Throughout her 3 years as a group fitness instructor, Amanda strives to make your workout the best part of your day. Growing up, Amanda spent most of her time in the dance studio (Irish dance studio that is) and went on to win the World Championships three times. If you ask really nicely, she might show you a jig or two. When she’s not in the gym, you can catch her hanging with her two puppies, riding her bike down the peninsula, or at the nearest music festival with her best pals. She’s got jokes, she’s got dance moves, and she will make sure you’ll never leave the gym without a smile.
