I am passionate about getting everyone moving so that their quality of life is better. I personally began my fitness journey 25 years ago after being involved in a severe head-on collision. As a young teenager I was told that I’d be managing back and neck pain for the rest of my life. Regular exercise has been the most effective method to keep my discomfort at bay. Movement has been life-giving to me and I believe that every person who chooses movement as a lifestyle will reap rewards that money cannot buy. I became a cycle and TRX instructor in order to encourage others to join me in the fitness journey to better ourselves physically and mentally. Every person has a story and I want to learn more about you as we exercise our bodies and grow stronger every day!
