Hope O.

I've been active in sports all my life and found a love for fitness since a very young age. I excelled mostly in track, ballet, volleyball, cheerleading when I was young. As I go older, I started Yoga and Taekwondo, kickboxing, and weight training. I got a diploma in Fitness and Nutrition in 1999. I began teaching and training in the martial arts and expanded to instructing classes and Instructors Water Kickboxing. After moving to Florida, I began getting certified in Yoga, Pilates, Stability Ball, Personal Training, TRX, and Boot Camp. Decades of Instructional classes later, extensive experience in the fitness field has been a lifestyle, helping others to reach fitness goals while meeting them right where they are in their journey. My style is to develop a fitness relationship with clients that healthy for their body and mind. Starting at a slow and easy pace then gaining momentum to reach optimal results. Tracking progress and celebrating the small gains brings success to the client for perseverance. "You can do it!" is a favorite quote of mine to keep the motivation level up when "Quitting isn't an option!" My teaching style is mostly go at your own pace, but push yourself just a little bit beyond the comfort level. Progression into more challenging routings and stretches increases the body's limits toward overall better health for a more productive and functional lifestyle.
