In other news: TEAM PINK will reconvene this October to walk the 3 day 60 mile walk for breast cancer research in the Washington, DC metro area (October 3-5.) We've done it 3x already - in DC, San Diego and Tampa, now we're back on our home turf. I'm walking for my mother who is a 2x 16 year survivor! If you're in the area please consider walking with us or coming out to cheer us on. If you can't be there in person, please consider making a donation on my webpage:
http://08.the3day.org/site/TRC/Walk/WashingtonDCEvent?pg=peditor&fr_id=1192&px=1151441
All the proceeds go towards finding a cure
Until there's a cure, I will walk (and maybe even punch and kick and lunge and superman and jump knee a little)

I've been teaching group fitness since I finished grad school in 1992 (don't do the math, it's been a while). AFAA certified in group fitness and PT since 1992. Taught hi/lo, freestyle step, kickboxing, weight training and core training. I was a freestyle devotee for years and years, until Les Mills came along and changed my life. I teach BODY PUMP, BODY COMBAT, BODY STEP and BODY ATTACK.
Current teaching schedule:
Mon morning BP
Mon evening BA, BC
Tues evening 20/20/20 (BS/BA/BC), BC
Wed evening BP, BS
Thurs evening Abs, BC
Fri morning BP
Every other Sat morning BP, BS
Sun morning BA
When I'm not at the gym, by day I'm a forensic scientist (yes like on CSI - only not quite as glamorous) and attorney. I travel around the country to train cops, attorneys, judges, scientists, sexual assault nurse examiners and physicians about how to identify, collect and preserve evidence. (Or as Andrea calls my day job - talking about spit and sperm). Check out my consulting firm at www.scilawforensics.com
I travel a lot for my 'day job' and I'm always looking to meet and play with fellow LM addicts around the country (and maybe eventually around the world). If you're ever in the DC area, look me up and come play. In the meantime, if I'm near you, you'll probably hear from me.
Where am I?
July 15-18 Yuma, AZ, testifying in a post-conviction hearing on DNA issues for a death penalty defendant.
July 20-27 New Orleans, LA attending and speaking at an international forensic science conference and attending a board meeting for a Commission on forensic science education accreditation. Hoping to join the crew at Franco's and a few other clubs for some LM
Aug 1-6 St Petersburg, FL running a meeting on DNA for defense attorneys and hopefully getting to launch BC 36 w/Erin and Janine!!!
