Mariana has been a group fitness instructor since 2013 and has taught dance, cardio, yoga and strength training at several gyms throughout the Seattle-Bellevue area.
As a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and a Les Mills Tone and Body Flow instructor, Mariana brings a wealth of knowledge to her classes. She tailors every class to the participant's needs and is focused on helping her students achieve their goals.
She helps her clients achieve their goals in a fun and engaging manner, while also understanding that we often have to juggle those needs with other obligations. She's a popular instructor known for her fun and easy going demeanor.
During this period of COVID-19 all her in person group classes are on hiatus. However, she is available for online instruction and 1 on 1 private lessons.
First session is free over the phone to discuss goals and to ensure we're a right fit for each other. I ask all private clients to be committed to practicing on their own in order to achieve their desired results. To find out more contact me here.
