Qualified To Teach

I was born and raised in Colorado and moved to Arizona a couple years ago for graduate school. While in Arizona, I completed my Masters, became certified in Body Pump and RPM, ran my first 1/2 marathon, and managed to stay tan all year long! While I had a good time in the desert, I recently returned home to Denver. I mised my family, the seasons, and the Rocky Mountains too much! I love teaching, but am also interested in pursuing a career in a health and wellness field. I am going back to school for nutrition this spring!

I have always been active. I played soccer as a kid, have skied and snowboarded my whole life, and always enjoyed hiking and running. However, I was never one to "work-out" at the gym. When I was in college I was introduced to Les Mills and quickly fell in love with Body Pump, Body Combat, and RPM. I planned my schedule around the gym's group fitness schedule and anticipated the next launch! There were some amazing instructors at the Pulse Fort Collins that inspired me and motivated me in every class.

When I moved to Arizona, I was fortunate to find ChamBo Wellness Center which not only had the Les Mills programs, but also amazing instructors. Little did I know that they would become my mentors and incentive to become an instructor myself! For many years I have loved taking the Les Mills classes, but now I am absolutely loving being an instructor! Even though I am a total gym junkie, I still enjoy outdoor activities and recently began competing in triathlons. My hope as a Les Mills coach is to motivate others, help them to achieve their results, and to continue to spread the good word about this fantastic, world-class, group fitness program. I also hope to continue to challenge myself by improving my own fitness level and goals! Life is good!

Availability

I am moving back home to Denver, CO Feb 1st, 2008 and am interested in teaching. I am currently available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. As I find employment, I will update. I love LES MILLS and hope to continue teaching RPM and BodyPump! I am leaving an awesome team of instructors ... :(

Tina	How are you? Hatin the diet but only a little longer. Not sure if I'm doing the competition I'm not where I need to be. I can't seem to loose weight but have lost inches. If I don't make it it's okay just trying to get to my goal weight and get in the best shape for me.
