Meet Your Coach

Bridgett Twiford, Owner of Taurus Health and Fitness

I was raised in Lebanon, PA and currently reside in Myerstown, PA with my husband, Alex, and daughter, Addison. From a young age, I loved being active and exercising. I attended Cedar Crest High School where I played soccer and ran on the track and field team. I went on to play collegiate soccer at Lebanon Valley College. Through my experience with strength training in college, my passion for coaching and fitness grew stronger. So much so, that I changed my career path to pursue my passion for strength and conditioning coaching and personal training. My goal is to be a positive light in the community and empower clients to reach their life goals through improving their health and fitness.

Along with being a Strength and Conditioning Coach and Personal Trainer, I also coach high school soccer. Aside from strength training, I love traveling, spending time with my family, being outdoors, eating good food, golfing and playing pickleball!
