Fitness is my passion!  I have worked in the fitness industry for 30 years and still love it.  As a former dancer, I began teaching group fitness in 1983.  I pursued a degree in Exercise Science from Iowa State University and graduated with my B.S. in 1988. I have held a variety of positions in fitness since then.  Currently I manage the Public Wellness Program for the City of Ames, Iowa.  I manage a staff of 25 fitness instructors and 5 personal trainers.  Teaching group fitness classes is still the highlight of my week.  I currently teach 10-12 classes a week.  As a manager I teach all the classes offered on our group fitness schedule but my favorites include Zumba, Zumba toning, Step, Spinning Classes, High Intensity Interval Training, Pilates, Strength classes and TRX.   My Zumba classes can draw up to 100 people! I have always loved the ability to work with people in reaching their fitness goals.   I am excited for the opportunity to work at a resort and provide excellent group fitness classes!
