The Butterfly Life concept, of developing an integrated approach to women’s fitness, weight loss and healthy living, was created by a team of pioneers boasting more than a century of industry experience. Butterfly Life understands that weight loss is only one component of a healthy life, so that’s why the program was developed with a 360-degree approach to accommodating all components of women’s fitness and health. By incorporating the traditional components of weight loss (nutrition and exercise) with psychology, health, beauty and fashion, Butterfly Life has created a unique platform that inspires women to become exactly who they want to be.
Butterfly Life-St. Helens is locally owned by Marty & Laurie Holmason, and operated by Laurie. They have been open since 2007.
Our members range in age from their teens to their 80's! There are women who are long distance runners and women who have never worked out before. Some women want to lose 10 pounds and others 100 pounds. Some are here to just get the strength that they are missing. So no matter what your level of exercise experience or your goals, come and see us. We will work with you one on one to help you achieve your definition of success. New friendships have been formed here and your never short on a workout partner.
It is our goal to provide each of our members a safe, fun, supportive environment where they can see results.
Laurie has a passion for supporting and coaching women on how to
achieve their health and fitness goals. It isn’t only the passion that
possesses her- but the reality of being there herself throughout her
own life. She learned a long time ago that you don’t have to be
“Twiggy” to be happy and healthy. And that is what she brings to the
club and its many members. She has “been there….done that” and learned
that it’s movement and exercise that helps keep your weight stable and
the energy to keep up with her husband and 8 grandchildren.
Along with Laurie are two Life Style Coaches who are also dedicated to providing motivation and support to all of their members. They strive on encompassing a non-injury environment and really pay attention to proper form on the machines. They each have their own area of expertise which helps support all of the members here at Butterfly Life-St. Helens….
Staff Members
Allison (Alli) Catt-Asst Manager/ Lifestyle Coach
Yes! That’s her name and she lives up to it here at Butterfly Life.
She prides herself on always being “in your business”-in a good way!.
Her passion is motivation and “can’t” is not in her vocabulary. She
helps encourage the members to find their niches and excel at them. She
will be the first on the floor to do a workout with you and the last to
leave. Her past has carried her from 130lbs to 300lbs and back down
again- so she is another that has “been there-done that” and has felt
what those members are feeling right now.. She is not afraid to sweat
along with the rest of them and is great at putting a smile on
everyone’s face. She is a Circuit Boot Camp instructor that will give
you the extra push to succeed. Alli and Laurie share the stage of the
Group Personal Training classes too.There has not been a name or a face she has forgotten- and it continues to surprise all of us!
Dana Terry- Lifestyle Coach
Dana has a great motivating and uplifting personality with a lot of extra energy thrown in! She enjoys working out with the ladies and giving that extra special help to those who need it. When the ladies are reaching towards their goals her encouragement and praise are undeniable. She is the first to make you laugh and has no problem laughing at herself! She’s always up for a challenge and will try everything out at least once-then give you her sometimes too honest opinion!….she has even mastered the Hoola Hoop along with other members that she has told “yes you can” !
