Drive Coaching was founded on the idea of fitness for the woman who wants to make positive change in her life. 

 

Drive Coaching came from a desire to help women obtain challenging fitness goals while still allowing them to be present for their family, jobs, and friends. Drive programs are for the average woman who is aspiring to better herself; to make gains in health, fitness, attitude and overall quality of life.

 


 

Laura Felix, founder and coach of Drive Coaching earned her USAT and USATF coaching certifications at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO.  Laura has earned the reputation as the motivator and the energizer behind training amongst her peers who encouraged her to begin coaching.

 

 

 

Laura has an extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology gained from her Master’s Degree Education at Purdue University.  She is adept at tailoring programs to the individual and introducing “core components” that mix up training and make it fun!  Every athlete she coaches is covered in prayer and to date not one athlete has had a lasting injury!  That is a result of smart and safe training plans inspired by her knowledge, passion and faith!

 

 

 

Laura is a wife and mother of two small children, ages 5 and 3.  She is a very approachable, energetic and motivational person who will inspire you to dream and accomplish!  Her own children have embraced running as a way of life.  Her 5 year old enjoys being part of his first track club!
