My love of fitness
started at a young age. I was born in San Francisco, Calif. Feb. 1,
1962. It was my brother Duffs 2nd birthday. We grew up there until I
was eight years old. Then we moved to San Diego.
My first years were spent playing, running, and trying different
sports. I eventually grew to love dance. I danced all the way through
high school. In junior high I also ran track and eventually started
running on my own to find inner peace and have quiet time.
At 17, I worked at a local gym. The aerobic instructor called out one
day and the owner handed me a cassette and said go teach. That was the
beginning of my fitness career. I have been a group fitness instructor
for 31 years and trainer for 25.
I have been blessed to live in 6 countries, many cities and states
including Hawaii. At each destination I have always taught and trained
clients to become their best.
I moved to Florida and opened my own gym in Ormond Beach. I taught
between 10-15 classes weekly in addition to training clients. I also
had the good fortune to get introduced to Herbalife products almost 12
years ago. They have completely changed my life. I struggled with
anorexia in my early 20's and my all time lowest weight was 80lbs. By
adding Herbalife to my life I have put on 40lbs of lean muscle. I also
met Lee Apperson, a Professional Body Builder who has helped me create
my look today. He taught me that food can be ones friend. We have
shared the past 9 years together and I look forward to many more.
After spending so many years indoors teaching and training I was ready
to move it outdoors. In July '07, along with 2 friends, Full Circle
Bootcamp was created. We launched the Daytona Full Circle Bootcamp in
Oct. ' 07 and I have not stopped since. We are stronger and better than
ever. I added a new coach, Shawna Gelow in Dec. '09.
I continue to challenge myself with new fitness goals. Whether it be
competing in Figure shows, racing 5k's or running marathons you will
find me always ready to go !!
My proudest accomplishments are my three children, Dominc 19, Matthew
18 and Vanessa 16. They too have a love of fitness and helping others.
Anything we can accomplish or do together makes me the happiest.
I love what I do. My passion to help others become their very best has
created the lifestyle I always wanted.
Dare to be remarkable, continue to always dream and remember - ALL
THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH FAITH !!
Love,
Jennifer
