Hi I am Mary Mendez Rizzo. Moving and being active is one of the joys of life! Movement activities like Yoga, stretching, sports and martial arts, coupled with my faith, have been integral to helping me maintain a balanced, healthy lifestyle. I have a Master degree in Counseling, a second degree blackbelt in karate and RYT200 certification. I have taught all ages and abilities, and can modify workouts for singles, couples, and aqua environment.
I love sharing my passion for health and wellness with others. My goal is for every student to have wins, because small gains are FUN, lead to increased confidence, increased self-esteem, and leave students with the feeling of wanting to come back again and again.
For me there are two things that make teaching with Fit Bodies special: 1) making connections with people from different parts of the world, and 2) knowing that the classes I teach add to an amazing vacation experience for resort patrons.
