So glad you’re here!
Develop a new relationship with your body through curated exercises, lifestyle tips and nutrition.
MOVE WELL, FEEL GOOD, AND STAY ACTIVE FOR YEARS TO COME.
I ’ll help you get there.
IN THE LAST 30 YEARS AS A CERTIFIED PERSONAL TRAINER AND FITNESS SPECIALIST, I’VE…
SERVED
15,000+ CLIENTS
From personal training to a luxury wellness retreat, my work alongside top experts shaped the holistic, movement-focused approach I use to help women thrive throughout the second half of life.
BUILT A FULL-SCALE
WELLNESS PRACTICE
What started as an in-home personal training business grew into a leading full-scale concierge wellness practice with a multi-disciplinary team and metabolic testing lab.
EARNED THE TRUST OF PHYSICIANS
Physicians and specialists regularly refer their patients to my care, knowing they’ll receive results-driven, science-backed support tailored to women in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond.
For years, women have come to me looking for answers
…to the nagging aches, stiff joints, workouts that stopped working, and bodies that don’t feel like their own anymore.
I created Flourish with Jackie because I know they’re not alone. There are thousands of women in their 50s, 60s, 70s+ who deserve support tailored to this stage of life—support that helps you feel strong, steady, and like yourself again.
BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS…
What powered us in our 30s backfires in our 50s and beyond
But Your symptoms aren’t setbacks—they’re just signals that it’s time for a better approach.
Flourish with Jackie exists so women everywhere—not just those with access to elite wellness centers—can:
Maintain active, pain-free lives
Feel truly at home in their bodies
Finally have a trusted resource for 50+ women’s wellness
“Jackie truly changes lives…one gentle suggestion and one encouraging word at a time! My life, body and mind have improved in health, strength, and confidence in ways I could never have imagined.”

The Flourish
Movement
Flourish with Jackie isn’t just a fitness and longevity brand—it’s a movement of real women embracing healthy aging with strength, support, and confidence.
What began as a deep passion for both movement and human connection has grown into the insightful mind-body approach I’m known for today.
After thousands of sessions, the joy of helping someone feel better—stronger, freer, more at ease—never fades. Whether it’s easing pain, improving movement, or simply helping a woman feel more at home in her body, I’m reminded that this is exactly what I was made to do.
My mission is to help women reclaim the physical confidence that makes every other part of life more vibrant and fulfilling.

ABOUT THE FOUNDER
JACKIE BALLINGER, CPT, CES
CERTIFIED PERSONAL TRAINER FOR WOMEN OVER 50
My journey began on the sunlit tennis courts of Southern California—a shy but outgoing girl in pink pom-pom socks, learning grit and grace one serve at a time. While my athletic skills and determination sharpened on the court, my intuition and empathy were quietly developing at home as I lovingly cared for everything from a tiny pet mouse to majestic horses. Those early experiences ignited a lifelong passion for movement, care, and connection that has guided my work for over 30 years. Those early experiences ignited a lifelong passion for movement, care, and connection that has guided my work for over 30 years.
From breaking barriers as the first girl on the Boys' Varsity Tennis Team—at just 14 years old—to collaborating with leading wellness experts decades later, I've woven together discipline, curiosity,
and an unwavering belief in the body's remarkable ability to heal and thrive.
From my home among the redwoods in Woodside, California — in the heart of Silicon Valley — I draw on my training as a Certified Corrective Exercise Specialist, Personal Trainer, and Movement Longevity Coach to help women over 50 reclaim their strength, mobility, and freedom from pain. Through virtual programs and personalized coaching, I'm here to help you move with ease, feel truly at home in your body, and keep doing what you love for decades to come.
My mission is beautifully simple: to share what I've learned so you can flourish—not just today, but for life.

What Keeps Me Flourishing
Wild Wonders
I find magic in all of nature's creatures, from backyard birds to majestic wildlife. Whether I'm hiking through forests, spotting animals in their natural habitat, or simply watching the sunrise, the natural world fills me with awe and energy.
Rhythm & Flow
Music moves my soul, and I move to music! There's nothing like putting on my favorite songs and letting my body dance freely - no rules, no choreography, just pure expression and joy through movement.
Vibrant Wellness
Living life at full brightness means nourishing every part of myself. I'm passionate about healthy foods, clean living, and all the small choices that make me feel radiant and energized from the inside out.
Personal Growth
I’m deeply committed to continuous growth and self‑evolution. Personal development isn’t just something I value — it’s been a cornerstone of my life for decades.
Fresh Discoveries
My curiosity never sleeps! Whether it's exploring a new hiking trail, trying an unfamiliar restaurant, visiting a place I've never been, or learning something different — novelty is my fuel.
Movement Adventures
I love exploring the world through movement — from conquering mountain trails while hiking and biking, to steadily increasing the weights I lift, to challenging myself on new adventures.

Your body is a beautifully interconnected system. I embrace an integrative approach that rejects quick fixes in favor of lasting practices that honor the mind-body connection.
CONTINUOUS GROWTH
Science is always evolving, and so am I. With intellectual humility and curiosity, I continue to learn so I can offer women the most effective and current support available.
ACCESSIBLE EXCELLENCE
Exceptional care should be accessible to everyone. That’s why I’ve brought my in-person expertise online—so women can get high-quality support no matter where they are.
“I no longer experience pain.”
“When I started working with Jackie I had lower back pain that was preventing me from enjoying both social and athletic activities. Jackie's exercises have helped me discover new muscles that have helped me gain strength to support my back, and I no longer experience pain. I want to add that because of who she is, she makes it fun and motivating to work hard.”
