Amy Fleming

My name is Amy Fleming, and I'm a fellow Etown Blue Jay, Class of 2011. By day, I'm a 7th grade English teacher at Elizabethtown Area Middle School. By night, I teach Zumba fitness, a dance fitness class, and STRONG by Zumba, a music driven HIIT class. My hope is that you always leave class feeling proud of the work you've done and happy that you took the time to sweat it out with me!

Samantha Crossley

My name is Samantha and I oversee all our summer camps and conferences here at the College. I love Bike Bootcamp because it combines my two fitness passions: cycling and strength! My hope is that every participant leaves class feeling stronger than when they walked in and with a smile on their face – fitness should be fun!

Peggy Shaffer

My name is Peggy Shaffer. I began taking yoga classes almost 20 years ago. After several years, I completed my 200-hour certification with Evolution Power Yoga. I decided to continue learning and completed my additional 300 hours with Create Karma. Since that time, I have become certified in Chair and Restorative Yoga. I am currently earning my certification in Yin Yoga. My goal is to have yoga accessible to anyone, and I look forward to instructing yoga this year!

Maddy Fratis

My name is Maddy Fratis and I am a Public Relations major! I teach Spin HIIT and Circuit Training/MoveIT for the RecWell Department. I have a passion for all things wellness and body positivity, I also love finding new ways to enjoy movement. I hope you’ll join me on the bike!

Alli Walker

Hi! I am Alli, a Pilates instructor majoring in occupational therapy and Spanish studies. As a dancer in Emotion and a cheerleader and gymnast throughout my childhood, I've always been fascinated by how the body moves and functions. I've enjoyed guiding students as a gymnastics coach for over 3 years and I'd love if you'd join me in class, blending Pilates precision with a fun and energetic approach. Let's work on strength, flexibility, and achieving your fitness goals together!

Corinne Nestor

My name is Corinne Nestor, and I am an occupational therapy major. Throughout my life I have participated in various sports including field hockey, swim, and lacrosse. Since ending these sports, I began spending lots of time in the gym learning my favorite ways to work out. Through this journey I have found that fitness classes are my passion, leading me to become a spin instructor for RecWell. I hope to share with everyone my passion for fitness and create an open and engaging environment for all fitness levels.
