INSTRUCTOR SPOTLIGHT!
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Hi everyone! My name is Julia and I’m currently a master’s student studying Elementary Education. This is my second semester teaching spin at the uconn rec and I’ve loved every minute of it! Spin has always been one of my favorite cardio workouts so having the opportunity to teach it has been unreal!! During my undergraduate time at uconn I was on the women’s field hockey team 🏑and each day spin reminds me that I’m still part of a team! Every class is a chance for us to build strength and grow together through hard work with a fire playlist. I’ve taken some of the most amazing classes at uconn like functional training, 50/50, and now yogalates! Every rec instructor is so empowering and motivating that working with them never really feels like work. Seeing new faces join my early bird spin team is always the best feeling so come join us on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 6:45 to start your day off on the right foot! :)Can’t wait to meet everyone!🚲
🎉 Congrats 🎉 to our Kan Jam 🥏 Masktivity winners! There's one more night of Kan Jam - drop in to play tonight (2/25), no registration required!
