I have ALWAYS had this innate connection with health, wellness and fitness since a child. One of my fondest memories is wanting a “Get in Shape Girl”, exercise tool to exercise with. “Get in Shape Girl, was the name of a product designed in the 80’s and geared towards girls to encourage them to exercise and fit. There were several tools and videos created under this. When asked my friends if they remembered this product for girls, most say no. I laugh to myself and realize that, yes I was always destined on this path. I became an Army soldier, mother and wife pretty early in life, (yes in that order) and got sidetracked a little on what I was meant to become. I had jobs in IT and it was my career until being laid off and finally deciding to go to school for nutrition. I LOVED the nutrition program and my local 2-year college and got through the program in 1 1/2 years. I began working in the community as a nutrition health educator, then as a nutrition dietetic tech registered in a long term and rehab facility in the inner city. I yearned to educate and teach women about health and wellness on the inside in. So, I decided I wanted to do more. 2019, In March I became a certified personal trainer, May 2019 created my business, Char Fit LLC, end of June, I received a license to teach Strong By Zumba, and I interned at West Philadelphia YMCA as a personal trainer and health and wellness coach. My company is designed in mind of love the skin you are in, by first loving yourself on the inside through mind, body and spirit. I am very passionate to promote and motivate those to love themselves.
