Qualified To Teach

BODYCOMBAT™

UPDATE! I'm teaching again!
Back from a 5th metatarsal break on Wednesday. The foot feels good but still no lunges on the leg or side lateral movements, but its getting there! Very happy to be back with my class and excited to launch Wednesday Oct 15th at Midtown DC!

Also hope to see many of you at the Q Nov. 22. Just got my ticket!

KIA! My first Combat Class I'll never forget, it was Launch in Rosslyn in 2004, new city for me, new gym, and new class. I've been Cardio Kickboxing ever since 2001 and decided to get my AFAA cert on a whim/personal goal in Feb 2005 after moving to VA from Maine. I LOVED combat though so much that I was very anxious to get certified next in that. I went to training in July of 2005 in Tysons with my VA girls and started teaching my own class in 2006. Initially began teaching combat at various time slots in Annandale, Rosslyn, and Baileys Crossroads, and now have been teaching Body Combat at Golds Midtown DC (Wednesday 6:30pm) since Spring of 2007. I love to teach and love learning each day new things from my students.

I also teach/sub CardioKickboxing and abs/glutes classes at Georgetown University and hold current CPR/AED Certs. I've got a background in Biology, Economics and Philosophy, and gave up my day job in 2007 to go back to being a full time student studying to get my masters in Health Policy at Georgetown University. Other hobbies include lifting (and going to Pump classes), running, biking, wine tasting, cooking, and traveling. I'm always anxious to sub for my friends and Combat is my format of choice. Subs at other Northern VA and DC Corporate Gyms.

Bill	Howdy Christina :-) I see you've picked up a Saturday class at CH. Do you start this Saturday? Overall BC 38 looks good. Track 5 seems a little boring, but 4,6, and 7 look quite challenging. I'm really looking forward to BC 39 though as the theme is supposed to be cage fighting! Bill

Wendy	Hi Christina, At this point I'm waiting to hear about my job situation. I may be out here full time by then, but I'm not sure. I'll keep you posted. I'd be happy to sub for you January 14th if I'm around. Wendy

Wendy	Hi Christina, glad to hear you're back to teaching! I'm back in DC for work for probably a month and planning on being at the launch on the 15th. See you then! Wendy

Bill	Howdy neighbor! :-) How did your return to teaching BodyCombat go last night? How did it feel to start back again? See you for launch(es). Bill

Bill	Good to hear your almost back in action. Hopefully your conditioning will return quickly as well. I plan to attend the October 15 launch so I'll see you then if not before. See ya Bill

Bill	I interpret your profile to say you're back to BC in October. When do you expect to be back? Any chance you'll learn 37 in time for launches? Hopefully you're staying sane while recovering. Bill

Jennifer	No, thank YOU. What a great class. I just love the music from this release and you ladies rocked the house! Fantasic launch. I'm so lucky to have such a dedicated team. Now if only I could snap my fingers and have our wireless mics installed! Stay tuned...
