Monique Fortmann

I am married and have two adult children.  I am retired after working as the Director of a Continuing Education program in Missoula, MT for over 30 years.  I also instruct group fitness, yoga, barre, pickleball, and cycling classes in a variety of formats.  

These classes are my "escape".  They energize my soul and keep me motivated to stay fit.  The rewards of teaching these classes are never-ending.  I take pride in helping those new to fitness or a new type of class feel comfortable in their skin and their abilities and look forward to achieving their personal goals.  I have individuals of all ages in my classes and I am able to modify the exercises so everyone can participate at a safe level.

I am an outdoor enthusiast and take advantage of the great recreational opportunities such as hiking, mountain biking, road bike, trail running in the mountains, playing pickleball, water skiing and snow skiing.  My guilty pleasure is traveling to the Caribbean where I can workout everyday!  

I am always honored and humbled when people take the time out of their busy schedules to attend one of my classes and this motivates me to work harder.
