Kim Hartt was born and
raised in Canada where
she competed in figure skating and attained her Gold Level Tests.
She was then accepted into the Physical Therapy
program in the faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of
Alberta. She graduated in the
spring of 1994 at the top of her class earning her BScPT in Rehabilitation
Medicine.
Kim launched her Physical Therapy career in
Carlsbad, New Mexico, in July of 1994.
Kim specialized in the field of outpatient orthopedics where she
worked with many athletic/sports related injuries.
In September 1995, Kim
moved to Florida. In her first year of fitness competition (starting from
scratch with no background fitness competition experience), Kim managed to accomplish her first
fitness career goal by winning the "Ms. Fitness Florida State Champion" Title in June
of 1996. From there Kim went on to compete in the obstacle
course competitions such as Ms. Galaxy, Lifequest Triple Crown, and The
Ironwomen Tri-Fitness Contests. Kim began to
climb higher on her ladder of success with a runner-up placement at the
Debbie Kruck Classic in May of 1998.
In 1999, Kim crossed over careers to the
entertainment industry to star in a TV series that was filmed out of
Orlando, FL. However, her fitness competitor status continued to escalate
towards the end of 1999 at Nationals when she attained her Pro Status in front of a hometown crowd
in Orlando, FL.
Now, at the professional
fitness level, Kim wants
to take the opportunity to share all of her winning secrets from her
experiences to help to motivate and encourage everyone and anyone
who has the desire to follow their dreams and accomplish their fitness
goals.
