I love being a Group Fitness instructor because it is a means to give back and more importantly learn. Helping others meet and achieve even the simplest fitness goal is very rewarding. My Group Fitness instructor journey started simply as a means to get in saddle time and build endurance so I could get out on the road with my co-workers who were long time road riders. A year into cycling classes I had an unfortunate accident in class that sparked my interest in learning how to ride and train indoors. More importantly it was a person journey to get out of my only way and do something I would eventually realized I loved. You see, I use to fear speaking in public less alone instructing others on a mic. The desire to grow is a personal goal so I accepted the challenge to see where being an instructor would take me and what type of instructor I might be capable of. So 18 years later why am I still doing this? Learning how to instruct, motivate, and challenge not only myself but also people on their own fitness journey to hopefully become better and efficient athletes is both fulfilling and as allows me to grow as a person. Two interesting facts about me ... I am an avid photographer and a French Horn player.
