Meet Your New Biggest Fans

Hey! We’re Mike and Jess,

Co-Captains of the Valeo ship.

Here’s a little about our crew…

“Vuh-lay-oh” is a Latin word and means "have strength, have power, be effective."

What started as a personal training idea in Jess’ apartment back in 2006 has now grown into a gym that’s left hundreds in the Holland-area healthier, stronger, and (even more) awesome.

We have a set of “Valeo Values” that guide us as we lead, educate, and steward our community.

One of these Valeo Values as a team is “constantly learn, always improve" and we take pride in our ongoing professional education.

Aside from having degrees in the Exercise and Health Sciences fields, we have certifications from the top organizations in our industry covering:

StrongFirst Barbell
StrongFirst Kettlebell
Ultimate Sandbag
Functional Movement Systems
Selective Functional Movement Assessment

We are also honored to:

be invited to teach at StrongFirst certification courses
receive mentorship from one of the Top Ten Gyms in the country
and be a place where local coaches from other gyms seek us out for their own training

When it comes to exercise and nutrition, you’ll find us at the forefront of research and 'trends' well before they become popular. We work hard to stay ahead of the curve so our members have the greatest success at looking, moving, and feeling (even more) awesome.

If you’re ready to move forward in your health and discover your inner athlete, let’s chat.
