Lacey VandeBunte
Owner + Head Coach
Hi, I’m Lacey. My path into fitness started outside during a semester with NOLS Outdoor Education. That experience taught me that strength and resilience aren’t just about what you can do in a gym, they’re what let you explore farther, recover faster, and enjoy the outdoors more fully.
Since then, I’ve spent over ten years coaching and learning, always chasing ways to help people move better and feel stronger in their lives. Along the way I’ve earned certifications in everything from nutrition and mobility to weightlifting, CrossFit, and therapeutic recreation. But what matters most to me is making training approachable and personal. Building programs that actually fit into busy lives and outdoor goals.
I’ve called Teton Valley home for more than six years, and like a lot of my clients, I feel most alive in the mountains. You’ll often find me snowboarding in the backcountry, biking singletrack, or hiking with friends. Those passions shape the way I coach: training isn’t about checking boxes, it’s about fueling the adventures you want to have.
My goal is simple… to meet you where you’re at, help you feel confident in your body, and give you the tools to keep saying yes to new challenges.
