1. How did you first come to join Fit4Mom?

I first heard of FIT4MOM 15 years ago when it was still called Stroller Strides. I would come to visit my sister and niece and we would go to class together. I knew that when I became a mom I needed to find something like that. Then 8 years ago when I had my first baby I found out it was now called FIT4MOM and there was one I could join in my town in VA!

2. How long / what classes do you teach?

I'm certified to teach all the things but I'm not currently on the schedule. I mainly fill in for the Stroller Strides classes when they need someone even though I no longer have a stroller kiddo.

3. What do you love the most about being part of the Fit4Mom Community?

I love the amazing women I've met and the incredible support they provide. I have met some of my very best friends through FIT4MOM and the best part is many of the women I wouldn't typically have met just because we are in different stages of life but I've found those relationships to be invaluable.

4. What would you say to someone who is hesitant to check out our classes?

I remember my first day and I was so incredibly nervous. I do not love trying new things alone and I felt like everyone was watching me try to get my huge stroller out of my car and figure out how to open it and get my baby in. I felt like everyone else knew what they were doing and had it altogether. What I quickly found out is most of the moms felt the exact same way I did, there was absolutely no judgement and the support was incredible. So all I can say is, try it, I honestly don't think you'll regret it!

5. Describe yourself in three words.

Loving, Strong, Passionate
