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

“Jocelyn is an amazing trainer and motivator! Last year I worked one on with her during personal training sessions. I am a runner and was looking for strength training to improve my running. She gave me really tough workouts that I could use at the gym or at home.

I have also been going to her booty boot camp outdoor workouts and love them!! Jocelyn is patient, gives clear instruction, and makes the workouts fun! Her workouts are never boring and are appropriate for newbies and advanced athletes. I have finally found a strength training routine that I enjoy, and that doesn’t require that I sit at machines in the gym. I highly recommend Jocelyn’s workouts to anyone wanting to get fit!”

“I have been training with Jocelyn since April of 2012. The workouts she creates for me have aided in my goals to improve my overall strength and tone my body. I love that the workouts are busy schedule friendly, they can be done in thirty minutes or less. Plus, they’ve allowed room for growth as I’ve gotten stronger. I appreciate that Jocelyn will answer my questions outside of my training sessions and her blog is full of helpful tips, like how to set S.M.A.R.T. goals. Jocelyn’s workouts are hard, but her approachable and caring personality makes up for it.”

“I am 29 and I have been working out with Jocelyn for the last five years, four of which, she has been my personal trainer. For the firstyear, I attended her regular classes at the local gym and fell in love with her enthusiasm, teaching approach and positive energy. Some time later, I came to the realization that I needed that extra push and one-on-one time to reach my health goals – improve my strength and lose 15 pounds. That is how Jocelyn became my personal trainer. In one year, she helped me reach my best shape ever! I slimmed down and push-ups felt super easy. Jocelyn also guided me through the most physically challenging period of my life – pregnancy and postpartum. Together we pushed through days of fatigue, aching back, and tired knees and feet. I felt very fortunate to have Jocelyn there to cheer me up and customize every workout. Each exercise was beneficial and at the same time gentle on my body. I highly recommend Jocelyn as a personal trainer to everyone! She will create a fitness plan exclusively for you and will push you to reach your personal best.”
