BIO

Valetta SuRae is a physical fitness expert, master personal trainer, international raw food chef, urban garden consultant, health vitalist, author and retired U.S. Army Sergeant Major.

SuRae’s modern approach to fitness, health, and nutrition took shape over her 30 years of service with the U.S. Army as a young army track athlete. Becoming a drill instructor motivated her to continue to help soldiers meet the Army’s standards of physical fitness.  Through her experience as a fitness volunteer to achieving Army Master Fitness Trainer status, her passion for a healthier lifestyle boomed.

SuRae has held other career paths such as Hair Stylist, Barber, and Make-up Artist for Stage, Screen and TV, during which she heard stories from people around the world and from all walks of life.  Everyone seemed to be broken or felt damaged and out of balance in some health way and SuRae was motivated to help them make a change in their lives.  This is what sent her into wellness, vitality, self-care and whole food nutrition. During this retirement evolution, she has finally gotten to the roots of nutrition through Urban Garden Coaching. SuRae is sharing her dream to place an Urban Victory Kitchen Garden with each family or business with a desire to grow food, herbs, edible flowers and beneficial native plants.

With years of experience under her belt, SuRae utilizes drive, determination, and knowledge about age old remedies, natural applications, and natural whole foods to help everyone she can.  She believes that it is simplicity in all these aspects that will enrich the body, empower the individual, and aid in self-care toward desired fitness goals.  Today, SuRae serves as a raw vegan chef, a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, renegade urban garden consultant and lifestyle speaker for fitness, wellness, and nutrition.  She has been featured in the Washington Post, the Military Times, the Stuttgart Citizen, The Morning Call of the Lehigh Valley as well as a featured guest on numerous radio, television shows and podcasts that focus on health, wellness and fitness.

SuRae’s passion for and skill at helping others improve their overall wellness has proven to make a difference in the lives of so many already.  With a personal background in holistic health, fitness, nutrition and gardening, SuRae strives to spread locally sourced (at home) natural food, radiant health and vibrant fitness.
