​Meet the East Coast's best fitness coaches


Josh March
Owner

Coach Josh is passionate about helping people take control of their lives. This is what led him to venture out on his own in 2011. After working in commercial gyms and corporate wellness centers focused on fitting in with the mainstream gym mentality, he decided to break the mold. If others weren’t going to be open to change, he would create the change he wanted to see. Josh took his concept of functional training (and the Sparta program) and began coaching anywhere he could. Within a few months he connected with Angela Myers, who was following a similar trajectory, and they joined forces in what is now emPower Training Systems.
    
     But his passion for helping others doesn’t stop there. He is also the Non-commissioned Officer-in-Charge of Chapel Operations for the 193rd Special Operations Wing in the United States Air Force (PA Air National Guard). This position not only allows Josh to serve others and his country, but also God. Josh strongly believes that God has placed a call on his life to help others with all pillars of wellness, not just the physical. 

    
​     Coach Josh is also the proud “Dada” to 2 young kiddos, EmmaJane and Simon, and happily married to his wife Erin. He enjoys being active outdoors and is a competitive obstacle course racing athlete. He had the honor of competing on American Ninja Warrior in 2017 and brought home the title of “World Champion” in his age group at the 2021 Obstacle Course Racing World Championships! He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science and nearly 20 years of experience in the field. Josh is currently pursuing his Master’s of Divinity at Liberty University.

Keith Royer began his training journey as one of emPOWER's clients, and then turned that experience into a passion for coaching.

He earned his certification through the American Council on Exercise (ACE). He also holds a certification in youth fitness and Sparta as well.

Besides fitness coaching, Keith serves as the k-12 academic and technology coach in the Annville-Cleona school district. He has been teaching for the past 15 years, and received his BS in education from Millersville University.

Sibbie Groh

Sibbie began her own personal training as a client at emPOWER with the goal of completing a Tough Mudder competition. She was drawn to emPOWER's sense of family and the comradery within the team training concept. This encouraging environment ignited such a new level of confidence within herself that she wanted to lead and inspire other exercise enthusiasts.

She believes that everyone is capable of maintaining a happy and healthy lifestyle when surrounded by supportive peers. Sibbie's love for active living began by participating in various school sports. Since graduating from McCaskey High School, she has practiced nursing as an LPN at the LGH Residency Program in downtown Lancaster. She is passionate about serving and caring for her patients.

She enjoys the outdoors and is currently section hiking the Appalachian Trail alongside her husband.

Sibbie also loves participating in Mud Runs, 5Ks, obstacle runs, and a variety of distance running events.

She has completed her certification for Group Fitness Instructor through AFAA and sees herself pursing other certifications.

Sibbie is excited to start this new journey together with other clients who also want to be challenged and empowered while reaching their fitness goals.

Diane Thomas

My fitness journey began 6 years ago, at 52 years old. I've always been a very active person running, hiking, biking, but when I was dealing with a back injury I knew I needed to make a change and get myself stronger.

Over these past 6 years I have found my passion in fitness, healthy eating, and living a healthy lifestyle.

I started training at emPOWER in January 2019, after dealing with pain and injury with crossfit, and have learned so much from Josh, Carla, and Deryk. This has inspired me to get certified as a personal trainer through the National Association of Sports Medicine (NASM) and be able to share my experiences and knowledge in wellness with others. 

I am also studying to become a Certified Corrective Exercise Specialist to help clients through injury and living without pain. In addition, I am studying to become a Certified Nutrition Specialist to help clients meet their goals.

I'm excited to begin my career as one of your trainers here at emPOWER Training Systems.
