TEACHING STYLE:

Working out doesn’t have to be boring! I like to bring a fun energy to class and make sure everyone feels welcomed and comfortable. Whether this is your first class or your 100th I want everyone to walk out of the room feeling empowered! My teaching style is motivating with a little laughter and I will definitely make sure you feel the burn to the very last minute of class. Can’t wait to see you at the barre 😉

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ALYSSA

I am an Elementary School Counselor and love working with children and families to support. I am motivated to help others in all ways, at work it is with children and at Merritt, it is helping adults feel good and strong. Working out has always been my outlet and helps me relieve stress. As much as I love working out I also love food!! I am a big foodie and love a good Italian pasta dish with a glass of wine or some yummy tacos with a margarita!
