Alex Smith

Founder / Master Personal Trainer

My name is Alex Smith, I am a certified personal trainer through the nationally accredited American Council on Exercise, and a graduate from Northern Arizona University, where I studied Health Psychology, Biology, Exercise Science, and Nutritional Science. My enthusiasm for general health and wellbeing began back when I was just a boy participating in every sport I could sign up for. During high school I ran cross country, and played lacrosse, football, tennis, and volleyball. I have been helping family members and friends attain their health fitness goals since I was twelve years old, and have been training the public for over ten years now. In 2008 I started my own business, At Your Door Personal Training, LLC and my main focuses have been In-Home Personal Training, Skype/Facetime Personal Training, Online Boot Camps, and Online Program Writing.

I feel that exercise should be an exciting event and people should not dread going to the gym, which is why I chose to bring the “gym” to my clients. I like to keep my clients healthy and happy by implementing the latest research in the fitness world mixed with enjoyable exercise techniques that will keep their bodies constantly guessing and improving. People will stay motivated as long as they are enjoying their exercise regimen, and I always ensure that my clients are motivated. I continue my education on exercise and health daily by reading the latest research and fitness news. I also remain active in the gym and the sports community by exercising 7 days a week whether I am strength training, running, or playing lacrosse, volleyball, or tennis.

Kelsey Jackson

Master Yoga Instuctor

Kelsey Jackson was born and raised in Arizona. Kelsey was a trained figure skater, gymnast and dancer and fell in love with performing. She has been a figure skating coach, gymnast coach and dance teacher. After having her first son in 2017 she found a new passion, Yoga. “Movement has always been something my body and mind craves. Yoga has given me a new outlet to express my creativity, strengthen my body and live a healthier life style. It truly has changed my entire life, actually it gave me my life back.” Kelsey has spent the last year obtaining every certification she could. Kelsey is a 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher and certified in various formats including Buti Yoga, Buti Sculpt and Hot core. She wants to continue her journey and get certified in prenatal yoga, yin yoga, and deep by Buti as well as planning on taking another 200-hour RYT training course at the end of 2018.

Life is busy, and sometimes taking care of your body and mind gets pushed to the side as it may seem less important than all the other tasks we must do in a day, especially those of us that have children. It took me along time to learn that I can only help others if I’m taking care of myself as well. It’s my passion to help others find a safe place to just be themselves, let go of all the stress, and do something an hour a day to clear the mind and focus on feeling better physically emotionally and mentally.  Buti Yoga has transformed me from the inside out; it has given me confidence and love for myself that I can now share with others. It has allowed me to connect and give. It has decreased depression and anxiety and I have learned so much about myself through Yoga. It really has become my “soulmate workout” and I want others to fall in love with themselves and with this practice too. Vinyasa is the foundation and the base. It is with yoga we move with breath, intention and meaning. We speak through our bodies…or better yet, our bodies speak to us. It is more than just a “workout” or a hobby. It is passion, it is purpose, and it is connection. Yoga is movement and it is through movement we work through all that “stuff” that has been holding us back. The stuff that allows us to think we aren’t good enough, or that we never will be good enough. We move through our struggles and even through our successes. This is where WE LIVE, where WE BREATHE, where WE CONNECT! Not only with ourselves but with the ones around us! I am honored to share this magical experience with others and guide you through your own unique journey.

Shelbie Family Bio Pic Shelbie New

Shelbie Kite

Master Personal Trainer

Shelbie Kite was born and raised in Texas but lived in Hawaii for a large part of her life before moving here to Arizona. Growing up she was very active and in a range of sports, such as volleyball, softball, track, cheerleading, and basketball. She was a hair stylist in San Antonio for 3 years, which had been Shelbie’s passion the majority of her adult life. She loved seeing the expressions on peoples’ faces after a complete transformation. However, when she was offered the opportunity to move to Hawaii, she jumped on it instantly.

It was in Hawaii that her passion began to shift to health and fitness. During her time there she took full advantage of the island and focused on her own personal fitness doing sand workouts and venturing on hikes as much as possible, as well as frequently going to the gym. While at the gym she found herself always offering to coach other people to reach their fitness goals. She quickly realized that she was able to help people achieve a new level of transformation, physically and mentally, and again, she loved that same expression of gratitude and amazement that she used to strive for while being a hair stylist.

Helping others at the gym paid off and they eventually offered Shelbie a scholarship to get certified as a Personal Trainer. Shortly after getting her certification she took a leap of faith and moved her life out to Arizona to grow her family and business. With a lifetime of experience in athletics and the gym Shelbie has truly learned how to get efficient results in working out, ranging from strength training to band exercises to HIIT workouts. She sincerely believes health and fitness are the key to leading a great lifestyle and aspires to help others grow and reach any and all of their fitness goals.
