In 2002, Melissa was introduced to Spinning (indoor cycling) at Eastpointe Health and Fitness and she was hooked instantly. For the first time, she found a class that was motivating and produced results. She literally watched her body transform over the following 2 years; by incorporating strength training and spinning into her workout program, she achieved results she had never seen before. Spinning became her passion and now she teaches because she enjoys being able to help others achieve their fitness goals. Her classes are energetic and motivating, pedaling to the driving beat of the music. Melissa is a FitTour Indoor Cycling certified instructor and CPR/AED certified.
As a mother of two, and over 18 years of indoor cycling experience, she has taken Spinning classes through both pregnancies and has had the joy of watching beginner riders build strength and confidence in their ability, physicality and health. She strives to make all of her classes challenging, but also FUN! “My philosophy to fitness is to challenge yourself, try new things, modify if you need to, and listen to your body. Everyone is built differently. We all get stuck into a routine that we can “dial in” but dialing it in does not produce results. You do what your body needs you to do and you do not injure it. Modify and eventually, you’ll get there.”
