Tanya (Lowe) O'Brien enters her first season as a strength and conditioning coach with NIKE US Sports Camps. She joins the US Sports Camps Tenacity Training staff heavily tenured in the areas of lacrosse, injury prevention and fitness enhancement. In the profession for more than 14 years, O'Brien currently works as a trainer out of the nearby 2000 square foot state of the art training zone, PEX Health and Fitness. There she works alongside world class trainers who work tirelessly to design effective fitness programs tailored to clients needs and abilities.

She is a student of strength and is constantly researching new tactics and techniques to drive her athletes to new heights.

A four-year letterwoman on the University of Lynchburg's lacrosse team, Tanya earned a degree in Physical Education. From there she went on and pursued her passion in the fitness education field when she earned a Masters in Exercise Science with a concentration in Strength and Conditioning from Bridgewater State University. As a former driven scholastic and college student-athlete, O'Brien has enjoyed her time giving back to the sport she loves. She spent 5 years coaching varsity lacrosse in Massachusetts (Ashland HS and Norwood HS). She also trained a talented and competitive Mass Maverick lacrosse club team. Many of these players enjoyed considerable success at the college level.

O'Brien, a Norwood, MA native, is a certified USAW level 1, FMS and is a 200 hour yoga instructor. She has also trained, competed and coached in Olympic Lifting events over the course of her career.
