Personal Note from Nina

I was born and raised in Ukraine, where discipline wasn’t a trend — it was a way of life. I grew up in an Orthodox Christian home shaped by faith, resilience, and the values of hard work, tradition, and responsibility.

Before I ever stepped into a gym, I was a teacher. And long before that, I was a girl with a violin — learning rhythm, structure, and the quiet patience it takes to master something meaningful.

Then life tested that structure. I became a mother — twice. I was overweight and couldn’t do a single pull-up. I know what it feels like to have no time, no energy, and no idea where to begin. And yet, I was proud to be a mom. That joy never left me — but I knew something had to change.

From music to motherhood, from classrooms to coaching floors, my life has always moved — emotionally, physically, and across borders. I carried grief, growth, and grace — often all at once.

And one day, I made a decision: To stop surviving… and start building.

That moment became the foundation for Nina Harrison Fitness, and eventually the creation of my signature system — the NH Fit Method™.

This journey is not about perfection. It’s about showing up. Doing the work. Choosing better — again and again.

Like Dr. Edith Eva Eger says, “You can’t heal what you don’t feel. But once you feel it, you can choose.” I choose - every single day.
