I am also a group fitness instructor with certifications from AFAA (Aerobics and Fitness Association of America) and ACE (American Council on Exercise), and I have training in Turbo Kick, Hip Hop Hustle, PiYo, and a few other formats. I teach fitness classes in the Pittsburgh area and landed my dream job as an Area Promotions Director and Presenter for Powder Blue Productions (the producers of Turbo Kick, PiYo, Hustle, and All-Star Presenter Camp). In addition to my career in fitness, I also work as a Graphic Designer. I became a Beachbody Coach because I love fitness and helping others to become healthier while having fun doing it!

I have been involved in fitness since I was very young! Growing up, I loved being active. I danced, cheered, and played a few different sports for fun. I was generally a healthy person, until I hit a bump in the road during my senior year of high school. Stress from school brought on some health issues and a thyroid imbalance that had me feeling pretty sick for about a year. As a result of a combination of health problems, I ended up at least 20 pounds lighter with no energy or strength. I slept A LOT and was no longer my usual happy, active self. Being sick and missing out on the things I looked forward to in my senior year led me into a depression that lasted a while after my health problems were cleared up. Even though I no longer felt sick, I still lacked the energy, motivation, and self-confidence I’d had before.
It was during my freshman year of college, while I was still struggling to get back to my old self, that I saw a Turbo Jam ® infomercial. Thus began my transformation and newfound passion for fitness! I found a lot of different programs at Beachbody that are really great workouts! However, it was Turbo Jam® in particular that captured my interest. Chalene’s positive attitude and energy motivated me to continue pushing play every day. Getting myself moving again made such a difference in my mood! I looked forward to working out to every day, and I noticed a change not only in my outlook on life but in my body and energy level as well. I got back to a healthy weight for me, and I got back my strength plus some! I am stronger now than I have ever been! However, I am still working toward staying committed to a healthy, balanced diet. My family loves to bake, and I have a serious sweet tooth! I want to stick to a diet that will help me to be my healthiest, strongest self.
After getting hooked on Turbo, I found myself venturing out into the Group Fitness arena, which has continued to bring so many positive things into my life. I have truly grown as a person because of it and have met a lot of wonderful people through my fitness endeavors. It is these positive people and experiences that led me to become a Beachbody Coach. I know how many wonderful things have come into my life because of fitness, and this is something I want to share with others! I want to help people become healthier by finding workouts they really love doing and can stick to, as well as a balanced diet that is realistic. With so many food options and contributors to stress, I know it can be hard to stay on the right track. Staying committed to a healthy lifestyle is something that we must work at each day. My goal is to help others reap the benefits of a healthier lifestyle while continuing to adopt healthier habits myself! A strong support system is SO helpful in staying committed to fitness. Let’s work together toward being / staying fit! I’d love to be part of your support system along the way!
