YMCA Personal training

I am the Healthy Living/Fitness Coordinator at the Forest City Y.  I work at the front desk and have been increasingly involved in fitness and exercise programming. New members come to me for fitness orientation to the weight room and cardio room.  I enjoy working one on one with people to help them discover their own health and wellness. I have taught Interval Action, HITT, Spin, Stretch, and Kickboxing classes.   I am an avid cyclist and after suffering from plantar fasciitiss became a swimmer too! I have a black belt in taekwondo and brown belt in hapkido. I have been teaching self-defense classes for 30 years. Teaching people about self-defense is a passion of mine. My love of martial arts began with taekwondo at age 16 and has impacted my entire life.  I naturally gravitate to this style of teaching and enjoy diverse and challenging exercise.   I am a Certified Personal Trainer through the National Strength and Conditioning Association
