About Us
WE DON’T JUST TRAIN BODIES. WE COACH PEOPLE.
Life Techs was built on a simple belief: that real, lasting fitness isn’t about having the perfect program. It’s about having the right coach, one who understands you, meets you where you are, and builds something that actually fits your life.
Our Story
Most gyms are built around equipment and memberships. We built Life Techs around people. From the beginning, our goal was simple: create a place where clients feel seen, supported, and understood, while giving talented coaches a place to build meaningful careers doing work they love.
The Problem
We saw the same patterns throughout the fitness industry. Clients were often placed into programs that didn’t reflect who they were or what they needed. Talented coaches moved from gym to gym, rarely finding a place where they could truly grow. We knew there had to be a better way for both.
The Turning Point
So we built something different. At Life Techs, our coaches bring more than certifications to the floor. We take the time to understand your movement, your habits, your goals, and the life you live outside the gym. Our goal isn’t simply to help you exercise. It’s to help you build a healthier relationship with fitness and make it work in your real life.
Today
Today, we’re a team of coaches and a community of people at many different stages of their fitness journey, from busy parents juggling everything, to adults returning to fitness after years away, to people who never felt like “the gym” was a place for them. We’ve built a place where they can feel like they belong.
Our Philosophy
Fitness should fit your life. Not the other way around.
We don’t coach an ideal version of you. We coach the real you, with a demanding job, a full household, old injuries, and maybe even a complicated history with the gym. That’s why we start with a conversation, not a template.

Curtis Williams
Owner and Coach / Behavioral Change Specialist
I was drawn into coaching because I was good at working out and thought training people would be “easy”. I found out quickly it was anything but. I stuck around because I believe everyone deserves to feel confident, strong, and capable in their own skin. I believe everyone can accomplish their goals, if you hang around me long enough, you’ll believe it too.

Jessica Spencer
Head Coach / Pain Free Performance
Before I became a coach, I was a client and a teacher. I fell in love with working out and I wanted to spread that passion on! I love working with kettlebells the most and my favorite exercise is the kettle swing 🙂! I specialize in corrective exercise and small group fitness for clients in Wayland and the surrounding Metrowest area.

Hakim Barge
Coach / Rehab Specialist
I’m a coach who is based in human biomechanics, I really enjoy the way people move and seeing people live pain free. Because of what fitness has done in my own life and seeing what can happen with the knowledge we possess today, I want to share that with as many people as possible. I enjoy reading research articles new and old that help me to learn more about human tendencies, issues and ultimately what makes us tick. The more information the better the application!
