Certification: Group Fitness Instructor, TRX, Spinning, AED, O2, First Aid

Personal Bio: My love of fitness started years ago when a friend invited me to Jazzercize in college. I loved it and have been working out ever since! I’m in my 26th year of teaching here at the Y. I have taught a variety of classes – Bootcamp, TRX, Cycling, HIIT, Cyclebox, Kickboxing, Kettlebells, Step, Yoga/Pilates, Aerobics, etc. I am fortunate enough to share my love of fitness with my daughter, Michelle. She stepped up to become a fitness instructor when I had foot surgery and needed a sub! Outside of the Y, I enjoy hiking, biking and motorcycling with my husband, Scott and I love spending time with my family. 

My goal is to encourage others to help spark that positive energy that comes from moving your body! Over the years, fitness has been an incredible outlet for me when life got rough. On the days that I didn’t think I could “do life”, exercising saved me. The Y is a great community of people who inspire me and motivate each other!
