The CHEERFIT ambassador community is filled with leaders and motivators who all share a passion for fitness, love for cheering and drive to help inspire others.

CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
I was born two months early and had to have two open heart surgeries before I was 12 days old. I also have had five different surgeries since then. I’m also missing my S1 vertebra, and I also have spina bifida, (which I needed have to have surgery for). I have had a extremely hard time of keeping my back and shoulders open because of the doctors wiring my chest back together. So I have struggled with every new skill I’ve learned.
Fitness is important to me because I need to stay healthy to make sure my heart stays healthy.
With scraping and blading and taping, (once a week) and lots and lots of stretching I have been able to keep my back open. Fitness is important to me because I need to stay healthy to make sure my heart stay healthy. I have learned that know matter how much you stretch you can never stretch enough.
