Meet the ProGlow #SQUAD

Founded by a #Boss

The OG Girl Boss, ProGlow founder Pauline Haugen knows the power of strong females. Her wellness journey began as an athlete, starting as a competitive figure skater and transitioning into a NCAA Division 1 track athlete. This active lifestyle early in life inspired her to learn the benefits of nutrition and the power of food as a healing tool.

Fast forward to today, Dr. Pauline Haugen is now a practicing chiropractor, certified basi pilates instructor and founder of ProGlow Protein. She uses her knowledge of food and nutrition to help ladies in all stages of life get their glow on.

Oxana began her career in the fashion industry, where years of experience taught her the importance of exercise and nutrition for both your body and your mind. After this realization, she began to explore a career in fitness, starting her journey as a yoga teacher. Shortly after, she discovered the world of Pilates and barre. Combining Pilates, yoga and barre with healthy nutrition has helped her stay feeling great through two pregnancies and motherhood.

Currently, Oxana balances motherhood, entrepreneurship and an active lifestyle. She owns Carefree Boat Club in Seattle with her husband and still happily teaches Pilates classes at a local studio. Being a mom and a business owner (with a side hustle!) keeps her busy all day. Her healthy lifestyle is essential to overcome daily challenges and keep her energy level up!

For Oxana, the most rewarding part about fitness is the opportunity to teach Pilates and spread the happiness of a healthy lifestyle!

CLAUDIA

Glow-Getter (n): A driven busy girl boss who strives to attain her goals in life while attaining a glow inside and out.

That’s how we would describe this hustling momma, yogi and therapist extraordinaire. Claudia takes on life with her tight-knit pack, which includes her husband, their new daughter and a few pups, too.

When she’s not spending time with loved ones, she spreads the mental and physical benefits of yoga through teaching classes around the community. Even as she adjusts her yoga practice around motherhood, you’ll still find Claudia teaching classes at Lulu Lemon.

Additionally, Claudia’s notoriety as a therapist has landed her appearances both on screen and in print. It’s clear she prioritizes wellness not only in the body, but also in her mind and spirit.

MARCELLE

Raised in a small town off the West coast of South Africa, Marcelle’s childhood had a limited world view but a strong emphasis on the value of life, love, friendship and faith. After high school, she was bitten by the travel bug and made plans to see the world. In her travels, she met new people, tasted new foods and drank the finest cocktails. As she fulfilled her wanderlust, she realized her metabolism began to slow. Marcelle’s gut reaction was to quickly create an unhealthy relationship with the gym and try out fad dieting.

Through inconsistent results and general unhappiness, Marcelle realized these unhealthy habits weren’t sustainable. This inspired her to pursue a balanced life, full of healthy choices and happiness. She began to eat wholesome food, do workouts she enjoyed and listen to her body when she needed a rest day. Not only did she reach her fitness milestones, but she also discovered a way to live life healthy, fit and happy without giving up food and fun! Today, she owns Balance Me Fit and develops training programs to spread the joy of fitness.

ANDI

Andi has always lived an active lifestyle. Growing up in the water, she did water polo and swimming in high school. While she loved to be on the move, she didn’t always reap the benefits of balanced nutrition until she discovered her love for the outdoors. Between hiking, snowboarding, rock climbing and more, Andi realized the strength she was capable of and wanted to fuel her body properly. When she’s not on an outdoor adventure, she stays active with Lagree Method, strength training, and yoga.

Coupled with dedicating time to coach a Special Olympics swim team, Andi’s main hustle is fitness coaching and training. She enjoys every moment of her active lifestyle and thrives off of sharing wellness with others.

ALYCIA

Alycia’s wellness journey began hand-in-hand with motherhood. After having children, she quickly realized how important it is for her to take care of both her family and herself. When she began prioritizing her physical and mental health, she immediately noticed the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. She fully believes the path to wellness involves fueling your body properly, along with working out.

MARKIE

A two-time Natural Bikini Pro and five-time NQ NPC Bikini Athlete, Markie is no stranger to the world of fitness. When she first stepped on to the bodybuilding scene, she didn’t know anyone else in the industry. From day one, she learned to motivate herself to push forward.

For that first year and a half, she did all her own research, prep and training without a coach. During that time, she qualified nationally for the NPC and earned her first two Pro Bikini titles. In 2017, she hired a coach for the first time and went on to qualify for NPC Nationals three more times.  

Markie’s motivation is to inspire anyone who has faced challenges in life to keep moving forward. As a survivor of domestic violence and human trafficking, Markie uses her platform on social media to spread awareness and inspiration.
