Freddi Donner
Freddi has been in the business of helping people feel good since she was very young. She became interested in fitness and nutrition in high school, often using lunch hours to “work out” instead of sitting around talking. She was an aerobics instructor for five years teaching privately and at health clubs in the DC metro area. After her first child was born, she stepped up the level of interest and intensity, hiring a personal trainer and nutritionists to “get back into shape”.
After three children, three trainers, and absorbing health related information weekly, Freddi found her hobby and passion to be fitness and wellness. Losing both parents at early ages, she increased her study in nutrition and supplements and the relationship with health issues.
Freddi had a very successful career as a corporate marketing professional, and then, starting in 2004, as an executive coach. Through her coaching, health and wellness remains a constant theme with the understanding that one can not serve others well, if one can not care for self.
Freddi Donner purchased For Health and Balance in June of 2006 from Tiffany and Gary Blackden, the original owners of the practice. Through this practice, she is able to offer a complete program of wellness with bodywork, nutrition and coaching.
