Core and Soul Fitness

Sometimes clients just need to be somewhere that’s not their house

Sometimes they need to vent

….lift heavy $HiT

and….Exercise the “ick” out

Sometimes they need to be around people who get it

And not those who wear sports bras to class and are a size 2

Those girls don’t come here

My girl are the one that don’t usually like the gym

They want a space to be themselves

To not feel intimidated if they feel bloated

Or embarrassed if their knees just don’t seem to cooperate

Some need a place to heal

Whatever you need…

We’ve got you at Core and Soul Fitness

Hi 👋🏼 I figured it was time to re-introduce myself…

I’m Bernadette — but you’ll probably hear B, Bern… maybe even Burns 😄 (but never Bernie).

I’m someone who genuinely loves to move. Rock climbing, kayaking, jiu jitsu, yoga, strength training… if it involves using my body, I’m in.

I have a degree in Exercise Physiology from William Paterson, and I’ve pretty much seen every side of the fitness world — commercial gyms, corporate settings, physical therapy centers, nursing homes, working with athletes… you name it.

In October 2019, I made a big decision.
I left a full-time job that I loved — but it was also high stress, 100% commission, long hours, and a commute that kept me away from my kids more than I wanted.

So I chose different.

A few months later… COVID hit. And somehow, because I had already built a client base, I was able to pivot into virtual training before it became the norm.

And that’s really where Core and Soul was born.

I created Core and Soul for women who didn’t feel like they “fit” in typical gyms.
Women who might be dealing with injuries… or who have never worked out before… or just feel unsure walking into a fitness space.

Here’s the thing — we don’t do weight loss programs here.

We focus on getting strong so you can do life better.

That might mean:
✨ Having the stamina to walk all day on vacation
✨ Getting up off the floor with ease
✨ Doing yard work without being sore for days
✨ Climbing a ladder to hang Christmas lights
✨ Keeping up with your kids without feeling exhausted

This is real-life strength.

And beyond the workouts… this is a community.

You won’t walk in and just recognize faces.
You’ll know names. You’ll build friendships.
And if you miss a week — people will notice and check in.

Classes are small, all women, and held in a private residential studio in Swedesboro — so you never feel like just a number.

Everything is programmed so whether you come 1 day or 5 days a week, you’re always getting a purposeful, effective workout.

We offer early mornings, evenings, and even virtual options — because life is busy, and fitness should fit into it.
