Coach Kirsten grew up outside of Nashville, Tennessee where she lived half of her childhood. She attended a Private Christian school and was very active with her school and church. Coach Kirsten played softball and enjoyed mountain biking as well as hiking with family and friends nearly every weekend. After moving to northeast Missouri, she started horseback riding lessons which lead to training horses. After graduating high school and working a lot, she sought out something that would get her back into shape and keep her active. That is when Kirsten found Gracie Barra. Coach Kirsten has been training for over 3 years now with over 2 ½ years of coaching experience at Gracie Barra Hannibal. She is ICP 5 and ICP 6 certified, and currently working on ICP6 Revisited. She accepted a full-time position with Gracie Barra Jefferson City in the Spring of 2018.
