Mary Tolentino Stuve

I was born & raised in San Diego, CA. I graduated from Mira Mesa High in San Diego, CA where I ran track and cross country. I graduated from San Diego State University with a B.S. in Business Information Systems. After working the corporate business world for a while, I decided to go do my passion which is fitness. I hold 3 Personal Training certifications in addition to several specialty certifications.  I have been teaching here at 24 Hour Fitness and Camp Pendleton for over six years conducting teaching Group Exercise.  Yoga & Aqua are my favorite formats I have taught for over 10 years.  I am used to teaching yoga to large groups from 18-30 at 24 hour fitness.  My normal routine is at least minimum 10 minutes warm up of sun salutations .  I give the class an option to "opt out" of any sequence if their body tells them to.  I also give them an option to do more advanced poses if they practice that regularly.  So a lot depends on who is in my class on how I will teach it.  If the group seems de conditioned I will scale the class down.  I always offer modifications for all poses . I look forward to teaching yoga at one of your resorts.
