Tracy Newman

HI! I am Tracy and I have been a group fitness professional for more than three years. I got my start teaching Les Mills' RPM at Merritt Athletics Clubs, a Baltimore-based chain of health clubs. After my initial certification, I earn two more indoor cycling certifications so that I could increase my knowledge base and what I offered my students. Outside of the cycle room, I now teach R.I.P.P.E.D., a full body, head-to-tow workout program that combines resistence training, cardio, kickboxing, HIIT and plyos all in one class.

You'll find I have very eclectic taste in music and you'll likely hear everything from rock to rap to pop to punk. I try to find something for everyone because nothing motivates you to work harder than a song you connect with. 

In addition to holding a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism - University of Maryland, College Park, I also hold certifications in the following areas:

• AFFA Certified
• Les Mills - RPM Certification;
• Cycling Fusion - Indoor Cycling Certification;
• Schwinn Fitness - Indoor Cycling Instructor Certification;
• R.I.P.P.E.D Certified
• Adult CPR and AED Training Certification
