About

As a lifelong fitness enthusiast, former teacher and mother of four, becoming a personal trainer was a natural career choice for me. I was certified as a personal trainer by ISSA in 2008, and have trained women of various ages in my home since then. After recently becoming ACE certified as a Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor, I chose to focus on training midlife and older adults. My goal in working with those 5o and older is to provide a safe, individualized, effective fitness program that will enhance the well-being of each individual client, promote longevity, and encourage participation in an active, healthy lifestyle. Each client's fitness plan will include cardiovascular training, strength training and flexibility, as appropriate, and based on his or her specific needs. Safety will be my primary focus, ensured by teaching proper form and technique. Following a logical, systematic progression of strengthening upper body, lower body and core muscles will allow clients to experience many of the health benefits associated with exercise. These include weight control, reduced risk of coronary heart disease and diabetes, decreased incidence of some types of cancer, improved physical function, sleep and energy, and fall prevention. My nurturing, caring, positive manner will help each client meet their individual wellness goals. I am happy to train clients in the privacy of their own homes, and provide the necessary equipment, including tubing, mats, medicine balls, dumbbells, stability balls and more. I offer one-on-one personal training, or small group training sessions. I look forward to teaming up with AARP, to help each client develop and meet his or her individual wellness goals. I view every day as a brand new opportunity to improve upon the person I was yesterday. I hope you will join me in this philosophy to improve your self. Please contact me for a complimentary initial consultation.
