Amanda Rogers

Hello!!

My name is Amanda, i am a 22 year old group fitness instructor/personal trainer with a bachelors degree from University of Central Florida in Exercise Science. My journey in fitness began when  i was a freshman in high school. I played soccer and lacrosse. I loved every minute of conditioning, and being pushed to my limits while having fun at the same time. After high school, I started taking classes at lifestyle family fitness and fell in love with the Body Combat class. It's a mixed martial arts inspired workout, choreographed my Les Mills Professionals. Mean while, in college i enrolled in a group fitness class to obtain the credit but little did i know i would receive my first job in the fitness field as well as the stepping stone to where i am now. The professor ended up being the UCF Recreation and Wellness center Coordinator. She offered me a position at the gym as a Fitness Attendant because she saw my potential. I jumped on the opportunity and was hired and working in less that a month. Soon later i received my AFAA group fitness certification and taught my first kickboxing class in January 2012. I knew immediately i found my niche. About 3 months later i proceeded to obtain my Body Combat certification. My passion for group fitness is indescribable. I love motivating large groups and seeing people break a sweat while having fun! It's a great way to spike the fitness bug we all possess! After being submerged in group fitness, i decided to pursue personal training. Throughout my time at the University of Central Florida i received the Fitness Employee of the year award and was also elected as one of the Biggest Loser Trainers. This experience was unforgettable and brought my passion for health and fitness to an entire different level. After working at the UCF gym for 2 years as a trainer and group exercise instructor, I graduated with my degree in exercise science and transferred to 24 hour fitness in downtown Orlando. I currently  teach Body Combat and work as a personal trainer. My passion for fitness remains stronger than ever. I am eager to take on new endeavors and help people discover the fitness bug they hold within. I am dedicated and determined to assisting others make health, fitness, happiness, balance and confidence permanently apart of their every day life. Mind, Body AND Spirit!!!
