Laura Coggins

I have been an active my entire life.  When I had the opporutnity to take early retirement for a life long executive sales career, I set a goal to become a Personal Trainer at 60 years old.  I received my ACE Personal Trainer certification in 2019.  Initially thinking I would focus on Personal Training for the older population, I realized I loved Group Fitness. I began teaching at my local YMCA and in 2020 was hired by Cliff's Communities as a group fitness instructor.  Cliff's Communities is located in upstate South Carolina and Western North Carolina.  The Cliffs is made up of seven (7) affluent communities whose mission is to deliver wellness to its members/residents.  I teach an average of 8 to 10 classes per week that range from Cycle, Balance & Mobility, and Strength & Cardio.  In addition to my ACE Certification, I am certified as a Schwinn Cycle Instructor and currently working on my Barre and TRX certification. I am an avid Pickleball player, playing 5+ times per week.  I consider myself a solid 4.0+ pickleball player.
