Teacher expertise and credentials
Maine Teaching Certificate in Secondary Education
Master's Degree in Education from Ashford University
I am a former member of a Marine Corps Sniper Team. All of our training was extremely high-level. We routinely ran 5-10 miles daily. We often walked upwards of 25 miles to reach our destination. All of our muscle training was calisthenic in nature (using only body weight). Physical fitness was a daily part of life. I love to help others develop a love for fitness.
