With Healthcare & prescription costs going through the roof, you are your number one defense against disease & unhealthy lifestyles. Something that seems so out of reach is something that you do possess the strength within to fight. You are able to get yourself healthy enough to stop medications for certain medical ailments. You are worth it. Learn, grow, & then inspire someone you love.
I look at it as a blessing that I too was once overweight & unhealthy. As a new wife, mother, & head of a household, I allowed myself to fall last on my list of priorities. After gaining over 80lbs during both pregnancies, I was depressed, unhealthy, unhappy, & was not allowing myself to live life to my full potential. And in turn, I was hurting all those that I put before me. It wasnt' until I realized that I am worth it to carve out an hour a day for myself & that food was not my enemy, it was my savoir (I just had to relearn what my body needed in order to be strong & healthy). All my energy that was lost was soon restored & my life was renewed. I was not just existing, I was living again.
And with that, the most rewarding thing is being a part of awakening that light in others. Showing them their full potential that they didn't think they had within them.
Whether it's weightloss, strengthening, cardio endurance, disease prevention, balance, flexibility, mind/body/spirit connection, or just to achieve a healthy glow, I would be honored to help you with your journey.

How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Growing up on Long Island, NY the last of 8 children, I was outgoing, friendly, high energy child who was always running around doing something. Being raised around horses took up many of my childhood days before & after school & most weekends. My love for animals & people there flourished.
A bit more weight on my small frame was something I was used to. My eating habits were mostly unsupervised; therefore, losts of unhealthy choices were made. It wasn't until going into hgh school when gettin fit was a main goal for me to attain. Not knowing much at all about healthy choices, I reduced my caloric intake to an unhealthy 500-calories per day & included jogging with callisthenic exercises everyday. I always continued my exercise plan regularly; however, it wasnt' until my early 20's that I discovered weight training. Thus, came my first gym membership & lots of reading, self-education, & taking advice from other professionals. With this constanat lifestyle change, I maintained a strong, healthy physique until my 1st pregnancy in my early 30's.
As life has it, being a 1st time Mom included new priorities such as being the perfect mother, wife, caretaker, homemaker, etc. I found myself with lost of extra pounds from my over indulgences, throughout my pregnancies. I was not only over weight, but unhappy, depressed, & found my only way that I knew life to be as a happy, self-confident woman had all but diminished. I no longer knew who I was.
Two children & many years later, I am still rediscovering who I am & what I am capable of doing for myself & moreso others. My years of experience with training & good nutrition have me back on the road of "rediscover"! I have once again found that happiness deep inside of teh shell that had it hidden so well for so long. We tend to lose ourselves along the way sometimes, but as I truly believe, everything happens for a reason.
Currently Certified with ISSA for Personal Training as well as keeping my CPR/FirstAid/AED cert current, I am obtaining my ISSA Fitness Therapy Certification & Nutrition Cert to honor an 'Elite Personal Trainer Certification' with ISSA. Continuing my CEUs, many years of wonderful guidance from professional body builders, gym owners, champion strength competitors, & my own experiences with health & fitness, I look forward to helping with fitness endeavors & helping others 'discover' the strengths they possess! :)
