***TEAM LEADERS****
| ERIN |
 |
I worked at Jack Lalanne Sports Club for two years as a personal trainer, aerobics & aqua aerobics instructor. Prior to employment I was required to complete an extensive fitness instruction program. From a young age I've consistently competed in running events with distances ranging from 100 meters to marathon distance. I've trained under many prominent coaches and have learned a lot about proper technique & form. In addition, I have a great understanding of strength and flexibility training that complements running. Maintaining my health and fitness has always been a top priority for me. Therefore, I've always had a keen interest in fitness and nutrition books and have routinely employed a personal trainer to expand my knowledge and to improve my level of health and well being. In addition to my belief in all of the above, I've always felt strongly about the importance of having fun while exercising! |

| NICOLE | |
| Nicole's passion for health and fitness was the driving force behind her lifestyle starting at a very young age. Competing in cross country and track through high school and college helped lead Nicole to her career in fitness and healthy living. Seizing a great opportunity to help young people realize that a healthy, physically active lifestyle will lead to a more fulfilling life, Nicole moved to San Diego in 2004 where she directed a fitness and weight loss program for children and teens. As a personal trainer and fitness director, Nicole has worked with a wide variety of populations from youth to senior, and athletes to the under fit. Nicole understands each individual participant's varied needs and goals, and strives to lead workouts that help each individual safely challenge his or herself to reach personal fitness and health goals. Also, it is Nicole's goal, to help clients see the "gym" around them and all the possibilities for fitness at home or in the outdoors, not just in the traditional gym setting. Being able to merge her love of the outdoors and fitness has made teaching at My Valley Bootcamp a perfect match for Nicole. She enjoys seeing the great improvement in fitness and confidence from month to month of all the VBC members. Nicole looks forward to continuing to bringing her knowledge in outdoor fitness, weight loss, and nutrition to the members of VBC. |
