About the Owners:
Tiger and Emily’s journey started at young ages, but their hsared passion for healthg and community truly took off after graduating from Finlandia University with Nursing degrees. Life took them on adventures to Colorado and Minnesota before they returned to their roots in the U.P after a decade away.
Along the way, they built a family- Welcoming their children Bauer, Cooper and Ryann. While settling into their new home in Manistique, they opened Yooper Fitness. Their vision to bring accessible, high-quality fitness to the U.P kept growing, leading to the launch of the two additional locations in L’Anse and Newberry.
From day one, Tiger and Emily have built Yooper Fitness on the values of community, hard work, and a passion for helping others. Whether you’re just starting out or pushing your limits, they’re here to support you every step of the way!
