Hello! 👋
I have some new followers lately...Please allow me to introduce myself.
I started out in Finance after college for 3 years quickly learning how energized I was leaving my cubicle to chat with coworkers. I wanted a greater purpose helping people. I knew back in those days I was meant to be a fitness instructor when I saw my passion building when I tried helping the people in my life. I also found so much joy going to Zumba as a student because it reminded me of my cheerleading days growing up. It was as if "growing up" and being serious was a plan I was supposed to do...It wasn't for me.
Fitness is life changing. I wanted to show people that...
I went back to school switching careers.
I have been a certified personal trainer since 2012, (training others in 2011). I worked in a small upscale fitness boutique gym and a larger box gym for 2 years before pursuing my own thing-in home personal training.
I left the public gym life to travel to homes all along the South Shore in 2013. I FINALLY became a Zumba instructor in 2018...Once covid hit, I moved virtually...It wasn't until Covid when I got the courage to begin teaching zumba classes on zoom in April 2020..
I still train one on one clients virtually (love it!). They mostly live in MA, NH, FL.
Again, I mustered up the courage to begin teaching Zumba in person back in February 2024. What a learning experience it has been. My heart is full every time I set up for my class and welcome my students. I feel like a 13 year old girl when I teach...I want to continue feeling young, free and fit as long as I can now that I am in my 40s.
It is those moments of teaching, I have my TIME to feel my best self...so I can be a better wife and mother to my children (10, 3).
We are also a military family! I have been with my husband 19 of his 20 years of service supporting him with 3 long 10 month deployments..My son has been through 2 deployments when he was 3.5 and 7yo. I even gave birth to our daughter on his last tour.
I understand the importance of taking care of ourselves better and reconnecting with our youthful side within us because I have lived it. I understand how easily we as mothers put everyone's needs above our own...
Every day I feel truly absolutely blessed to be doing all that I do. Life is meant to be shared with people.
