About Kristy

Here’s a Little About me

From a young age I was very active from basketball to volleyball to dance... It's how I stayed in shape. After my freshman year in high school I quit basketball and with dance being seasonal I needed something extra. That's when I joined my first gym. I was trained by the owner Kim King a heavy weight body builder. (Now a strength coach at the University of Pittsburgh) After my first year there Kim asked if I would aid in training new clients. I happily accepted and that was the beginning of my exercise teaching.

Fast forward to my wedding in October 2011; I had really put some time in to my fitness and diet. I felt confident and healthy. Then, a few months after being married I became pregnant and that all went out the window.  After gaining 70lbs in my pregnancy; I had never felt so bad and completely out of shape. 7 weeks after my son was born I found myself in my first Pilates class.

Thereafter,  as a stay at home mom I found myself struggling to maintain my motivation. Allison suggested that I get certified and start teaching. I then got certified to teach Insanity and PiYo. It was just what I needed! Teaching keeps my head in the game! Exercise is the key ingredient to keep me mentally and physically healthy.
