Personal training at Spark and Vitality, a Pennsylvania wellness company

The Spark and Vitality Story

Owner, Jen Campbell has been in the Personal training field for 30 years. In 2015, she took over Elkins Spark Fitness and made a commitment to the community to bring healthy approaches to overall wellness. Jen did this by introducing new fitness techniques, inviting experienced trainers and thought leaders to help ESP members meet and exceed their fitness goals.

In 2020, when the pandemic hit, it actually brought Jen an opportunity for pivot and reflection. Reopening in Spring of 2021 as Spark and Vitality, Jen and her team are thrilled to continue to bring total wellness services and more back to the Bucks County community.

For the last 15+ years Jasmin has helped clients achieve their goals by using simple, effective and proven fitness principles.

As a kid growing up and playing basketball in Bosnia, he dreamed of playing in the NBA. He came as close as 10 vertical inches away from being drafted. After that “close call”, he refocused his attention on college and decided to pursue an interest in human performance and exercise. He moved to New Hampshire, studied at the University of New Hampshire and earned a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology.

His passion is educating clients about fitness while giving them the tools to achieve their goals, whether it be a competitive and/or recreational endurance athlete looking to set their personal best or a client looking to lose a few pounds. He believes having S.M.A.R.T. goals and a plan is important to staying on track and reaching success.

Julian Edwards

Julian Edwards gained an appreciation and passion for health and fitness early in his life. His career in Track and Field began when he was just nine years old. It was through his competitive running – more specifically, sprinting- that Julian learned how dedication, hard work, and a healthy lifestyle were necessary ingredients to performance. As a youth, he ran for three different community club teams where he found success on a national level at the Junior Olympics. In high school, he found himself ranked 2nd in the state for the 400 meter dash and 1st in the Philadelphia Catholic League for the 100, 200, 400, and 4×400 meter races. These successes earned Julian a scholarship to Mount Saint Mary’s University, where he continued to pursue his love of running at the Division 1 level while pursuing a degree in Business. After college, Julian returned to Bishop McDevitt High School to coach his former team. He spent two years as an assistant coach before being promoted to Head Coach of the Cross Country, Indoor, and Outdoor Track and Field teams. Wanting to ensure his athletes’ maximum performance and safety, Julian chose to further his education at the National Personal Training Institute. It was here that he mastered his ability to strengthen the human body, prevent and rehabilitate injuries, and guarantee success. Additionally, the program prepared him for his National Academy of Sports Medicine Certification.
