You don’t need another plan.
You need a guide who sees the whole picture — and stays with you through it.
I’m Sarah Heringer, Co-Founder and Director of Findlay Movement. I’ve spent over a decade coaching women in fitness, nutrition, and true health — logging more than 10,000 hours helping people rebuild energy, strength, and self-trust.
What I’ve learned? No two bodies are the same — especially women’s. And no one thrives on a generic plan.
That’s why I coach the way I do: with your biology, your stress, and your season of life front and center. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, rebuilding after burnout, or just want to feel like yourself again, I design structure that works — and sticks.
My background in yoga, somatic practices, and strength training helps me support women who are chasing big things — and don’t have time to waste on systems that weren’t built for them.
If you’re ready for a deeper way to train and a coach who’s in it with you — let’s talk.

Patrick Heringer
Co-Founder of Findlay Movement
Director of Coaching
You know where you want to go. I help you get there — faster, stronger, and smarter than you would on your own.
I’m Patrick, Strength & Performance Coach at Findlay Movement. I work with people who are serious about getting better — not just at lifting, but at living in their bodies with more capability, confidence, and control.
With over two decades of experience in fitness, I’ve learned how to see exactly what someone needs to move forward — often before they do. My coaching style is focused, intentional, and results-driven. I don’t do fluff. I don’t do guesswork. I give you a clear plan based on where you are and where you’re headed.
If you’re someone who takes initiative, wants to understand your body deeply, and values coaching that respects your time and effort — I’m here for that.
At Findlay Movement, I guide you to the kind of progress that sticks — not just because you worked harder, but because you trained with someone who saw the whole picture and showed you how to get there.

Dr. Anya Cox
Senior Apprentice Coach
I am a physical therapist turned fitness instructor/coach with a desire to help my clients’ bodies heal and grow in ways they never thought possible. After working in the healthcare industry for over a decade, I knew there had to be a better way to promote lasting changes in my clients’ fitness, strength, and overall health. I started to take courses in treating fitness athletes and then jumped into the functional fitness world head-on when I joined Findlay Movement as a member in 2022.
I worked in outpatient orthopedics for a combined 12 years, working with a variety of patient populations, though I am passionate about working with lifters and fitness athletes of all ages. I don’t believe that there is an optimal age or background when it relates to athleticism and love to see my clients flourish and overcome challenges they never thought they could. Whether you are new to functional fitness, looking for something new to push your fitness boundaries or you have been dealing with chronic injury or pain and are tired of dealing with traditional healthcare models, let me be your guide. When I’m not working, I love spending time with my husband and 3 stinky little dogs. My husband affectionately calls me a plant, as I will do most any outdoor activity!

Maia Gilbert
Coach
I’ve been all about sports and staying active for as long as I can remember, and it’s something I’m super passionate about. I actually ended up going to LSU (geaux tigers!) and got my degree in Kinesiology. While I was there, I had this amazing opportunity to work with some really top-notch athletes and see them perform at their best. But, it’s not just about athletes for me; I’ve also worked with people who just want to stay fit and healthy for their families. Whether it’s athletes or family folks, the common thread is that they’re all motivated and serious about their health. I’m a big believer that seeking health should be a part of your daily routine, and it shouldn’t feel like a chore.
When we work together, we’re in it for the long haul. I’ll be right there with you through the highs and the lows, cheering you on and pushing you to be your best. Everyone’s needs are different, but that’s the beautiful thing. I’m here to meet you wherever you’re at in your fitness journey, but I don’t want us to stay there. I want to see you consistently showing up, reaching your goals, and really going beyond just the physical appearance. No matter where you’re at in life, let’s team up and build a stronger, healthier you together.

Jules Vansant
Junior Apprentice Coach
I first fell in love with fitness through group training sessions, where the energy and camaraderie fueled my passion for getting stronger and feeling my best. I know that many of you have been navigating your own fitness paths for some time now, but whether you’re a seasoned gym-goer or just trying out functional fitness, I’m here, ready, and excited to join forces with you. In our partnership, I’m not just your coach; I’m your community, your accountability partner, and I’m behind your individualized programming. We’ll work to create a foundation of commitment, trust, and a shared desire to see you succeed. Together, we will craft a strategy tailored to fit into your life, ensuring that your fitness journey is not just manageable, but fun too. We’ve all heard the phrase: “the journey is the destination”. I’m ready to bring my energy for life into our fitness journey together.
On a personal note, I recently moved from metro Atlanta to OTR, and I am absolutely loving the vibrancy that Cincinnati brings to my life. Outside of the gym I’m a photographer, a music enthusiast, a collector of tattoos, a world traveler, and a proud plant mom.

Ben Green
Coach
I am a father, husband, and destroyer of dad bod. I say that jokingly but I view the dad bod as the cultural normalization of an unhealthy lifestyle. I’ve fought it my throughout my adult life and I know many others have as well. I grew up playing sports and was constantly active but as soon as I left high school I was suddenly responsible for keeping up a fitness routine on my own with no guidance. I looked for information wherever I could but it was hard to find.
When I found Findlay Movement, it was like finding an oasis of knowledge and support in the wilderness. The community is super welcoming which made it easy for me to come to the the gym and establish a routine. When I was offered the opportunity to be a part of that, I jumped at the chance. I have a masters degree in social work so I see how much having someone in your corner can help you grow and create healthy habits. I love supporting people when things are frustrating, and celebrating when things go well. I want to work with people who are committed to long term health and know that means showing up consistently and doing the work.

Sophie Pouliquen
Coach
I started Functional Fitness in 2016, right here at Findlay Movement! The supportive community and constant challenge is what has kept me coming back. My love for helping others drew me to pursue coaching in 2019. I love watching members achieve their goals and become stronger, healthier versions of themselves.
Outside of the gym, I am an engineer by trade. I work as a Technical Account Manager for a tech startup. In my free time I love to cook, ride my bike and play tennis. I live in the heart of OTR with my adorable cat named Leila.

BS, Computer Engineering
Stacey Kerr
Coach
My passion is education. I help people learn better, know better, and move better. I have been a high-level athlete for most of my life and am a specially trained educator with undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral degrees focused on teaching and learning. It is working with Findlay Movement that I have been improving my fitness for longevity and quality of life - not simply competition.
As a child and pre-teen, I competed at the provincial level in gymnastics and diving. I later focused on the sport of rowing where I won four high school team National Championships and an individual National Championship in the Women’s 4+. Before Lebron made it cool, I took my talents to South Beach where I rowed on a full scholarship for the University of Miami. Since my time as a collegiate athlete where I developed a number of chronic injuries, I have been working on staying fit and not getting hurt; and helping others achieve the same.
