Emilia
Resourceful teacher with broad age range experience.

I then went to YMCA university and got my BA degree in Leisure management, where I had pedagogy, psychology, and recreation among other courses. These three proved instrumental in advancing my teaching s... Read more

Fitness and health are important but often over looked pieces of our daily lives. Lets face it, when it comes to fitness we often use the phrase "I'll start tomorrow" as a way to procrastinate, due to the challenge of getting started. As a fitness professional I have learned that there are three main things the general public needs assistance with when starting a fitness journey. Knowledge, accountability, and motivation seem to hold most people back from ever accomplishing their fitness goal... Read more
