Jessica Gillespie

I have been a dancer (mostly in clogging) since I was 8.  I also have some experience in folk dancing from my college years when I was on the folk dance team.   I have performed and competed all around the United States as well as through most of Central America.  This has helped me in my profession as a group fitness instructor, which I have done part time for almost 7 years.  I have also recently received my personal training certificate and have been working with a few clients but plan to grow my clientele.  

I am a role model of healthy living and passionate about what I do!  I love my job because I love to help others.  I love showing people that they are capable of more than they think they are.  I love teaching others how to enjoy having an active lifestyle and do that by building a sense of community in my classes.  It is rewarding to see my participants achieve lasting results and to educate them on not just healthy ways to move, but also healthy ways of life.  The thing I love most about my job is that I am able to help people feel fulfilled physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually and these people are happier after coming to work out with me!  

At some point, I would love to have my own studio where I can educate others in a holistic program that includes, exercise, nutrition, and general wellness.  I would welcome all ages to my center and hope to have some type of mentoring program as well as I feel that is very empowering for participants.
