Nikki Covington

Fitness is my passion.  I love exercising on my own as much as I love instructing.  I invest tremendous amounts of time creating the perfect atmosphere for students to work out and have fun.  As you will see from my resume, I hold certifications in TRX, Spinning and Group Fitness, and am currently studying for my personal training exam through ACE.  I am experienced teaching several different exercise formats such as Cycle, TRX, Nike Training Club, HIIT and bootcamp.  I am also comfortable teaching a wide range of students, from a sold out class to 2 or 3 students, beginners to experienced athletes.

I have completed numerous full and half marathons and compete in endurance events regularly.  I bring the same approach to my classes.  Although the students are working hard, they are encouraged to work at their own levels and have fun.  I use my educational background & fitness training to help others achieve their fitness goals.

In the fitness industry, everything is visual.  I exercise regularly and maintain a healthy lifestyle.  It is extremely important to me that my students and clients see me living the fit life.  I lead by example hoping to empower others to adopt a healthy lifestyle.

I currently teach group fitness classes at the YMCA of New Rochelle, 24 Hour Fitness, FIT RxN and Studio 360.  I love instructing.  I have a passion for fitness and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.  This passion comes across when I teach.  I greet each member by first name, inquire about injuries, give instructions on bike mechanics, TRX suspension ropes or weights, and then explain what the workout consists of.  I feel this is necessary to make students as comfortable with the workout and me as possible.  

I am more than happy to speak with your more about my qualifications and answer any questions you may have.  Thank you for your time.
