INSTRUCTOR SPOTLIGHT-
MEET LEIGH! 

Hometown:
Canton, CT

Tell us a little bit about yourself:
I recently switched gears and moved from Boston where I ran a specialty foods business for 9 years to South Natick and started teaching at DanceFit. When we first moved almost a year ago, I knew very few people in the area, so running into Gina out and about in Natick was the best thing that happened! I looked into the DanceFit schedule and started attending the weekly mom & baby playgroups and baby-wearing classes. In doing so, I've met who are now my closest friends. Being immersed in the DanceFit world also allowed me the opportunity to pursue my passion for fitness, while spending time with my 9 month old son, Teddy, at the same time. My husband Tripp, Teddy and our pug, Finn live next to a farm on the South Natick/ Wellesley border so you'll often find us walking around the farm or through the trails at Elm Bank.

How long have you been with DanceFIT?
I started taking BalletFit classes at the Brookline studio back in 2010 while living in Boston. After a few year hiatus, I was thrilled to find that Gina's Natick studio was a quick 5 minute drive (or a great uphill walk!) away. 

Favorite thing about teaching at DanceFIT?
The people! The DanceFit community is composed of the most friendly, generous, supportive and encouraging mamas/ athletes/ dancers and friends. 
On a separate note, I love how ballet inspired workouts bring me back to my childhood and make me feel taller, stronger and more graceful. 

Check out Leigh's BalletFIT class as she fills in a couple of Saturday mornings at 8am in May!
