Erin George

My name is Erin George (Sims) and I am an Algebra teacher, coach, fitness instructor and beach volleyball players.  What I love about teaching is that it allows me to share my many passions with students who share those passions.  Some students volunteer with me at a local animals shelter.  They also help me host a fun run where we have raised over $6000 for that shelter in just two years.  Some students athletes stay after school with me and I lead them in fitness routines.  Still other students join my summer fitness class or play in volleyball tournaments with me over the summer.   

I love being able to share my passions with others and teach them what I know.  My husband and I just got married in September and have bought a new house.  I was just hired as a Pilates and Tabata instructor for a recreation center by our new home.  I am very excited for this new opportunity.  My husband and I would both like to use our summers (he is a teacher and coach too) to of course run more fitness classes and play beach volleyball, but to also travel and share our passions with people in exotic and beautiful places.  Fitness Pro Travel will be perfect for us! 

Two summers ago, I took a trip to Mexico with my mother and sister to celebrate the life of my father who had passed away just one year prior.  My sister and I did Yoga each morning with an amazing instructor named Casey.  Casey, encouraged me to become a certified group fitness instructor and she emailed me info about Fitness Pro Travel.  I have been working very hard since then, studying for the ACE certification exam and working to get more experience.  My husband and I are both teachers and do not make enough money to satisfy our travelling desires.  Being a part of this organization would allow us to travel inexpensively for some of our summer!  Since I do the workouts on vacations anyway, why not lead them?!  I cannot wait to get started with this program and I am so thankful to Casey for encouraging me!
