The one thing I missed the most about working in a club-environment was physically seeing the impact I, and my team, was making on a daily basis. There is something very special about really becoming a part of the club and member community. I was eager to pursue this position and am thrilled to be returning to the club and operations side of the industry, working with the team at Midtown Athletic Clubs.

There is something very special about really becoming a part of the club and member community. I was eager to pursue this position and am thrilled to be returning to the club and operations side of the industry, working with the team at Midtown Athletic Clubs. As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, my role as Program Manager is to oversee fitness programming and all aspects of the fitness experience within the club. With the shift in each of our clubs and spaces toward the studio model, and the increased emphasis throughout the industry on brands offering more curated, boutique-like experiences, my goal is to serve as a fitness ambassador within the club to help Midtown grow and remain an industry leader in its program offerings.

It's difficult to explain the impact you've made in a role when the role is actually what impacted you. This is the role that changed my life and my career path! I was recruited by one of my own instructors to be trained in the programs I enjoyed as a participant. Through the rigorous training and assessment process for my first program, BODYCOMBAT, I fell in love with Les Mills programming. After achieving certification in my first format, I went on to certify in BODYPUMP, BODYCOMBAT, CXWORX… Show more It's difficult to explain the impact you've made in a role when the role is actually what impacted you. This is the role that changed my life and my career path! I was recruited by one of my own instructors to be trained in the programs I enjoyed as a participant. Through the rigorous training and assessment process for my first program, BODYCOMBAT, I fell in love with Les Mills programming. After achieving certification in my first format, I went on to certify in BODYPUMP, BODYCOMBAT, CXWORX, BODYFLOW, The TRIP, and BORN TO MOVE (Les Mills' programming for children). Making the transition from participant to instructor was truly eye-opening and inspired me to continue my instructor education. Beyond advancing my own skills in coaching, technique, and the science of the programming, the opportunity to change someone's day, routine, lifestyle, or life is what continually motivates me to teach. I strive to give members the tools and education they need to feel successful in their workouts and keep them coming back for more. If I can empower one person to feel inspired by their own strength or power...job done! I have taught group fitness classes for 24 Hour Fitness, the YMCA, Wellbridge (Colorado Athletic Clubs), Bladium, East Bank Club, Chicago Athletic Clubs, and Les Mills Clubs in New Zealand. Show less
