“I have been a multi-sport coach since 2001 and have trained hundreds of athletes for whom triathlon, running, biking, swimming, fitness and health must fit into very busy lives. My clientele includes lawyers, doctors, full time mothers, office workers, school teachers, nurses, and entrepreneurs – and every one of them has a jam packed schedule. My goal is to help each athlete strike a balance between training to their maximum potential and balancing all the various aspects of their lives, as well as to provide all the information they need to perform at their best and stay healthy and injury free. Over the years, my clients have done everything from complete their first 5k or sprint triathlon to qualify for the Boston Marathon and win age group awards in Ironman triathlons and National Championships in Jet Ski racing!

I achieved a master’s degree in Exercise Physiology so that I can provide the most current and accurate information and training strategies for my clients. I continuously look for opportunities to learn more about sports training, coaching and general fitness and health so that I may share this knowledge and expertise with my clients. I am truly passionate about coaching and living a healthy and athletic lifestyle.”

During those years, Jeanine learned many things about coaching and training.  One of the many things she learned was that everyone needs help achieving their individual fitness goals.  Whether you are working out to lose weight, gain emotional well-being, improve physical health, or maintain health, everyone needs help and support to succeed.  Fitness is not just for the elite.  Fitness is a way of life, and everyone needs motivation and encouragement to reach their individual goals. 

Jeanine loves working with people of all ages and fitness levels.  She combines muscle development, toning, cardiovascular fitness, core stability, balance, and flexibility altogether to provide a well-balanced plan that’s right for you.

Sophie St-Jacques: Co-Owner of The Fix

Originally from Montreal, a love for maple syrup and croissants runs deep, but the passion for cycling is what truly drives me. That love began in the late 80s with a fascination for the Tour de France. Growing up, two wheels were always the mode of transport, and that enthusiasm for bike racing led to travels across North America and Europe, including the Giro d’Italia.

Through competitive cycling, doors opened to incredible experiences, but a new passion soon emerged: human performance. As an Athletic Therapist, Reconditioning Specialist, and Sport Massage Therapist, the journey from athlete to working with professional cycling teams and the Canadian national teams brought opportunities to travel to numerous World Championships and Games. These experiences were deeply fulfilling, yet a desire to transform passion into purpose emerged—creating something truly inspiring and impactful.

The mission is clear: help others realize their potential and become Adventure Ready. With the right mindset and support, anything is possible. Every day is a chance to empower people—especially women—to trust their bodies, think big, and seize the opportunities that come their way. The goal is to inspire others to become the best and strongest versions of themselves, to embrace their own adventures, whatever they may be.

Larry Foss: Co-Owner of The Fix

In the late 80’s, Larry took his first step into the world of cycling with the purchase of a mountain bike, aiming to explore deeper into the woods for hunting. The very next day, an impromptu decision to enter a local MTB race sparked a lifelong passion for both cycling and human performance.

This newfound interest led to a deep dive into coaching, complemented by earning a massage therapist license to better understand athletes’ bodies. Just one day after graduating from massage therapy school, Larry found himself working with the Olympic Cycling Team, traveling the world and gaining invaluable experience along the way.

Throughout the years, Larry has immersed himself in every aspect of cycling, working with professional teams and the USA national team as both a soigneur and coach. His journey has taken him to multiple Olympics, World Championships, and World Cups.

In the early 2000s, The Fix Studio was born as a one-man operation. A short time later, a partnership with Sophie from Montreal brought the shared vision to life. Together, their mission has always been clear: to equip everyday athletes with the tools, knowledge, and support needed to achieve their cycling and life goals. Today, that mission remains the same, even as the studio has evolved into what is now Fix 2.0.

The move from Minnehaha has allowed a renewed focus on what truly matters: YOU, the everyday athlete. It’s also provided more time to reconnect with that first passion—riding bikes.

At The Fix, the goal is simple: to offer coaching expertise, provide guidance, and inspire athletes to tackle any event, goal, or race on the horizon. Let’s achieve greatness together.
