Erika was born and raised in the Tampa Bay area. She attended the University of South Florida where she got two bachelor’s degrees; one in Women and Gender Studies and the other in Public Relations and Advertising. Her passion, though, has always been fitness.
She started practicing yoga at the age of fourteen and instantly fell in love, deciding to enroll in her first Yoga Teacher Training program as soon as she was able. Having always been pretty shy, she hoped this would encourage her to come out of her shell and gain confidence, and it did just that!
Erika went on to teach yoga classes weekly at USF before graduation and has now been consistently teaching classes a local studio. She wanted to dive deeper into the world of fitness, so she began studying for her NASM Personal Training Certification. Now, Erika is excited to bring her love of fitness to others around her in the hopes that it will improve her clients life as much as it has her own!
