PDXstrength started as an outdoor bootcamp in Cathedral park. I saw a gap that needed to be filled, and wanted to build a class based fitness studio that provided a place to build healthy relationships with our bodies and fitness. As the cold weather approached every fall, our participants begged to find a warm indoor space to keep the party going! Established in 2012, PDXStrength has quickly become one of the top rated gyms in Portland, OR! PDXstrength is woman owned small business that’s an inclusive and safe space for the St. Johns community to workout. We strive to deliver only the best to our clients in terms of Classes, Personal Training, Nutritional Advice and of course a fun experience! PDXstrength is a positive and welcoming community. We are an anti- diet culture gym that believes fitness is for EVERYBODY! We get asked if we are a Crossfit gym, and we are NOT. Come join us, learn, get strong, socialize and have a blast!

Client Testimonials
“I’ve been training with Jocelyn for a few months now and i just love her! I’ve been a member at westcoast fitness where she teaches classes and trains for the past 2 years. The first time I took her class “strength and stamina” I was amazed! First by how hard it was and how out of shape I was, but also by her enthusiasm. She really kicked our butts! In a good way! She modifies things to accommodate injuries or for your level of fitness and also shows you how to make things more challenging. I finally decided to look into training with her privately and found that she was super affordable. She develops workouts based around your goals and emails them to you afterward. She’s always available for questions and doesn’t mind when I ask her to show me an exercise 10 times because I can’t seem to get it.
I meet with her weekly, but she gives me that drive and motivation to go to the gym. I finally have a purpose other then the elliptical! She has shown me easy workouts that I can do alone ( not all at the gym as I have a son and sometimes need to work out at home) in as little as 30 min! I broke my toe and was unable to do much for a while but she showed me workouts I could do that were low impact on my foot. She’s awesome and I’d recommend her to anyone! I finally feel like I know what to do to change my body and how to become a stronger more fit version of myself.
She’s awesome!!”
“I love love love Jocelyn. She always keeps the classes fun and challenging. I have on more than one occasion seen her show up early and stay late to make sure everyone knows how to use the equipment (bikes fitting right for spin class, modifications for injuries etc. ) and makes it very comfortable for people to ask her questions. She truly wants people to enjoy their workout and get something out of it. Her music is a blast and she is always asking for suggestions. She really does her homework and comes in prepared. She switches things up a lot so that you don’t get bored in fact last night in her Jump Rope class she said ” we are almost done” and I was shocked that there was only 5 minutes left, it felt like we had only been in there for 5 minutes. She is a blast to take classes from and is the reason I continue to return to the gym. She always has great suggestions on how to keep healthy without it being daunting she gave me a heads up on organic veggies being on sale at the grocery store and in my opinion she makes working out “cool” Go Jocelyn!!!!”
“I am having a wonderful experience working with Jocelyn. I am working hard and her knowledge and support of my strength challenges and abilities are always a part of our weekly sessions. I am seeing remarkable results in my self esteem, I would highly recommend having Jocelyn as a personal trainer.”
