My day job is teaching English and Performing Arts at
Susquehanna Township High School out in Harrisburg. But here is a
little secret….I may like teaching group fitness better! When I was
a teenager, I became addicted to step aerobics. Since I was at the
gym all the time anyway, I decided to get my group fitness
certification in 2008. At about that time I started taking Les
Mills Body Pump. I was, like most women, fearful that I would
develop bulky muscles from lifting weights. But all of the evidence
points to the fact that women, especially aging women, need to lift
weights to maintain strong bones and avoid osteoporosis. Besides,
sculpted muscles are beautiful! I decided to get the Body Pump
certification and joined to LJ’s family in 2011. I live in
Robesonia with my husband, two kids, and three dogs. I am inspired
by the people who come to the classes and love to motivate and push
them as they do for me!
