HIP Fitness

A LITTLE ABOUT ME... I STARTED MY FITNESS JOURNEY IN MY 30's. AFTER MY FIRST SON WAS BORN I KNEW I HAD TO DO SOMETHING. I FOUND A PLACE WHERE I FELT WELCOME AND COMFORTABLE (EVEN AT 60+ POUNDS OVERWEIGHT). THE OWNER AND INSTRUCTORS WERE MOTIVATING AND WITH REGULAR EXERCISE, STRENGTH TRAINING AND HEALTHY EATING I DID IT.. I LOST 60 POUNDS!!  WOW, I REACHED MY GOAL.. SO NOW IT WAS MY TURN TO RETURN THE FAVOR. I WAS SOON CERTIFIED THROUGH AFAA AS A PERSONAL TRAINER IN 2001.  I TAUGHT STEP CLASSES BUT MOSTLY STUCK IN THE WEIGHT ROOM.  AFTER MEETING MY HUSBAND AND MOVING TO SALEM, I SOON LEARNED OF THE NEW CRAZE, ZUMBA! IN 2007 I WAS LICENSED AS A ZUMBA INSTRUCTOR.  FIRST IN THE AREA, CLASSES WERE GROWING, BOOTYS WERE SHAKING AND PEOPLE WERE SHRINKING.  HIP FITNESS WAS BORN AND LIVED IN CAMBRIDGE.  THREE BABIES AND A BIG PURCHASE LATER, WE HAPPILY HAVE SETTLED IN SALEM WHERE NO ONE CAN TELL US WE ARE 'TOO LOUD' (CUZ WE LIKE IT THAT WAY).  I'M CERTIFIED TO TEACH MANY FORMATS (TURBO,PIYO,STRIDE,BOKWA,ZUMBA KIDS,ZUMBA TONING, ZUMBA STEP, ZUMBINI), BUT MY ONE TRUE LOVE IS DANCING AND SWEATING, IT BARELY FEELS LIKE EXERCISE.  MY GOAL WAS TO CREATE A PLACE WHERE EVERYONE WAS COMFORTABLE AND MOTIVATED.. SUCCESS!!  I HOPE YOU'LL JOIN US. OUR JOURNEYS TO FIT ARE ALL PERSONAL. SOME ARE THERE, SOME ARE ON THEIR WAY, WHILE SOME ARE STILL LOOKING AT THE MAP.. WHEREVER YOU ARE, LET US BE PART OF YOUR JOURNEY 

 

SEE YOU SOON !
