teresa Sorensen

Expertise: R.I.P.P.E.D, Group Fitness, Dance      

 

Teresa's passion for fitness evolved out of her involvement in dance as a young girl. She began her career in Group exercise in 2004 as a step instructor after the birth of her second child, to help improve her own level of wellness and to have more energy to keep up with the demands of being a mom. During her 7 years as a certified fitness instructor, Teresa has taught a spectrum of classes from indoor cycling, strength and interval training to a variety of dance-based formats including hip-hop and Zumba. Locally, Teresa's involvement in health and fitness has earned her some features in the news, including The Central Valley Today Show, Great Day with Kopi, and the Visalia Times Delta. Recently, Teresa was also chosen as a fit model for In Shape City Health Clubs. The two things Teresa loves most about group exercise are the camaraderie people develop when they workout together and it's ability to reduce stress.  When Teresa isn't teaching classes at the gym, you will find her working part-time as a pharmaceutical rep and enjoying time with her husband and three kids.

A lifelong competitive swimmer and lifeguard, Erin grew up with a passion for fitness and developed a work ethic that earned her a place on the U.S. World Lifesaving Competition Team, where she traveled to Europe to compete against the most elite lifeguards in the world.  After college she began teaching group fitness classes and became certified in Pilates, Step, Cycling, Resist-A-Ball and Aeroboxing, just to name a few. While writing her thesis for her Masters degree in Education, Erin discovered, “Physical Education for Lifelong Fitness,” which promotes sports and activities for children that will foster a lifelong love of exercise.  This too became a passion and led to a specialty certification in Children’s Fitness, followed by two certifications in nutrition. Erin spent a year as a creative movement teacher in the Virgin Islands before relocating to Georgia in 2010, where she currently teaches four R.I.P.P.E.D. classes and one Pilates class per week, in addition to traveling twice monthly to conduct certifications as a R.I.P.P.E.D. Master Trainer. Erin is a wife and mother to two amazing kids, ages 9 and 5.
