Joy Bartel

Joy holds a Bachelor of Arts in English and proudly served in the United States Air Force for two years.  She has been privileged to live in Kalispell, Montana since 2003 with her husband and ten children.  Joy currently works at three Gym locations in the Flathead Valley teaching over a dozen classes every week! She just recently returned from Los Cabos, Mexico where she taught Zumba and AquaZumba at the Hyatt Ziva.

She is passionate about Group Fitness because she believes exercise is so important for a healthy lifestyle for ALL ages and abilities.  She strives to create an atmosphere of inspiration, commitment, and support in all her classes, as the best means to achieve anyone's fitness goals.  Most importantly, she wants all her classes to be fun and feel like a party that includes everyone in the room!  Look for her on the dance floor teaching Zumba, ZumbaGold, and AquaZumba.
