I was always the skinny girl growing up - eating whatever I wanted & never having to worry about gaining weight. Boy did that change when I got older! Not only did I notice the weight gain, but my energy was low, & I felt tired all the time. When my husband suggested we try something other than just going to a regular gym, I was down to try something different (gyms can also be intimidating if you don’t know what you’re doing or where to start!). When Farrell’s came up on our search within the North Loop during the summer of 2019, we decided to give it a shot. Spoiler: it was a game changer! I now look forward to going to the gym, as every day is different & challenging at the same time.
Farrell’s isn’t just your normal gym – it is also a community, which made me want to become an instructor. Everyone is so supportive & encouraging of each other, regardless of where you are at in your fitness journey. Yes, I go to get my exercise in, but the people are what makes me come back. It makes the workout seem like you’re in it together to push each other to your limits & reach new milestones (and make friends along the way!). I’m hoping that I can provide that sense of guidance, push, & support to our members during class, but also have them walk out with a smile saying ‘Wow that was tough, but it was fun. Let’s do it again!’. Hope to see you on the mats!
