This group came ready to THRIVE.
Each one of these incredible instructors showed up with courage, curiosity, and commitment — and now they’re headed into the next phase, ready to film and bring Les Mills Thrive to life in their communities.
Thrive is more than a workout. It’s a mindset.
It’s about moving with intention, listening to your body, and creating space for strength, mobility, and energy in every season of life.
This team leaned all the way in — and I couldn’t be prouder.
Your communities are lucky to have you.
Let’s go Thrive. The world needs what you’ve got.

This amazing crew just completed their Initial Training in BODYPUMP and BODYBALANCE, and I couldn’t be more proud! Every single one of them is new to teaching Les Mills, but they brought decades of freestyle experience, passion, and professionalism to the floor—with over 100 combined years in the fitness industry.
They showed up intelligent, brave, humble, and hungry to learn, and they walked away as changemakers. The way they supported each other, embraced feedback, and leaned into discomfort with courage was nothing short of inspiring.
These instructors embody the Les Mills values:
– They lifted each other all weekend.
– They stepped boldly into something new.
– And they will—one class at a time.
The Les Mills community is so lucky to welcome these powerful new voices. Get ready, world—your next favorite instructor might just be in this photo.

They Did It!
This incredible team just completed their BODYPUMP and LES MILLS TONE Dual Initial Training, and I couldn’t be more proud!
From the first rep to the last beat, they showed up with strength, heart, and commitment—not just learning the Choreography, but to stepping into the role of a leader in their community.
At the end of the weekend, they gave me flowers and a thank-you card, but the truth is, they filled my cup just as much as I poured into them. Their energy, their support for each other, and their drive to grow as instructors is what makes this experience so special.
To each of you: You are ready. You are capable. And you have the power to change lives. Your communities are so blessed to have not just incredible instructors, but kind, strong, and happy humans like you.
Now go out there, teach from your strengths, and make an impact!

✨ Ready to ditch the comparison trap and own your journey? ✨
Comment FOCUS if you’re choosing progress over comparison!
Here’s the truth—when you stop measuring yourself against someone else’s highlight reel and start focusing on your path, everything shifts. You begin to celebrate your wins, no matter how small. You stop second-guessing and start trusting that your timeline is exactly where you need to be.
Instead of letting comparison steal your joy, let the success of others inspire you to level up—without questioning your own worth. Your journey is yours alone, and every step forward counts.

Some people leave an impact that lasts a lifetime, and Ingrid is one of those people.
When I moved to California, newly divorced and hurting, Ingrid was one of the first Les Mills trainers I connected with. Over the years, we’ve lived parallel lives in many ways—leading, coaching, and inspiring through movement. We’ve team-taught, presented BODYCOMBAT together, and shared unforgettable moments in this industry.
This past weekend, I had the honor of shadowing her Sunday morning BODYCOMBAT class at ClubSport San Ramon—her first class back after her second hip replacement.
Let that sink in… second hip replacement.
And she came back like the legend she is.
I asked my BODYPUMP trainees to take her class to witness firsthand what passion, resilience, and leadership look like. And Ingrid? She delivered—bringing fire, encouragement, and that undeniable presence that makes her such an icon in the Les Mills community.
She didn’t stop at teaching—she poured into my trainees, lifting them up, inspiring them, and setting the bar high. That’s who she is. A mentor. A leader. A warrior. A woman of faith who lives her life boldly and unapologetically.
Ingrid, you are a force. You embody everything Les Mills stands for—strength, resilience, and the power of connection. What an honor to stand shoulder to shoulder with you once again. Thank you for being you.
🔥💪 Drop a ❤️ in the comments if you’ve ever been inspired by an instructor who lives and breathes their passion!

This weekend wasn’t just about learning to teach BODYPUMP—it was about stepping into leadership, pushing past limits, and lifting each other up (literally).
These incredible individuals have officially passed Initial Training and now begin their journey toward certification! They showed up with commitment, heart, and an unstoppable spirit, supporting one another every step of the way.
Now, the real adventure begins—fine-tuning their skills, embracing the challenge, and stepping into their power as instructors. BODYPUMP isn’t just a workout; it’s a life-changing experience—and this team is ready to bring that energy to every class they teach.
Congratulations, new instructors! Time to keep growing, refining, and inspiring. You’ve got this!

Productivity isn’t about pushing harder—it’s about working smarter by aligning your tasks with your energy.

✨ Prioritize high-energy tasks during your peak hours.
✨ Save routine or lower-energy work for when your energy naturally dips.
✨ Listen to your body—when you fuel and move well, you perform well.

What a fantastic day hanging out with this awesome crew of instructors at yesterday’s instructor feedback workshop at the Presidio YMCA! These folks really showed what the Les Mills values are all about— , , and .
They came ready to soak up knowledge, develop their skills, and focus on progress instead of perfection. Everyone walked away with a solid grasp of their strengths and a clear next step in their teaching journey.

Welcome!
A SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE FOR BUSY WOMEN WHO WANT TO SAVE TIME AND START SEEING RESULTS
Online programs that use cutting-edge strategies to burn fat, lose weight and see real results that last!
Hey y’all! I’m a NorCal livin’, Tennessee raised gal who is crazy about my hubby, Dave, my fur babes, Memphis barbecue, and helping women feel good in their own skin! I come from an extensive background of fitness, nursing, life coaching, yoga instructing, and am a FASTer Way to Fat Loss VIP specialist. Basically...I do it all 😂
Here’s a little more of a professional “bio” on me if you’re looking for my experience and expertise:
I am a registered nurse of 30 years and holistic wellness coach of 25 years. Married to my high school sweetheart and have four amazing, grown kids: two “His” and two “Hers.” I bring a rich background in somatic practices, meditation, and therapeutic touch from my nursing practice combined with an understanding of human movement as a NASM certified personal trainer and certified Somatic Coach through the Strozzi Institute.
My graduate work earned me a Masters in Human Services Counseling: Life Coaching focused on a neuroscientific approach to a sharper mind and a healthier life. I’m extremely passionate about coaching women to be their “best self” so they can lead a joy-filled life. I approach my practice and clients through the eyes of a learner which allows me to be sensitive and open to client communication and need. Most of my coaching involves helping women to discover and clarify what they want to achieve to be well through a mind/body approach.
I believe my work is missional and my faith compels me to serve women the only way I know how; to see their own beauty and let it shine!
Thanks for stopping by my little Facebook corner of the world. I hope you find some humor here, some education, and you feel loved because you are!
