Sandy Schumacher

Hi!  I'm Sandy!  I am a full time teacher, full time mom, and full time fitness enthusiast!  My kids are my world and at 4.5 and 2.5, they keep me on my toes!  I also teach young children: 4 year old kindergarten.  To say I love children is totally true!  My family drives my why behind all that I do and they are one of the best things in my life!  Being a teacher has been my first passion for many years; I love the sponges that they are and how excited they are about learning !

I am also an avid obstacle race runner; I am training and ready to tackle a Spartan Trifecta and my second Tough Mudder this year!  My husband is always right by my side, supporting me, and has finally gotten into a routine to help him get through the obstacles (although, his reason behind it is really for elk hunting!).  We will be traveling around the US this summer to fit everything in and are both super excited for this challenge!

As for fitness, I started my journey with at home workouts and graduated to taking certifications to teach live classes.  I am delving into the topic of personal training more seriously than I ever thought I would, since I do love teaching.  I have found a passion for teaching fitness and enjoy the challenges of learning the routines and helping my class perfect their form and get the most out of an exercise without hurting themselves; I'm a stickler for form!

In my spare time, which is never between fitness, teaching, and children, I do like to read (more audiobooks!) and I enjoy bow hunting in the fall and turkey hunting in the spring.  My family is super close, so we visit each other all the time.
