Hi! My name is Luz Maria Moody, I have been a happy resident of Columbia, SC since 2012. I am originally from Mexico City, and grew up in Cancun. I met my husband Nathan while we both lived in the Bahamas for work in 2009. We got married in September 2012, we have 2 children, Ethan (10) and Colt(6) and a dog, Marley.
I have always been an active person and I found as a young age that exercise relieved the pain caused by many years in gymnastics. I always enjoyed taking group exercise classes, and in 2015 I became a member of the YMCA. It is here where I found my calling as a fitness instructor. I loved watching members get stronger and healthier and pain-free through exercise. In the following years from 2017 till 2020 I was able to get Certified in LM BodyCombat, Licensed in Zumba, Certified as a Parkinson Instructor and get a Group Exercise Foundations Certificate. I was able to teach Aqua aerobics classes and Senior Circuit classes combining my certifications to make a more effective and dynamic class for our members. My adventure continued in different gyms like Empire Barbell and Crunch Fitness and working with senior residents at The Heritage at Lowman.
