Profile

I have been teaching BodyPump since 1999 and a participant since 1997. Yes folks, that’s right, it was back in the days with VHS and cassette tapes, and YES, I still break them out once in a while! SIGH. I owe so much to the BodyPump program, because within a year of being certified, the thing that I LOVED THE MOST was pretty much taken away from me. If it were not for this program saving me mentally and emotionally, I don't know what I would have done, and I have no idea where I would have ended up.

BodyPump continues to be my favorite program to teach. And as the new releases are brought forth, I become more and more attached. The challenges and the evolution of the program have been amazing! (Although this still remains a toss-up between BC AND BP)

I completed my RPM training in May 2008 (PASSED).

I also completed BodyCombat training in November 2008 (PASSED).

I am currently working as an Occupational Therapist at a rehabilitation hospital, where I primarily work with people, who have had strokes. In my other hours, I teach other aerobics classes (cycling, aqua, and CORE) and try to attend as many educational classes/workshops that I can (Quarterlies, Myofascial Release techniques, etc.). I have the privilege to teach a BodyPump class 1x/wk with my mom (not many can say that!).

I am currently teaching Bodypump (Sunday AM, Wednesday PM) and BodyCombat (Wednesday PM)

sounds a bit like me. i only teach once a week, but im able to team teach during some of the other classes so i get plenty of practice that way. its good. i too am also a perfactionist. i would love to be a master trainer, so ive been training non-stop trying to increase my intesity and master the choreography. i think after my one year i will start training for that to submit another video. hope your holiday was nice and have a great christmas, thanks again for all the help. :)

Terra	Lynn- Congrats on your PASS. 7 weeks wait?? That is horrible!! Still haven't received my final grade. I like release 39. It is too bad you can't teach regularly, you have great passion for Combat. I will see you soon. Can't wait!! Terra
