessible method of Kettlebell Training to their clients. Vanessa has spent 6 years developing the curriculum and programming that has gained national and industry recognition. KFIT USA offers Continuing Education Credits and is quickly becoming one of the most sought after kettlebell programs in the industry.
“We are creating Master Trainers all over the USA and will be going international in 2014 says, Vanessa Raymond.”
Additionally Vanessa is also a Certified Massage Therapist, Aesthetician and Cosmetologist.
Vanessa expanded her knowledge in the performance industry, health and beauty industry and working with fitness clients for many years and transformed it into a seminar series that is specifically targeted towards improving self-confidence in others as she saw a huge demand. Vanessa believes that building a better self-image through both the body and the mind teaches us to harness the all-round quality of life. Vanessa has a passion for helping others and looks forward to reaching out to people from all walks of life.

After finally getting a restoration of her heart and a love for herself, she has devoted her life to helping women and girls drop their body baggage and embrace their unique beauty and strength too. She started Restoration Fitness in 2007 to build body confidence in others and to inspire them to live with soul.
Nicole is no stranger to the rigors of personal health, as an accomplished runner, she competed as a Division I athlete with the University of Iowa in cross-country and track and field and has completed multiple marathons including the Boston Marathon. She also completed the Chicago triathlon and continues to enjoy anything active including weight training, hiking, and chasing after her twin boys, Liam and Emmett.
For over fifteen years, Nicole has provided sports medicine/rehabilitation, sports performance, personal training, and group exercise to clients, bringing a wealth of experience and knowledge gleaned from years of practice in medical and therapeutic health settings.
