A Bit About Me
I commenced in the Fitness industry in 1996 as a fitness instructor and then added Aqua Aerobics in 1998.
In 1996 I also became a Les Mills Pump instructor teaching at various gyms.
In 2010 I switched over to BTS (Body Training Solutions) now known as MOSSA, teaching step and their version of Pump called Power.
In November 2013 I trained with Schwinn Cycle to obtain my freestyle cycle certification.
So over the 22 years of teaching I am experienced in and can teach:
Aqua, aqua for older adults, all freestyle aerobics including step, pre-choreography bar and step class, cycle, seniors, Stretch, school kids, boxing, fitball/swissball, X-fit and circuit classes.
I was also the Fitness co-ordinator from 2006 to 2015 with V & R Fitness (V & R Gym) until they closed so have experience with timetabling, organising covers and the hiring of instructors.

Thank you for your 14 years of service supporting the Healthy Lifestyle Program. The program has been operating for 40 years to support older adults to maintain healthy, active lives. Participants regularly praise group leaders for accommodating health issues and supporting newcomers to settle into a new social network. I am sure that you would have witnessed and been a part of a range of benefits to participants resulting from your teaching and guidance in your specialty area of aqua exercise, gentle pace. I thank you for your reliability and note that you have also provided mentorship to some of our less experienced aqua leaders as part of your involvement with Healthy Lifestyle.

Angela was one of my star Group Fitness Instructors. Angela is such a talented, loyal, dependable and popular Instructor. She teaches a wide range of exercise programs and relates and shares her passion with a variety of age groups. Angela frequently received both verbal and written positive feedback and what stood out from the members comments was her energy, the way she responded and communicated to her class members, her professionalism and her kindness of making sure her members felt like they were part of a very special experience. She definitely made a difference. Angela would be an asset to any employer and I wholeheartedly recommend her for any endeavour she chooses to pursue.

As the new Group Fitness Coordinator at The Fitness Edge, I have had the pleasure of working with Angela for only 6 months. In that time I have been greatly impressed by Angela’s dedication to her class participants, this gym, and continued education in the fitness industry. Angela is fondly known as “The Energizer Bunny” and is an incredibly experienced industry professional. She has a gift for keeping participants both informed and entertained with excellent “WHY”-focused teaching and a vibrant personality. Angela knows the participants in her classes (Aqua, Cycle, Shape Step ‘n’ Burn, Power, Boxing) by name and is invested in creating safe, fun, effective fitness experiences for her class
