Meet Heather Boyle of Determination Lab in Redondo Beach

Today we’d like to introduce you to Heather Boyle.

So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I grew up in Boston. Then moved to Florida for college and landed a shiny corporate job before graduating. Feeling uninspired working a day job, I transferred to the LA office thinking that would be enough of a shakeup. My 8-5 just wasn’t cutting it. The hardest part was coming back to my desk after doing BoxingYoga on my lunch break.

I knew I had to make a decision.

Stay at my comfortable, salary corporate job, or courageously devote myself to a new career in fitness?

I had 4 months experience Boxing and practiced Yoga for a year. Beyond being a natural athlete, that was the extent of my physical activity.

A few months after moving from the east coast to LA, desiring an opportunity in the fitness industry, I became certified in BoxingYoga & Boxing at the Box ‘N Burn academy.

POWER MOVE! I took my education all the way to the top, working for LA’s #1 Boxing & Fitness gym, and traveling the world teaching BoxingYoga.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
The biggest challenge I faced was FEAR. Moving coast to coast, by myself, was scary not only for me but for my family. I have always have had the confidence to make it, even in one of the largest cities in the country; but intimidating nevertheless. I do my best to perceive struggles as opportunities to grow myself.

Determination Lab – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
I specialize in mental & physical conditioning to achieve maximum performance.

I’m most known for rigorous Boxing & BoxingYoga training. Physical training translates to mental conditioning pushing past your mental limits through the body. I am most proud of the energetic value I bring to every encounter. I aim to be electrifying. To leave situations better than found. I am the most upbeat, spirited individual & I intent to share the gold in me. What sets Determination Lab apart is the experience; the process in gaining the desired result.

What is “success” or “successful” for you?
I define success as the amount of happiness you carry with you to the finish line.

We all just want to be happy. When a goal is achieved its a short burst of happiness or content, so the main goal is to enjoy the process of getting to the result. Success is enjoyment.
