Angela Martin

I am a 24-year-old fitness professional from Lansing, Michigan. I got started in the fitness field by teaching group exercise while attending Central Michigan University for a Bachelors of Science. I have been teaching since 2002 and have earned many certifications since (see certs/education). During my senior year at CMU an internship was required, and that's how I found MediFit Corporate Services. I had a 3-month internship in Orlando, FL, working at the Bank One Fitness Center. I am still with MediFit but have been promoted to Senior Health Fitness Specialist (SHFS) at the LifeWise Fitness Center in Ann Arbor, MI. As an SHFS I have many responsibilities including programming, member tracking, designing personalized exercise programs, nutrition consultations, and group exercise. While my current position allows me to demonstrate my skills in areas such as programming and budgets, group exercise still remains my passion. I am the Group Exercise Coordinator as well as the Safety Coordinator at the LifeWise Fitness Center and I love the daily interaction with the other instructors and the members. I currently teach cardio kickboxing, step, sculpting, core, hi-low, spinning, and would even feel confident teaching a water class if necessary. Working with people to help them reach their fitness goals and create a healthier life for themselves is a great feeling. I love working in the fitness field, and I know that I will continue to grow as a fitness professional for many years to come.
