Manager

I played college football at the University of Mary. There I attended school & graduated with my Bachelors degree in Exercise Science. I was a personal trainer in college. Once I finished my degree I went on to purchase a gym, & I also opened up my own supplement store & smoothie bar. During this time I also started my own training company. A few years later I was approached to be the GM of a few Snap Fitness clubs & decided to take on the opportunity to turn those clubs around. After i was finished with college sports, I got into bodybuilding. I won my first show & got hooked from there. I went on to compete for about 7 more years. In my training company I worked with just about every type of client from weight loss, elderly, to those with health concerns, MMA, bodybuilding & fitness competitors, athletes, etc. Which brings me to where I am today. Working for a great company like Anytime Fitness & looking to help you reach your health and fitness goals.

Sami Johnson

Manager

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a dual minor in English as a Second Language and Global Perspectives. I grew up being active and involved in all kinds of different sports. For several years I worked at youth camps, teaching sports development to 3-5 year olds. After getting involved with weightlifting in college, I became a certified personal trainer and worked as the Assistant Fitness Manager at a local gym. My passion for fitness comes from all of the wonderful people I have met in this industry. I truly enjoy listening and learning from other people’s journeys and helping out in any way that I can. When I’m not working at the gym I love to travel, hike and, above all, eat breakfast and drink coffee!

**Member Support Manager** While growing up as a kid I played pretty much every sport known to man, that passion for athletics and health. That passion continued into high school all the way into college at Dickinson State University where I had the opportunity to play football and become a Hawk. At this time is where I knew I wanted to be in the Fitness field. Through this time of pursuing a degree in Exercise Science and Coaching, I started coaching Track and Field for the High School and Middle school in town which I continued for 8 seasons. In my free time you could always find me in the gym, so when I got the chance to work in one, I took it. I am currently working for Anytime Fitness and loving helping people get started in the right direction to reach their fitness goals.

Stephanie Tangedal

Manager

*Club Manager* My passion for health and fitness started with yoga over 15 years ago. My love and passion for yoga has become somewhat of annoyance to all those around me because I am constantly telling everyone how it can help them with EVERYTHING. Three years ago I completed my 200ryt training and have been teaching yoga ever since. I am currently working towards my 500 hour ryt, personal training certification and continuing my education online. I know exactly what it feels like to be new to the gym as the first time I stepped into the weight room at a gym was two years ago when I took this job. Every day I get to meet new members and help them get comfortable in the gym, set them up for success and watch them grow in health! Fitness has become my passion because I have seen the amazing changes it can bring first hand with myself, as well as every day with our members. I love what I do and I would love to celebrate your fitness success with you!

Shawn Alder

Trainer

I grew up in a small town in Montana, but I have now lived in Dickinson for the past eight years. I originally moved up here to play football and attend Dickinson State University, where I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science. Ever since graduation, my wife Megan and I wanted to stay here and call Dickinson home. We love the size of the town, the location, and the people in the community. I am an ACE (American Council of Exercise) certified Personal Trainer and I started working at Anytime Fitness in 2015. My goal is to get people started on the right path, so that they will be able to succeed in athletics, daily movements, better health, nagging injuries, and/or any other challenges they may face in life.

Wyatt Hagler

Trainer

Growing up, sports and coaching were a huge part of my life. Coaching has been in my family for generations, with my grandfather being an accomplished wrestling coach in Montana to my parents who are both longtime coaches. I can’t remember a time in my life where I wasn’t at a practice or around a weight room. My passion for fitness really kicked off around my freshman year in college. I played football at DSU and was much too small for my position at the time. I made a choice then and there to get into the gym and found great enjoyment in it. I changed my major to exercise science to pursue a career in strength and conditioning and finished out my playing career. I have had so many impactful people and coaches in my life that helped me along the way and I want to be a positive impact in the lives of others. Now I want more than anything to take what I’ve learned and use it to help others. There’s always something we can work on and that’s my favorite thing about the gym.

I continued my education at whitewater and finished with a Masters of Science and Education with an emphasis in Athletic Administration. During my masters I helped coach the linebackers and special teams and was a board member for our warhawk leadership academy. My passion for fitness comes from multiple years of being involved in athletics and helping at risk individuals achieve their goals.
