Hope grew up in Baltimore and spent a great deal of her childhood at the Baltimore JCC. When she moved from California back to Arizona, she wanted to return to her roots and join the Valley of the Sun JCC as a group fitness instructor and certified personal trainer. As a former athlete, coach, and teacher, Hope understands that everyone learns differently and she blends kinesthetic, visual and auditory learning into training. Hope specializes in classes for seniors, balance classes, and ballet barre.
