What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

Throughout my journey as a young adult, I faced challenges with weight management. Now, as a mother of three boys, I focused on maintaining my health during pregnancy. The secret lies in staying active, eating in moderation, and prioritizing wellness. I often remind others that exercise is a powerful tool for stress relief, when feeling down, a dumbbell can work wonders. At 66, I may not feel my age, but I understand how our bodies evolved overtime. I remind everyone to be their best at any age

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

I absolutely love teaching my Spin, weight and Zumba classes! For the past 18 years, I've also participated in a dance show . I instruct nine different classes, including various dance styles. When I go on vacation, hiking is a must for me. I make it a point to strength train at the gym three to four times a week to keep my muscles strong.

What would you do with $20,000?

If I were to win $20,000, I would definitely set aside some for myself. I'd love to plan an incredible backpacking trip through Italy with my partner, exploring city after city. I'd also treat my exercise students and grandkids and save for another dream of mine. Above all, I would be thrilled to grace, the cover of a Fitness magazine! I will keep Fitness going at any Age... Its a Lifestyle❤️
