Why Choose Swat?

OUR STORY

SWAT (Strength Wellness Athletic Training) was started by Ron and Jana Holland, starting back in 1991. In Ron's long and successful career in military law enforcement, he served as a
SWAT Commander and fitness training specialist, responsible for training his troops, and also for developing fitness programs for overweight soldiers.

Ron’s fitness accomplishments included running 13 marathons worldwide, as well as being assigned responsibility for airmen who were in danger of being discharged due to obesity and poor physical fitness.

Jana comes from a background of dance, fitness training, and psychology, having earned a Masters Degree in Psychology, and then devoting all her time to running the business and working with clients to make them more successful than ever.
