The Owners

Scott__Kristie_9740

Kristie and Scott Lemon bring over 30 years of experience in fitness training swimming instruction, adventure sports, nutrition, and health awareness to their training on land and in their salt-water pool. The retired body builders have been training themselves and others for years. But when people in the gym they worked out in started asking the couple to train them, Scott and Kristie realized that their part-time passion could evolve into a fulltime career.

The couple moved to Bend from Olympia, Washington in 2004, found an idyllic piece of property and began to build the facility they would aptly name High Desert Oasis. They did all the construction on their facility—from the foundation to the picture windows that frame the high desert landscape—and launched High Desert Oasis in 2006.

Scott, started with his first weights at age 12 and never put them down.  He has since turned his love into a gift he gives others.  Showing them how to work smarter not harder, helping people recover from injury and surpass their previous atheletic abilities.

Scott and Kristie custom tailor each weight and cardiovascular session for their clients based on goals, lifestyle, abilities, and challenges.

In the pool, small aqua aerobics classes (limit five students) allow for personal attention as participants raise their fitness level and tone their bodies.

Kristie, a veteran swimming instructor, teaches students ages 6 months to 90+ years old how to be safe and have fun in the water.  She helps people develop a relationship with the water giving them confidence in their stroke and ability to improve on their own.

Whether on land or in the water, Kristie and Scott’s supportive attitudes and gregarious personalities make work-outs safe, fun and surprisingly effective. Give yourself the opportunity to discover what is really possible.

Testimonials

  • The marvelous facility that Scott and Kristie designed and created is the perfect place to start or maintain your commitment to health and fitness.   I love the pool and worked with Kristie to overcome some flexibility problems with my cranky neck.   On one occasion, I was in the pool which was, of course, the perfect temperature, and it was snowing big, fat flakes outside.  It was heaven.

  • Swim lessons have really paid off.  Tenley has been a little waterbug on our vacation.  She's even diving to the bottom to get her dive sticks.  We were helping her at first but than she'd dive under and use her arms and legs to get to the bottom.

  • Thanks Scott and Kristie, for making me strong again. I am back to 18 months ago strong [probably stronger] but in addition the shoulder and back pain that I have had for 4 years is under control. I sleep without pain all night.
