My interest in fitness started with sports as a kid. My first love was swimming, and from an early age, I was competitive, winning state records from age 4. I played competitive tennis in high school and was a collegiate rower for Boston University (elite open weight 8).
I danced as a kid too…. some Ballet, jazz, HipHop…..and then taught lots of aerobics (getting certified at the Candy Colby School of Aerobics in Ft Lauderdale, yes ask me about that! and teaching some of the first Reebok Step classes).
Fast forward about 10 years and a marriage, event planning career, baby and move back to VT later…. and it was back to fitness instruction. I taught classes in all the local facilities and when several years, an older school-aged child and a divorce were part of the mix, the more I did, the more I was scattered and wanting something different and definitely something more!
I started to educate myself. Dance Conventions, Pilates Instructor Trainings, Aquatic Exercise Workshops, (re) licensing Zumba Fitness®. I knew it was time to take the leap and open my own business. It started small and grew to include MMMA and Hot Yoga Stowe, more personal training, more Pilates, and specialties.
Weathering the storm and coming out better, stronger and hopefully wiser is my motto. I’m happiest delivering the best of myself to my clients and students.
