I am an ACE certified Group Fitness Instructor and teach bootcamp and TRX classes at my local YMCA in Richmond, Virginia. I have been involved in sports and fitness my entire life as a swimmer, cheerleader and runner and can honestly say that fitness is my passion. Fitness is very important to me as I lost both my parents very early to diabetes and kidney failure. I share my love for being active with others because I can, not because I have to. I enjoy having members of various age groups and fitness levels in my class and encourage them to do their best every day. At the end of each workout, I always ask my class how they feel. As they are out of breath, sweating and smiling, I tell them that the feeling they have at that moment will be what brings them back the next day!
My husband and I love to travel and are always looking for a resort with a good gym. I enjoy working out while on vacation and think it's important to have a strong mind/ body connection. I would like to be able to share my passion for fitness with others in a resort setting as they can really focus on their personal goals.
