I’m a blessed and busy mom of two boys ages 3 & 6, with my husband Mike of ten years.  I first joined FIMB as a student in January of 2007.  I fell in love with Carla’s fitness and life philosophy for women.   FIMB has definitely helped me find the confident and sassy woman inside!  My favorite part is the MANY friendships I’ve gained at the studio!!

I currently instruct Salsa, Salsa Pole, Cardio Groove and Intro to Pole classes.  I’ve been trained as a Ballroom, Latin and Swing Dance Instructor, as well as prior Zumba® certification. 

I plan to continue living an active and healthy lifestyle predominantly through dancing, which is my first passion in life.  I also hope to study and bring the art of Burlesque dancing into the KC club scene.

Stay fit and fabulous ladies!

I first joined FIMB as a student in June of 2010 searching for a workout that I would enjoy enough to want to stick with, while still getting the benefit of a full-body and cardio workout, but never guessed that I would soon be instructing them!  I love how the classes at FIMB encourage women to feel strong, instill a confidence in them to feel sexy, and melt away the stress in your life during the time you spend at the studio.  No matter your ability, you will always be challenged to be your best and improve from week to week in a safe environment.  

In my time away from the studio I love reading, digital scrap booking, going to country music concerts, and creating new routines for class. In addition to FIMB, I work at an area hospital in environmental and occupational health and safety as well as perform environmental health and safety consulting services in the area of food manufacturing.  I am also in school working on my masters degree in occupational safety.
 
I am currently instructing pole and chair classes and parties.

I joined FIMB in August of 2009. I immediately fell in love with the Pole Fitness, Polga and Chair Moves classes. Not only was I working my body, but I was having a great time doing so…I never would have thought in a million years I’d be working out in stilettos! I began toning up, working my core, and building upper body strength. It didn’t take long for me to become inspired to instruct these unique classes.

I enjoy instructing Pole Fitness classes and Pole Moves parties. I love to see women stepping out of their comfort zone and trying something new and exciting and these classes & parties definitely are!

I lead an active life with my husband Troy and our two sons. We enjoy family time at our lake house, dirt track racing (our youngest races a Jr. Sprint), and movie nights.                         

Outside of FIMB I run an indoor go kart facility which keeps me very busy.                    

In my spare time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, dancing, going to concerts, shopping, and of course, learning new pole tricks!

See you in class Ladies!
