Ashlee Rzyczycki

I have been involved in group fitness since I was in college (from 1996-2000). In 2006, I decided that I was ready to get certified. I had been implementing exercise and fitness programs in my work at University of Kentucky Extension, but I thought it was time to take my passion to a new level. I have my certification through JUMP start (or the faith based organization Faithfully Fit). With that certification I can teach group fitness and step. Since then I have also got certification in ZUmba (level 1,2 and toning), YogaFit, and Pilates. I have gone to numerous continuing education conferences such as the AFPA, DCAC, IDEA, where I have learned and received Continuing Education credits in kickboxing, step, Pilates/Yoga, Boot Camp implementation, Stability Ball classes, Bosu ballast ball and balance training classes, fitness/yoga/and ballet fusion, body sculpting, interval training, and Gliding. Currently I serve in the capacity of running and operating a fitness center located at Saint Vincent Medical Health Center in Erie, PA. At the studio, I do a majority of the classes, including the Warrior (kickboxing), urban rebouding (mini trampolines), Gliding, Graceful Fitness (standing pilates along with fitness yoga fusion), All about the Core (which incorporates all different tools to focus on core strengthing and balance), and Zumba.
