I have always had a love and interest in fitness. In order to pursue my dreams, I became a Beachbody coach in January 2016 then quickly decided I wanted to take it even further. I became certified in Insanity in October 2016. Insanity is a Beachbody fitness high intensity interval (HIIT) workout. In my classes, I show both modified and advanced moves! So, ALL fitness levels are welcomed. As a coach and trainer, I offer monthly fit groups on Facebook to hold you accountable with workouts and healthy eating. I also have a Facebook page called Mama Beks Fit Fam to motivate you, give fit tips and let you know when classes will be held. My family and I just moved to Granville/Newark so I am excited to meet new faces and help you on your health journey! Contact Rebekah at 740-424-3080 or find her online at Teambeachbody.com/Rebekaha
