I started out playing sports my whole childhood and into high school so I was very into fittness and staying healthy. I started working at the Dallas Aquatic Center in 2002 at first as a lifeguard. I year later I was certified to teach Water Aerobics and have taught every class we offer at one time or another. I have taught Aquacise, River Romp (a high cardio class which utalizes a river we have in one of our pools, Deep water, and Joint Efforts ( Therapy class targeted for people with joint issues).I have also taught Kid Fit which is a aqua aerobic class for kids. In Kid Fit we aim for the kids to have fun while excersing so that it doesnt really seem like excercise, we play lots of games and races!  Whithin the last year I took a CEC class from Craig Stuart who is the founder of Hydro-Fit. I love teaching Aqua fittness classes and plan to do it for my whole life! I am also CPR certified and WSI certified (Red Cross certification for Swim Instrutor).
