Hello :)

My most recent fitness journey began after the birth of my daughter 7 years ago.  I got back in shape using P90X in the comfort of my own home.  After completing that program several times and the birth of my son a couple years later I was ready for something new.  I joined my local YMCA and became a regular at group fitness classes.  After awhile I was again ready for something new.  We live in Michigan on an inland lake and my kids love the water, however, I was not able to swim.  So I decided to sign up for a Triathlon in order to give myself a deadline on learning to swim.  I  joined the Triathlon team at the YMCA and learned to swim.  Since then I have become an active member of the team and this year I will complete my first Ironman.  In the meantime, I was spending so much time training and competeing in sporting events, I decided to get my ACE Personal Trainging certification and became a personal trainer and group fitness instructor.  I have taught Deep Water Fitness classes, Cycling classes (my own programming as well as MOSSA's R30 and Group Ride), Group Circuit training classes, MOSSA's Group Active classes, Sculpt and Tone, and HIIT classes.  As I  mentioned, I am also a personal trainer and I have several one on one clients as well as small groups ( up to 4).  While I have not taught any specific kid programming I do have a couple kids in my small group trainings and with 2 kids of my own (6.5 yrs and 4yrs.) I fell confident I could put together an age appropriate program if necessary. 

I am currenlty in the process of earning my Ace Health Coach Certification in order to widen my scope of practice to include Nutrition and Health Behavioral Sciences.  I am passionate about what I do and I love helping people get healthy.   

Health and Wellness is a part of my everyday life, whether on vaction or at home.  I look forward to opportunites to get to know other people through this program and help others while also enjoying a working vacation.
