Mary McQueen
Chief Executive Officer & Owner
McQueen has over 14 years of experience as a successful MOMLETA franchise owner. Mary comes from a family of successful entrepreneurs, bringing the experience necessary to expand our MOMLETA fitness franchise system to more moms across the country.
Mary McQueen is an ACSM-certified personal trainer living in Oakland with her husband and three children, Liam (14), Sinead (11), and Jameson (9). Mary started taking Momleta classes in early 2008. She was about 30 pounds overweight before she got pregnant with her first son, Liam, and put on 50 pounds during pregnancy. She lost all of the weight while attending Momleta classes, but, more importantly, she gained a supportive community of like-minded moms that she is still best friends with to this day.
MOMLETA truly changed Mary’s life. After she gave birth to Liam in 2007, she quit her office job, and really didn’t know what to do with herself. When the previous owner of her Momleta franchise asked her to become an instructor for her, she made a career change and jumped at the chance - she knew how important taking the classes were for her own postpartum healing, and knew she had a real success story she could share with other moms. A year later, the owner decided to sell, and Mary, again, seized the opportunity and bought her Oakland franchise in April 2009.
Mary is excited to bring more franchise opportunities to moms just like you throughout the country!
Kristen Horler
Founder
Born out of necessity, MOMLETA arrived shortly after Kristen Horler's first child in August 2001. After extensive research, she was unable to find an effective workout that didn't require hiring a personal trainer and a babysitter.
Drawing from her experience as a personal trainer and new mom, Kristen developed MOMLETA to balance the fitness needs of new moms with their desire to spend time with their baby.
Kristen Horler has been a certified fitness professional since 1997. She is an author, presenter, and a continuing education provider for the American Council on Exercise.
Kristen is passionate about food, fitness, and inspiring wellness. She completed her Masters of Science degree in Nutrition at Northeastern University in December 2015 and believes in being a student of life. She is passionate about sharing the power of whole food plant-based nutrition and she enjoys cooking, spending time with her family, and traveling.
