Rebekah Reidy is the founder of  ”Fit for Fashion” and is a Certified Personal Trainer. She is currently pursuing her Masters of Health Science in Nutrition & Dietetics. She trains 1-on-1, small private groups, and teaches: Cardio Kickboxing, Body Sculpting, and all the Outdoor Boot Camps offered throughout the week.

 I often get asked the question “Why are you a trainer?” and the answer is pretty simple: Because I want everyone to FEEL good about themselves. Even though I grew up dancing and playing sports,  I ended up reaching my absolute heaviest weight during my freshman year of college. I had very low-self esteem, never wanted to try anything new, and literally hated looking in the mirror. After a few friends encouraged me to join them in the gym – I became hooked. Forty-five to fifty pounds lighter, I have never been so energetic and full of life. It’s my passion to want to help others feel the same way about themselves. Weight holds us back, literally, and it shouldn’t! We should all feel GREAT about our bodies.
