Coach
She has been involved in the sport of Olympic weightlifting for 30 years. Her coaching career began at the age of 15 (19 years ago) and her love for teaching others continues to grow with each passing year.
Those who know her, know she has a deep love for training. She has spent decades throwing herself into the fire of multiple different fitness realms (Olympic weightlifting, CrossFit and ultra running) just to see what she can learn about herself.
Throughout that journey, Sage's coaching methodology has continued to grow and evolve. Her deepest goal is to continually learn and to take what she learns and pass it on to those who are like her... obsessed with exploring the depths of themselves through sport and physical feats.
The athletes she loves to coach are not the world champions, or the elite level competitors. The athletes that fuel her soul are the athletes with maturity, perspective and a deep love for training. They're the ones that know that we don't train to qualify for that one competition/race... we train to become better humans.
She mentors coaches, she coaches athletes remotely and she teaches one day Olympic weightlifting seminars. However, her deepest passion is holding her Bad Bitch Camps: a weekend fitness retreat for women where they dive deep into their physical selves so they can dive even deeper into their spiritual selves.
"The Burgener Way has always been about giving back and helping others see/reach their true potential...because that's what life is all about. That's why I'm here. And I'm here for you." - Sage Burgener
