THE REFIT® EXPERIENCE
Our core concepts inspire everything that we do.
THE REFIT® MISSION & VISION
We believe that the heart is more than a muscle. That a person is more than a body. That relationships are as important as results. We believe fitness isn’t just for the fit...it’s for the willing.

MEET THE FOUNDERS
The REFIT® journey began in 2009 with a passion for people and a desire to see fitness evolve into a life-changing fitness experience. Founders Angela Beeler, Catherine Ballas and Emily Field decided that "community" was the missing piece in the fitness industry, and that connection was the key to lasting internal and external change. The trio built REFIT on a foundation of higher values, turning a fitness class into a revolutionary movement that transforms lives beyond the workout.
Angela Beeler
Founder and CEO of REFIT® Revolution
Angela is an Enneagram 8 who loves good food, chunky babies and great fitness...in that order. With over 8 years of professional experience in the fitness industry, Angela is passionate about seeing people live their best lives as the best version of themselves. Angela enjoys long walks in the park, a good glass of prosecco and leaving voice memos at all hours of the day. Her REFIT contributions include strategic vision/planning, instructor training and development, product creation, and marketing. She is also a self-professed hotel snob due to her love of fluffy bathrobes and fancy toiletries.
“Nothing has transformed my life more than realizing that it’s a waste of time to evaluate my worthiness by weighing the reaction of the people in the stands.” Brené Brown
Catherine Ballas
Founder and CEO of REFIT® Revolution
You may recognize Catherine from Season 5 Episode 15 of HGTV's Fixer Upper, but her real passion is living life as her alter ego, “DJ CAPPS.” Catherine desires to inspire people to live to their fullest potential, and she occasionally attempts this by impersonating Michael Jackson. Catherine holds a degree in Film & Digital Media and also holds an extensive library of 90’s rap lyrics in her head. Her REFIT contributions include strategic vision, cultural development, business partnerships, product development, and all the things. Catherine is an Enneagram 1, loves food, adventure, good conversation, and hilarious people.

Emily Field
Founder of REFIT® Revolution
Emily is a Waco native and a former nomad with a high need to experience all the things. She is down for anything, up for everything, and is a 7 on the Enneagram (clearly). Helping people find a place where they belong and can grow stronger body-mind-soul is what motivates her to give 100% each day. Her energy is directed towards the fitness components of REFIT, the general operations of the REFIT Studio in Waco, and raising two equally-energized toddlers. Emily’s perfect day would be a cool morning with a tree-line view, a hot afternoon by the pool, and a rainy night on the couch. Call her if this place exists.

Kristie N., West Virginia

"REFIT® believes in healing from the inside out. It's about being accepted for who you really are and finding people just like you who have the same challenges and victories. It's about lifting each other up and supporting each other. It's about laughing and fun and reaching goals you'd never thought you'd reach."

ROD Subscriber
"I started doing REFIT® Youtube videos and noticed changes in my confidence and concentration . . . so I joined REFIT® On Demand. I found that REFIT® helped me to manage my specific health challenges. Whenever I felt overwhelmed and close to panic, I would do a REFIT® class and it would help balance me out again. REFIT® has been a source of joy that I've not experienced for many years. I feel connected to the instructors and other class members."

Sherene C., Ohio
Participant
"If I miss a REFIT® class, my instructors message me because they care about me as a whole person. Not what I look like, how much money I have, or how much weight I’ve lost. There is no social hierarchy at REFIT®, no condemnation, no self-reproach allowed. My baggage of self-loathing and self-doubt is left at the door. I have the freedom to love myself and build not just a healthy body, but a healthy heart and soul."
Jan 1, 1970
Amber S., Texas
Participant
"When I walked into my first REFIT® class, I was depressed, not confident, and in need of something different. The instructors of the class made me feel like I belonged and like I mattered. Instead of quitting , I wanted to keep coming back because of the people. My REFIT® community walked with me through becoming a foster mom and supported us when we received our first placement. It is truly amazing how REFIT® is so much more than a workout."

"We loved watching friends and participants step out of their comfort zones and attend a REFIT® training. They had their eyes opened to the possibilities and potential they have...even though we knew it was there all along! It has been a real gift to watch the growth and transformation happen in someone else's life!"

Trainings Hosts
"We see lives impacted by REFIT® at every class, and we don't want to keep that to ourselves. We hosted a training in order to move the REFIT® Revolution outside our own class doors and into the broader community."
