Dawn Anderson – Owner

As Co-Owner and Operations Manager, I oversee the day-to-day management of the gym. I put a large focus on member experience, safety and continuity. I am dedicated to making sure Sand and Steel is a place where our members and coaches, feel strong, confident, and empowered in their lives and their bodies. During my sessions I pull from over 12 years of experience working with clients, and over 20 certifications to help members become healthier and stronger. Members who book with me one-on-one can expect to do work that will strengthen the posterior chain and core. In my sessions, I work total body with an emphasis on the back, abdominals, glutes, hips, ankles and feet.
