"I want to bring people in with the workout, but when they leave I want them to remember how they felt and the community of all the people around them that they just gained. I want people to feel like they can forget about anything bad that happened that day and have an hour for them! I want them to have so much fun they forget they are working out at all." |

is a certified Group Fitness Instructor. She got her first certification in 2020 and never looked back. She currently teaches High Fitness and UpBeat Barre at Hitchcock and is in the process of becoming a Personal Trainer. What led her to get these certifications was rediscovering her love of fitness after having children and losing herself a bit. She had never tried group fitness before and instantly fell in love - her love of music goes deep and to mix a workout with music was amazing. That, and the way the instructors made her feel during class stuck with her - so much so, that she decided she wanted the chance to give that back to others.

UpBeat Barre Class
What one student has to say about Rebecca, High Fitness, and Hitchcock:
"In the spring of 2022, Hitchcock's list of programs included a new exercise class called High Fitness taught by an instructor new to the area. I decided to give it a try - and Rebecca and this fitness class turned out to be absolute treasures. Over the last 2 1/2 years, most Tuesday evenings from 7 to 8pm, a group of amazing women join in on this high energy, very fun class. There’s been so much laughter, friendships formed, stories told (and a lot of sweat)! Hitchcock Academy is such an incredible asset to our town and local communities. It’s a place where this kind of magic happens."
