Martha Lord

Marti Lord is an aquatic instructor with a passion for fitness. For the past 5 years she has trained either as a student or as an instructor in the aquatic environment. She is a role model for her students with a healthy lifestyle and mind-body fitness ethics by which she lives. In addition to this, Marti has had arthritis for the past 24 years. The only visible signs of it, however, are in her hands. Not succombing to defeat or masking medications, Marti has battled this illness with dogged determination over all these years with very positive results. Water training is one of the most soothing and effective means of obtaining or maintaining a superior level of fitness with any of the forms of Arthritis as well as with numerous other seemingly limiting conditions. Yoga has proven to be the perfect mind-body balance with weight-bearing land work. Furthermore, the ability to focus on breathing techniques while increasing strength and flexability coupled with the relaxation of the mind have made a big difference in overall wellness. My life mission is to share with others my success in this area and assist them in attaining their goals of wellness and fit minds and bodies at any age.
