About Hyatt Strength + Wellness
Hyatt Strength + Wellness is owned and operated by husband-wife team Jeremy Hyatt and Lee Carson. They bring 30+ years of professional experience to Hyatt Strength + Wellness and are dedicated to creating the best Portland personal training gym.
Jeremy and Lee created Hyatt Strength + Wellness (previoulsy Hyatt Training) because they believed whole-heartedly that one-on-one personal training is the best way to get the most out of your workout time. They opened in 2011, and it’s been at its current location in the Fitzgibbons Glass building since August 2017.
Jeremy leads Hyatt Strength + Wellness on the health and fitness front. He has 21 years of experience working one-on-one with clients. He holds a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) credential, which is considered to be the gold standard certification in personal training. His specialties are assessing client needs and keeping workouts varied, effective and interesting. These specialties shine through in his client retention rates—his average client has worked with him for 6+ years and several for more than a decade. During his 21-year tenure in Portland, he’s built a strong community of like-minded fitness enthusiasts. A natural educator, Jeremy has a bachelor’s degree in education and a master’s degree in kinesiology.
Lee leads the business side of Hyatt Strength + Wellness, using the marketing, strategic planning and project management skills she honed during her 12-year career in the nonprofit sector. Prior to Hyatt Strength + Wellness, Lee held leadership positions at three nonprofits. She is particularly adept at assessing needs, creating strategic direction and implementing her plan for results. A yoga teacher since 2008, Lee applies the high standards learned in the business world to fitness. She understands both the applicable parts of running a business and the skills and passion required to serve her clients on their health and wellness journey. She earned a double major in international business and psychology from Washington University in St. Louis.
Jeremy and Lee are passionate about creating an environment where both clients and trainers thrive. For clients this means superior customer service, utmost cleanliness and unparalleled attention to detail. For Hyatt Strength + Wellness personal trainers, this means being a flat out awesome place to work including a beautiful gym, top-notch equipment, reimbursement for continuing education and tons of support including a career-track trainer program providing fully funded health insurance, paid time off and 401K matching. This passion is the foundation of the thriving Hyatt Strength + Wellness community.
