FONDA INTERACTIVE TRAINING (F.I.T.)
WILMINGTON NC
Meet Fonda Dickens, CPT
I’m Fonda Dickens, CPT, and I’ve been helping women get stronger for over 15 years as a certified personal trainer in Wilmington NC — and teaching group fitness for almost 20 years. I work with women at my own studio near Mayfaire, offering both in-person and live online classes.
My approach has always been the same: meet you exactly where you are, prioritize proper form over pushing too hard too fast, and help you discover you’re capable of more than you thought. Whether you’re just starting out, working around an injury, or ready to take things to the next level, I’ll be right there with you every step of the way.
I keep my classes small — never more than 6 women in person — because I believe everyone deserves individual attention, a modification when they need one, and a coach who actually notices them.
I started F.I.T. because I believe exercising as part of a supportive community makes us all mentally clearer, happier, and stronger. That community is what gets you through the hard days — and what makes the good days even better.

How F.I.T. Began
Fonda Interactive Training grew out of a simple belief — that working out with a small group of encouraging women is better than working out alone. More fun, more accountable, and honestly, more effective.
F.I.T. started as a group of women who wanted something different. Not a big gym. Not an intimidating boot camp. Just a small, supportive community led by a trainer who actually knew their names, remembered their injuries, and celebrated their progress.
When the opportunity came to add live online classes to the mix, it turned out to be one of the best decisions F.I.T. ever made. Suddenly women who traveled for work, lived outside Wilmington, or just preferred the convenience of training from home could be part of the same community. Same coaching, same energy, same modifications — just no commute.
Today F.I.T. offers the best of both worlds — morning classes at our Wilmington studio near Mayfaire for those who love the energy of working out together in person, and live online options for women anywhere.
Either way, you’ll find the same warm, encouraging community that started it all.
