I grew up playing all kinds of sports, and then going through school I played competitive sports throughout the year.  Near the end of High School I became very involved in yoga, pilates, and I also took some ballet classes.  I loved what these classes did for my strength, balance, and overall well-being.  I continued to do these types of workouts throughout the years, often on my own as we lived in an area that didn’t have an excellent choice of gyms.  I decided to get certified in Yoga years ago because I loved it so much. Once I moved to Castle Rock I started finding classes that fit what I wanted.  After attending classes for awhile at one of the studios, I was asked to become a certified instructor by the owner so that I could be an instructor there.  I began by getting the AFAA Group Fitness certification, and have loved teaching Barre ever since.  I also obtained my certification in Corebar and have taught that for the last couple of years as well.  I have taught Pilates, Barre, Yoga, and Corebar.  I love hearing people’s feedback about how strong they have gotten with my Barre classes, how quickly they see their bodies change, and how Barre works muscles that they didn’t know existed.  I love how these classes work every muscle from top to bottom, how good it is for your body functionally, and how great you can feel after less than an hour.
