Mariah Thompson
Owner and Head Coach at Women In Strength Fitness

My life has been shaped around activity since I was 5, I participated in multiple sports, but competitive swimming was my main love and what truly kicked off my passion for health and fitness. Through swimming, I learned discipline, resilience, and how to be a part of something that was bigger than me. After my swimming career ended, I chose to pursue personal training and athletic training. Through college, I had the opportunity to work with a variety of sports teams and see them through their injury prevention and rehab. As much as I loved working with athletes and being in a team setting, my real love was found working with people individually. Shortly before graduating from UNH, I did an internship at GAIN Strength & Conditioning and quickly fell in love with that side of fitness. Over the years, I have worked with a wide variety of clients in a range of facilities. Those experiences led me to opening my own studio, where I’m able to work with awesome coaches and members to make a difference in their health and fitness. I wanted to create a space that women felt welcome, seen, and heard at all stages of their fitness and health journey. I strive to promote consistency and commitment to oneself and their goals, as well as grow a community of strong women.
