VerifiedAbout Francine
I am veteran Trainer, having been certified and maintained multiple certifications since 1990. My most recent is the ACE Health Coach certification. Additionally, I have the unique experience of over 18 years in the medical fields of Community Health/Preventative Health and Cardiac Rehabilitation.
Having a past history of obesity and having maintained my 35+ lb weight loss for over 20 years, I can relate to many of the emotional, societal and physical barriers pertaining to weight loss and weight maintenance. I train one-on-one and also small groups. I also teach group exercise in circuit training, Pilates, Zumba and older adult classes.
I believe in giving back and as such, I have co-coordinated the Dixville Half-Marathon, a local fundraising USATF half-marathon and relay race and also run it. Additionally, I am a long standing member of the National Weight Registry and the Sister Study. My goal is to help others "be the best they can be."
