How has SPENGA impacted your life? Spenga has impacted my life in a BIG way as it has been part of my life for 3 years now. Also my body has gone through some changes now that I am in my 40's. The combination of cardio, strength and yoga is PERFECT for my current stage on my fitness journey.

What's your favorite thing(s) to do, when you aren't WERKing out at SPENGA? I love to Paddleboard, go to the beach and pet all the animals in sight!

What's the best piece of advice that you can give to someone just starting out on their fitness journey? Have patience, trust the process, fall in love with the journey and your unique body. Fitness is not a temporary fix, you have to make it a lifestyle.
