Building a Stronger Community

By Kelsey Grudle

The Clubs of Cordillera Ranch welcome new Fitness and Wellness Director Tamra Christiansen.

Born in Midland, Texas, Tamra was raised in nearby Bulverde, and her love for the Texas Hill Country grew strong. She continued to build her life here as she graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio with a Bachelor of Science in Health and an Internship in Pediatric Obesity. Tamra’s passion for fitness started early as a competitive dancer and cheerleader but truly began with her love of running and strength training. 

Tamra has been a fitness and wellness professional for over 20 years and her detailed and personalized approach has helped her maintain a strong career in this industry. Along with her Personal Training Certifications, Tamra teaches a variety of Group Exercise formats including core classes, group cycle, HIIT training, kickboxing, stretch classes, water aerobics, water boot camp and more. She is also available for private and semi-private personal training in 30-minute to one-hour increments to help members focus on specific areas of strengthening. “My approach to personal training and fitness is to address every member’s needs individually to get them to their goals. I have worked with all age ranges and many unique situations. Specific training can help individuals improve their golf, tennis or running game, and I specialize in flexibility and yoga, and that is good for everyone! I have also worked to “pre-hab” prior to surgeries and continue and complement rehab after surgeries,” says Tamra, adding, “I look forward to meeting everyone and I welcome all ideas and suggestions!”

In Tamra’s spare time, she lives a vibrant life running trails with her puppy, Ross, and spending quality time with her husband, Corey, and her two boys, Collin and Caleb. Tamra loves lifting weights, competing in races or triathlons and learning new ways to bring wellness and health into others’ lives. She has a true passion and love for helping people reach their unique fitness goals. Tamra’s motto and continued motivation is, “If you care for your health and wellness first, you are better equipped to care for others.”

Tamra Christiansen is the Fitness & Wellness Director at The Clubs of Cordillera Ranch. She can be reached at tchristiansen@cordilleraranch.com or 210.878.5367.

Challenges. Opportunities. Moving Forward.

Fall has been a busy season for the Agronomy team. This important season kicks off after all the fun of the Ladies’ Ranch Roundup, when we begin our greens aerification process. At the conclusion of this process in October, we have now seen the extraordinary benefit of the deep vertical slicing (Graden device) coupled with the normal aerification of punching holes and backfilling with sand.

Bees and Golf Courses

A long-standing interest of mine has been the benefits of using honey and bee keeping. I have enjoyed honey since I was a child and there are many benefits of having honey in your diet. Honey contains a variety of nutrients, it’s rich in antioxidants and is better for blood sugar levels than regular sugar. Research has shown it to promote heart health, promote burn and wound healing, and help suppress coughing with children.

Amanda Naranjo

Ever since I can remember, I’ve been around the game of golf. From watching golf tournaments on TV with my family to going out to the driving range with my dad during my High School years while on the Golf Team, everything I associate with golf has been positive. I decided to attend the University of the Incarnate Word and major in Fashion Merchandising with a concentration in Business. Fusing both my passion for fashion and love for the game of golf, the golf merchandising path was the perfect path for me.
