I am Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA) Primary Group Exercise Certified and I hold Personal Trainer, Senior Fitness, and Fitness Nutrition Certifications from American Council on Exercise (ACE), as well as Barre Above™ and Tabata Bootcamp™ Certifications. I attend the IDEA World Fitness Convention – the biggest in the world – every year. I’m incredibly honored to be a member of both the Tabata Bootcamp™ and Barre Above™ Master Trainer teams. I am also Red Cross certified.
My small-group training studio is located at 160 N. Fairview Ave in Goleta, CA.
