I first started in the fitness world when I was 36, with the opening “The Body Shop Aerobic Studio” in Lantana, Florida. This was an exciting venture where I learned to instruct fitness classes while meeting incredible fitness students and professionals along the way. I marketed my business by appearing on TV demonstrating Aerobic Exercise. During this time I helped other fitness instructors create exercise videos on location and worked with them at my studio.
Before coming to Huntington Lakes, I worked in New York City managing private health clubs and instructing exercise classes for five years. I was also the manager of “Club 30” on The Upper West Side and in charge of it’s restaurant. Working in Manhattan formed me into a more knowledgeable and sophisticated fitness professional.
Working in fitness has changed my life and dreams in many positive ways. The main reason I love exercise soo much is because I get to help others become fit and healthy. Although exercise is important for fitness and health I believe it should be fun too. Many of the classes I instruct are athletic such as Cardio Training or gentler in nature like Yoga, but other classes are just incredibly fun like Zumba and Zumba Gold. I enjoy not only teaching exercise classes but also helping each individual reach their fitness goals.
I have worked for Huntington Lakes for 24 years and it is an honor to work at such a great place where I have learned soo much from our senior athletes. Whether you see me instructing classes, engaging in conversation or personal training I always have an ear open to you.
