SLAM Boss

Kathryn Fanning | kathryn@sweatlikeamother.com

Kathryn is a certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach, an ACE certified Group Fitness Instructor, and a Fitness Nutrition Specialist. She holds her BLS (Basic Life Support) certificate through the American Heart Association. Kathryn likes making fitness work into everyone’s daily lives and loves to make working out fun. She loves running and HIIT workouts, and seeing children cheer on their strong moms is one of her favorite parts about SLAM.

Kathryn is originally from Columbia, SC but thanks to being a military spouse, she has lovingly made Southern Pines home since 2016. She has a B.A. and a M.Ed. in Education and taught middle school math before staying at home with her 4 children. Kathryn found SLAM in early 2019, and loved it so much that she became an instructor that summer. She was thrilled to take ownership of SLAM Southern Pines in the summer of 2020. She loves learning and is always taking new courses to help grow her knowledge of fitness and support her SLAM mamas.

“SLAM is the most unique and powerful community that I have ever been a part of. These women genuinely love, support and care for each other. Seeing the mamas and littles cheer each other on at SLAM and in life might be the best feeling ever. It has been an absolute blessing to be able to continue to grow this incredible village here in Southern Pines. SLAM Southern Pines is like no other…come see what we are all about!”

The Southern Pines Team

Katie Paquette | Instructor 

Katie holds a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science, is an ACE certified Group Fitness Instructor, CPR & AED certified, and has completed a Core to Floor course focusing on postpartum pelvic floor health.

Katie is an Army spouse and a mom to three kids. She has been living the SLAM life since 2018 where she first became a member at SLAM Fayetteville. After a short time her family moved to Tennessee and she quickly relied on SLAM Clarksville to be her new community. In 2021 Katie made the decision to become an instructor at SLAM. She fell in love with leading a group of strong moms who dedicate time for their health all while showing their kids how amazing moms can be.

Fast forward to June 2024, with yet another PCS move back to North Carolina, this time in the Southern Pines area. Katie is no stranger to SLAM, and was quickly added to the instructor squad!

Aside from an extensive SLAM history, Katie also enjoys getting outside with her family, running, and coaching her kids’ soccer and basketball teams. When she gets the occasional night off from mom life she loves live music, a local brewery, and of course a fun Mom Night Out with other SLAM moms!

Lily | Instructor 

Lily is a mom of two boys, a proud Army spouse, and a registered nurse. She joined SLAM in 2024 after the birth of her first son. What started as a way to get out of the house as a new stay-at-home mom, quickly became something SO much more. SLAM gave her a sense of community she had been craving, while also helping her rebuild strength postpartum. She enjoys the combination of running and strength training that defines the SLAM workout style, which has recently carried her through her second pregnancy and postpartum recovery as well!

With the support and encouragement of Kathryn, Lily became an ACE-certified group fitness instructor in fall 2025. She also holds a CPR/AED certification through the AHA. Lily is passionate about giving back to the SLAM community the same support she received when she needed it most—helping other moms feel strong, confident, and supported in every season.

Outside of fitness, Lily enjoys spending time outdoors with her family and exploring all that this magical area has to offer!

“This group brings together a group of strong women that lean on each other to get stronger. The workout is tough, but the community makes it fun and keeps me coming back. There is a place here for all fitness levels with no judgment- only encouragement. Love this group and would highly recommend!”

Katie C.

I look forward to going and getting my sweat on, I have never been stronger or felt more confident with my body. However, this group is more than just getting fit together. This group is an amazing supportive community of strong, fun-loving women. Women who have become more than just work out companions, more than just friends but have become family.”

Allie M.

Amazing workout that comes with an even better group of ladies! Every workout is different and fun, and I love the kids’ playgroups and mom’s night out! I LOVE this group!”
