Certified Coach Susan Lozano

Coach Susan occasionally leads fitness classes at Summit Fit Dojo, as she is looking to learn the ropes of operating and running a professional fitness gym.

Fitness & Sports Background

Susan has been involved in sports and athletics all her life.  She grew up in a family that was constantly active and taught her the importance of physical activity and living a healthy lifestyle from the very start!

With a dance background starting at 3 years old, she later began to take an interest in softball from 5 years old, and just kept moving onto other activities as she grew up.

As a Colorado state basketball player and golfer throughout high school, she worked competitively to grow and reach her peak fitness level.

She also enjoys skiing, hiking, and swimming.

Susan was previously a Certified Life Guard and taught swim lessons to beginners for many years.  Susan has learned that healthy competition, not just with others, but competing against herself to continue to challenge her physical fitness is important, and fun!

Susan is CPR and First Aid Certified.  She is also a Certified Fighting Fit Boot Camp Coach and a Certified Fighting Fit Boot Camp Kettle Bell Coach.

She looks forward to helping you challenge yourself to reach your very own Summit!

Personal Life & Higher Education

Susan enjoys traveling the world and seeing various cultures.  There’s a lot to see in this world, and she truly believes staying active, healthy and physically fit will keep her traveling for many, many years to come!

Susan graduated with a B.S.B.A. in Marketing from Colorado State University – Ft. Collins in December 2002.

Fitness Program Director Lynn Voorhees

Lynn Voorhees is Summit Fit Dojo’s Fitness Program Director and a Certified Personal Trainer through AFAA.  She is also a Certified Sports Nutritionist through one of the leading sports and nutrition organizations in the country.  She has great deal of enthusiasm when leading group fitness classes, while trying to help all of her clients reach their fitness goals.

Fitness & Sports Background

A healthy lifestyle was not always the case for Lynn.  In fact, she struggled with weight issues for over 20 years.  However, she was able to win her “battle with the bulge” over time.  Was it easy….no it was not.  But with hard work, dedication to an effective workout routine, and a passion to learn and apply as much as possible about total mind and body wellness, she achieved her goal.

Lynn is passionate about helping others to do just the same. Being part of the journey of others to feel better about themselves and gain a stronger sense of self worth is her reward at the end of each day!

Personal Life & Higher Education

Lynn enjoys spending time with her husband Dave and son Sam.  Together they enjoy bike riding, hiking the beautiful Colorado mountain trails, and spending time together in the great outdoors.  She is an adrenaline junky that will try just about anything at least once.  What’s next on the list for Lynn?  It involves an airplane….and a parachute!
