Profile

Love this, from "Fighting Globesity":

"When you're working out with people, sharing powerful physical experiences and endorphin highs, you tend to open up, to be a lot more authentic with each other. There are no politics and few hierarchies, and bonds tend to form more quickly than they do at work. Bonds formed with team mates are lasting and powerful, not unlike those formed between squad members who fight alongside each other in battle."

----------------------------------------

I, Melissa Merlino, am here for the people in my classes, and not vice-versa. I keep myself in peak physical condition. My Body is my Temple. I graciously accept constructive criticism and peer review. I am LOYAL to my program, my fellow instructors and my club. I am a Warrior in the battle against sedentary lifestyle. I will make a Positive Contribution to the life of EVERY individual in my class. I will champion perfect exercise technique. I live for Les Mills music and choreography. While I strive to be a STAR performer, I remain a team player. I believe kicking butt is an essential part of any workout scheme.
By creating change in my own backyard, I can change the World!

----------------------------------------

I've been a Body Pump instructor since BP 28 (1999) and Body Attack instructor since BA 51 (2006). I'm also certified in Body Step but gave it up for BA. I teach with the finest group of instructors in the world in at the BodyPlex in Cumming, GA.

I've been married for 13 years to a wonderful man and have two beautiful children a 8 year old boy and a 5 year old girl.

    Thanks for the update! Yes, I'm always in town. Maybe every couple of weeks or so. I'm looking forward to seeing your new gym! Let's make sure and teach together when you get up and running there. Family is good. We're heading to Disney on Sunday for about 5 days. Never been. Our kids are so excited! Merry Christmas!

    Melissa, Thanks so much for allowing me to join you and Alyx. I had so much fun, and can't remember that last time that I was treated so special at a gym! I think the three of us had some "fitness magic" together, huh? I hope the participants had at least half the fun that I did. Let's plan to do it again in the future. Keep me updated on the new place. See you soon!
