ABOUT

About The Business

Shine Fitness Training was created to offer a more thoughtful, personalized approach to health and movement, one that meets people where they are and supports long-term well-being, not quick fixes.

Founded by Samantha Gibson, Shine Fitness Training focuses on helping clients build strength, confidence, and ease in their bodies through intentional, sustainable training. The goal is simple: to make fitness feel supportive, empowering, and realistic, rather than overwhelming or intimidating.

With a background in kinesiology and exercise science, Samantha brings an evidence-based approach to training that emphasizes mobility, functional strength, and whole-body wellness. Each program is tailored to the individual, recognizing that no two bodies, lifestyles, or goals are the same.

Originally launched in 2021 as a response to the need for flexible, high-quality training outside of traditional gym environments, Shine Fitness Training has continued to grow while staying rooted in its core values: personalized care, intelligent movement, and long-term health.

Now based in Tampa, Florida, Shine Fitness Training works with both in-person and virtual clients, offering a calm, supportive space for those looking to move better, feel stronger, and build a healthier relationship with their body.

Learn About the Founder of Shine Fitness Training

Hello!

My Name is Samantha, and I’m the founder and trainer behind Shine Fitness Training LLC.

I created Shine to offer a more thoughtful, supportive approach to fitness, one that focuses on long-term health, confidence, and sustainability rather than extremes or quick fixes.

I have a background in kinesiology and exercise science, and my training style is rooted in helping people move better, feel stronger, and understand their bodies. I believe fitness should support your life, not overwhelm it. Whether you’re brand new to training, returning after time away, or looking for a calmer and more intentional approach, my goal is to meet you where you are and build a plan that feels realistic and empowering.

I work collaboratively with my clients, focusing on functional strength, mobility, and education so you feel confident not just during sessions, but in everyday movement. No two bodies are the same, and I tailor each program to reflect your individual needs, goals, and lifestyle.

If you’re looking for a trainer who prioritizes consistency, care, and long-term progress in a welcoming, judgment-free environment, I’d love to work with you.
