I have enjoyed being part of an evolving fitness industry for over 25 years.

Health and fitness is a lifestyle that my family and I enjoy and practice on a daily basis. I enjoy helping people achieve their goals and teach them to adopt a healthy way of living.

Recently, I decided to set a personal goal and began competing in the National Physique Committee, figure division. My first competition, I placed 2nd, and since have placed top 1-5 in each show. This has also allowed me to share more knowledge with my participants in my classes. It helps them to work hard to achieve their goals. I am able to teach many formats and am always willing to learn more styles of teaching to adapt to facilities needs.

I am currently training clients to also become involved in figure competitions.  This has encouraged them to set their sights higher and set more difficult but achievable goals.

Last summer i was asked to design a yoga/no equipment based exercise manuel for a group of women in Hondourus.

This was such an honor and very exciting for me to do. Unfortunately, they have absolutely no resources of equipment for exercise and had shown an interest when my collegues were there for some mission work.

With the help of a friend, i went step by step with yoga's sun salutations and had pictures to display the moves with movement directioins to follow written in both english and spanish. This manuel was taken there and was very well received and easy to follow
