Emily Mailliard

I am passionate about fitness because it has helped me drop 100 pounds and keep it off over the past 8 years! I am a motivational, upbeat, and high-energy fitness instructor who strives to reach all people in my classes, whether they are super fit, beginners, or have physical limitations. I am familiar with and frequently employ modifications and injury prevention methods in my classes. I love to help people reach their weight loss and fitness goals, which is why I also enjoy being a personal trainer. I was previously certified as a YMCA personal trainer and now have an AFAA personal trainer certification. I love working one-on-one with clients to design exercise programs that are right for them. I am also a middle school Spanish teacher and I am fluent in Spanish. This skill has allowed me to interact with many of our Spanish-speaking clients at our YMCA. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Chris, for 6 years.
