TERRI WALSH created the groundbreaking Active Resistance Training® Method as the essential foundation of a fitness lifestyle. The concept of ‘fitness as practice’ is entirely non-impact next level evolution of group exercise strength training, barre, mat pilates, and yoga. A.R.T. uses two signature foam yoga blocks to create loaded and unloaded 3-dimensional asymmetric movement patterns while maintaining the calorie-torching non-destructive intensity called ‘active resistance’.It’s this kind of vision and creative process that’s hallmarked a unique fitness career. Terri’s career started and thrived in the immensely competitive environment of New York City, working with various prestigious health clubs, including the Vertical Club and Molly Fox Studios. She was consequently appointed by Crunch Fitness as its very first-ever Creative Director of Programming, formulating programs and supervising the group fitness instructors in 5 locations. Eventually, she moved away from major health clubs and opened her own studio in order to provide clients with more hands-on and focused attention while setting the developmental groundwork for the ART Method as it exists today. With three decades of professional experience, Terri has been featured in national fashion and fitness magazines and has appeared on numerous television shows. Key to Terri’s philosophy is the intrinsic role of fitness in enhancing all aspects of life – which was also the central theme of her bestselling book “Diva: The Fitness System to Unleash Your Female Power” from the Berkley Publishing Group in 1997.Terri is licensing the ART Method to facilities worldwide. You can find the ART Method at many locations of Crunch, Equinox, and the YMCA in the USA. In 2019 Active Resistance Training Instructor Training was also made available online for the individual as well as small groups of instructors.
