Seeing Others Enjoy Fitness

"I move to help keep my mental health in balance. In dealing with depression it is easy to get sucked into the darkness. Making a commitment to fitness, along with leading others in fitness classes has helped me in all aspects of life. My inspiration is in seeing others enjoy fitness and my goal is to inspire even one person to take steps in their fitness regime."

Empowerment

11/25/2013

0 Comments

 
"I move because it makes me feel better - about myself, my body, my health, my energy! I like that at 35 years of age I can still play soccer and compete with women 10-15 years younger than me. I like that I can still fit the same jeans that I wore in high school. I like that I can be an example for the people around me. Most of all, I like that feeling of empowerment that comes after exercise!"

Because Exercise is as Normal as Brushing Your Teeth :)

11/7/2013

0 Comments

 
"Because of my Dad who instilled a love of exercise simply by setting an example. He made it seem like going for a run was as normal as brushing your teeth. I want to set the same example for my own kids."

Role Model Mother

"I move in order to continue to feel good on a day to day basis and to improve my life span. I also thInk it motivates me to do my best in other areas of my life. Finally, I think it makes me a good role mother to my 2 year old daughter as I notice she tries to copy me when she sees me doing exercises at home!"
