Meet Nicki Jones
Founder and CEO of NickiFit

The proverb "What comes from the heart reaches the heart" illustrates NickiFit's spirit. Nicki started NickiFit when she experienced firsthand the impact health challenges had on her body. Her mental health was tied to her physical health, and her journey was primarily alone. She did not feel safe in spaces that did not have commonalities, and economically, she could not afford memberships. 

​

NickiFit grew from the vision that those seeking health would never be alone. Nicki would expand this vision to serve as many people as she could. 
​
Affectionately nicknamed the Pied Piper of Exercise, Nicki's ability to lead and motivate others has helped many people achieve inner well-being and physical movement goals. Unlike most brands, Nickifit thrives on the fitness-for-free model, which Nicki Jones developed through community partnerships and has been a pillar of hope for low-resource communities. 
​
Nicki has appeared in the Kansas City Star, FOX4 News, and Great Day KC. She was voted Best Female Fitness Trainer in the 2023 Kansas City People's Choice Awards. Nicki is also in Michael Price's award-winning mini-documentary Libraries Out Loud: A Literacy Beyond Words and will be featured in the national documentary Free for All by Serendipity Films, released on April 29, 2025. 

​

Nicki Jones is a wife, mother, and businesswoman. When not working, she enjoys spending time with her adult children and husband, reading books, and listening to music.
