Meet the Founder

Amber Conner-B.S Kinesiology and Health Promotion, PTA, CPT,FKT

Hi There!

My name is Amber, and I am the founder and creator of Monarch. What started as a passion project in my bedroom, while studying to become a Physical Therapist Assistant, has since grown into a mission to help others unlock their full potential through movement. My journey began as a classically trained dancer, but I always knew my deeper purpose was to serve and empower others.

At 17, I discovered my love for fitness, and from that point on, I immersed myself in a variety of movement practices—Resistance Training, Yoga, Pilates, TRX Suspension Training, Boxing—anything that allowed me to explore the endless possibilities of the body. I’ve always been captivated by the power of movement to heal, strengthen, and inspire.

Today, my passion is focused on helping individuals who have nowhere to turn after physical therapy, as well as dancers and performers looking to elevate their craft while preventing injury. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to move better, feel stronger, and live a healthier, more fulfilled life. That’s the heart of Monarch—bringing the best of movement, education, and personal care together to help you thrive.
