Pilates for the Newbie

Thank You: Open House Success!

Thank you for making our 2011 Open House such a success!  We had a wonderful time mixing and mingling over beautiful Lululemon clothing, sampling Lunches by Lisa, trying on Stella & Dot jewelry,  learning about TraEva towels for fitness, and helping support the Haiti Orphan Rescue Program.  So far we have raised about $2,500!

Not able to attend?  There is still time to make a donation to this wonderful cause.

Don't forget about our final Pilates for a Purpose donation Mat class taught by Core Sport Owner Jamie White.  100% of funds raised will support the Haiti Orphan Rescue Program on Saturday, July 16th 2011 @3pm in the Kellogg Park of downtown Plymouth.  Register now and bring along your friends and family for a workout to support this great cause (all donations are tax deductible)!

Q: Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Michigan.  I've lived in Canton my entire life and am an alumni of Plymouth Salem High School.


Q:What inspired you to become an instructor?
I've enjoyed playing sports and training my entire life.  I've always wanted to share that passion and knowledge with others. My focus is on informing my clients of the facts and best practices, which will not only get them to the level of fitness they seek, but also provide them the tools to maintain that level of fitness for the rest of their lives.


Certifications:

• National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) Personal Trainer Certification
• Associates Degree in Small Business Management 

Q: How long have you been instructing?
I've been training as my professional occupation for nearly a year and a half, but I've been training on a part-time basis for about 5 years.

Q: What types of classes do you teach at Core Sport?

I teach Boot Camp, Full-Body Bands, Butt and Core, Bosu and TRX.

My favorite class to teach is Boot Camp.  Its intense nature, provides each participant with the opportunity to push themselves physically (anaerobically and aerobically) and mentally during each session. This class pushes and challenges your will and athletic prowess!

Previous place of employment:

• Life Time Fitness in Novi, Michigan

Hobbies/Interests:

I love training and playing nearly all sports.  My favorites are tennis, softball, volleyball and basketball. I also love spending time with my fiance and family.

Favorite Quote:
