Travis Laufle

Owner / Coach

Hi, I’m Travis, owner and coach at Legacy Training Club Detroit. I got my start in fitness over a decade ago when I reached a point in my life where I was no longer happy with the way I looked and felt. I stopped making excuses and got to work, leading to a 40lb weight loss journey followed by a pursuit in personal training. It wasn’t until I found Legacy Training Club Detroit though, first as a member then as a coach, that I truly decided to pursue the path of helping others. Now as owner of Legacy Training Club Detroit, I work tirelessly to foster Detroit’s best fitness community! I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate every single person that steps foot in our doors and gives us the opportunity to positively impact their lives.

Carter

Head Coach / Studio Manager

Hi, I’m Carter and fitness has always been a huge part of my life as I grew up playing baseball, soccer, football and then went on to play collegiate basketball. That is when I truly found my love & passion for fitness. For me, the gym is not only an outlet to release anxiety & stress, but also helps me create daily healthy habits and improve my mental health. Fitness teaches me to focus on being the best version of myself on a day to day basis. Having the privilege to coach a community full of hard working individuals and being able to impact their lives in a positive way through fitness is something I enjoy doing the most! I am so thrilled to be a part of the Legacy Training Club Detroit family and help every one of you reach their full potential. In my classes you can expect to be pushed to your limits, have fun, and good vibes! I love to teach strength training with a sprinkle of functional movements. Outside of the gym I love spending time with family & friends, watching sports, and going on adventures!

Paige

Coach / Community Development Manager

Hi I’m Paige! Fitness has always been a part of my life, as I’ve played sports for over 20 years. I ultimately decided to focus on swimming and went on to compete as a Division I swimmer at Western Kentucky University. After graduating, I realized I could train in different ways and really fell in love with working out. I love being able to be a part of a fitness community, coaching a group of people who work hard at the gym, and I truly thrive on coaching them as they reach and exceed their goals. In my classes you can expect a mix of high energy, a good challenge, and lots of fun! When I’m not at the gym I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, and exploring what Detroit has to offer. Can’t wait to see you at Legacy Training Club Detroit!

Mike

Coach

My health became a priority for me in 2015 while I was in pharmacy school. At the time I was almost 300 lbs and experiencing panic attacks. I had chosen a career in healthcare, but was not taking care of my own wellbeing. I decided to make a change. That year I lost 100lbs, and since then have developed a passion for teaching and sharing information about sustainable fitness and nutrition. My training focuses on functional strength and endurance mainly using kettlebells. I practice yoga regularly and enjoy running! The best thing about Legacy Training Club Detroit is whatever your goals are there is something for you. The gym has always been such a positive and safe space for me, I hope to bring the same energy for everyone training at Legacy Training Club Detroit!

Ari

Coach

I’m passionate about strength training and helping you feel strong, confident, and capable – inside and out. My journey started young, but things got real after an injury in high school and watching my grandmother struggle with mobility. That lit a fire in me to take fitness seriously and help others do the same.

With a degree in Exercise Science and nearly two years of coaching under my belt, I focus on building strong foundations, dialing in form, and keeping it fun while we push limits. I’m especially all about glutes, but I’ve got you covered from head to toe.

Whether you’re here to grow muscle, gain confidence, or just feel like your best self, I can’t wait to meet you and be part of your journey!

Joyce

Coach

As a former Division I athlete, fitness and athletics have always been an important part of my life. My experiences as both an athlete and coach have shaped my passion for helping others recognize their strength, build confidence, and create healthier lifestyles.

One of my primary goals is to help women and children become more active, confident, and comfortable in fitness and gym environments. I believe fitness should be welcoming and accessible, regardless of age, experience, or ability.

I am dedicated to helping individuals improve their overall health, fitness, and athletic performance through a personalized and purposeful approach to training. I specialize in women’s health and fitness, corrective exercise, mobility, injury prevention, strength and conditioning, and youth sports performance. My focus goes beyond simply completing a workout. I want my clients to understand their bodies, move better, become stronger, and develop sustainable habits that support their long-term health and wellness.

Kiah

Coach

Hi, I’m Kiah!

My fitness journey started three years ago when I decided it was finally time to prioritize myself. Before that, I played soccer at the collegiate and semi-professional level, but once I stepped away from the sport, I struggled to find structure in my training and nutrition. Like a lot of people, I tried generic coaches and plans that felt like the same recycled, one-size-fits-all programs.

Everything changed when I found a bodybuilding coach who listened to my goals and built a plan around them. For the first time, I learned how to break down movement, train with intention, and fuel my body with purpose.

That experience completely shifted my mindset around fitness, and it’s a big part of why I care so much about helping others find what works for them. My goal at Legacy Training Club is to help you find that same sweet spot: where challenge meets confidence, and where training starts to feel empowering instead of overwhelming.

In my sessions, you can expect a strong focus on foundations, understanding the “why” behind what we’re doing, and having a built-in cheerleader (me!) every step of the way.

Outside of Legacy, you can usually find me working on ceramics, playing soccer, or unsuccessfully trying not to adopt all the stray cats in my neighborhood.

Zina

Coach

With 15 years as an educator and a strong background in weightlifting, Zina brings intention, knowledge, and heart into every session. She believes committed training is about learning—together.

Rooted in community, Zina creates an environment where growth happens through shared wins, teamwork, and showing up for one another. Beyond group fitness, she’s coached soccer and basketball, bringing that team-first mentality into her programming.

When she’s not in the gym, you can find her biking through the city, on the dance floor, or documenting Detroit communities.

Train in a Space That Inspires You

Our 3,000 sq. ft. gym is designed for strength, conditioning, and high-performance training. We have a dedicated strength area with a six-stand rig for squats, bench presses, and pull-ups, plus a 50-ft turf zone for sled work and athletic training.

We also feature a private training space and a garage door that opens up for outdoor workouts in warmer months. For added convenience, we have a shower, single bathroom, and communal restrooms, as well as a drinking fountain in our shared space.
