Renee Dunn

Personal Trainer

With over 13 years in the fitness industry, and nearly 20 years on my own fitness journey, I am extremely passionate about helping others feel strong in their bodies and unlock their own potential. 

Out of shape and unathletic as a kid, I was lucky to be introduced to strength training in high school through my brother's football trainer. As I started to feel more empowered in my body, I discovered that movement was huge in helping me in other parts of my life -- it became a form of expression and self-realization, helping me feel energized, confident, focused, and disciplined. 

I started teaching group fitness while in college, went on to teach yoga in 2016, and soon found my way back to strength training, coaching at a DC area franchise called MADabolic in 2019. I eventually became a lead trainer for 3 locations, and loved helping running movement clinics, following clients' strength journeys, and fell in love all over again with cueing and coaching as I saw their progress.

In 2024 I moved to LA, and was excited to find VERRO in 2025 after dealing with my own post surgery PT and navigating progressing training once again. I'm excited to be joining this small but mighty team, and working with you towards your individual goals! 

Outside of the gym, you can catch me CEO-ing at Amäzi, hiking, traveling, at dance class, or bopping around the local farmers markets.
