Exercise changed my life. As an overweight adolescent I had zero self-esteem. Fitness allowed me to go beyond even my wildest dreams imagined. I believe in what I do and my passion echoes throughout the club. I am a competitor and have several state and regional titles in bodybuilding and powerlifting. Best of all, I might be old enough to be your mother, but I'm strong enough to be your father!!!

I was born in New Jersey, but raised right here in Maine. I got into fitness after my first son was born 8 years ago and I've never looked back. It started as a way to get back in shape and then became my lifestyle! I'll never forget the first step class I ever taught... talk about nerves. My husband and I just welcomed our second son this past year and we feel truly blessed to have two beautiful, healthy boys! Between my "guys" and my fitness career...

I have always wanted my job to be something where I was active or helping people. So, when in High School I signed up for the military. I went on to pass all tests physically and mentally and was given the choice of any job at all. I chose to go into Special Ops and passed the physical for that as well. But about two months before graduation I got a letter saying I was disqualified from the military for the asthma I had as a kid, but had no signs...

My path into the world of health and fitness was laid by my father. I was very athletic as a child, but extremely skinny. My father thought it would be a good idea to begin weight training to increase my size and my strength when I was about 14. Well, I hated it! We would go into his cellar and he would PUSH me, but all I wanted to do was be outside playing ball. Needless to say, by the time I was about 16 my body had started making noticeable...

I started teaching dance at the ripe old age of 19. I even taught "aerobics" classes, think Jane Fonda style, shiny tights and leg warmers- it was a long time ago :). I owned and operated two dance studios until my thirst to performing got the better of me. I danced professionally for 6 years, including multiple contracts at the Lido de Paris, as well as touring throughout Europe, Japan, and South America. I continued until my body was thoroughly...
