Why I am here...

I am overwhelmed by the state of obesity and the common lack of physical activity in our children today. I would like to do something about it! Crossfit Kids is my way of sharing my love for fitness with the children in my community and being a part of the change that I want to see in the world!

Working with kids has always been my passion; they bring me joy and inspire me tremendously. I have been a teacher of many different levels, foster parented, been a camp counselor, a nanny, and anything else that I could find that would mean that I got to talk and play with kids.

Crossfit has been, like many other things for me, a continuum of learning. I think that I get a little more driven to be the best, every time that I break a sweat. In the beginning, I began to work out only for me, then I began finding out that I really enjoy sharing it with others. Recently, I got my Level 1 Certification because I am ready to move up to the next level of teaching others my excitement for living the best life. I get so excited that I get teary eyed watching others push their limits and achieve their goals. There is nothing more exciting to me than seeing or hearing of amazing accomplishments that were started by one or two small goals. I hope to help children and their parents experience the feeling of enjoying life in the body that they are in!
