I have been in the fitness industry for 14 years total, coming from a dance background in high school and college. I have acquired various freestyle certifications and successfully established a place in the Atlanta Fitness industry as a qualified, professional, mature, and motivating instructor as well as Group Fitness Director/Manager. I have worked with 15-25 instructors at a given program time. My last 7 years have been withint the Body Training Systems/ Les Mills International environment, specifically the BodyPump/Group Power formats. I love the idea of people who are dedicated to the idea of fitness as a consistent part of their lifestyle, but am empowered by the idea of those who are just beginning this journey.
