About

Movement is my favorite.

I am a CPA by day, but what really lights me up is movement. Growing up dancing, I entered college craving beat based movement. This led me to teach my very first fitness class in the summer of 2012. I immediately fell in love with the art of MOVEMENT. Variety is the spice of life… HIIT - I want to learn it! STEP - let’s bring the best of the 80’s back! I even fell in love with the movement I never thought the cardio junkie in me would say — YOGA. Over the years I have taught formats such as Cycle, Dance Club Cardio, TurboKick, INSANITY, HIIT, Circuit/ Tabata Training, Step, Sculpt, Barre, Cycle, Strength training, Vinyasa Style Yoga, and Pilates. The one thing I have learned through it all — Exercise doesn’t have to be pain & punishment. I hope I can help you find movement, connection, sweat, and maybe make your day a little lighter and happier. Most recently, you could find me teaching vinyasa flow, yoga sculpt, mat pilates and barre in the LO Room at HYLO Fitness in West Ashley and Mount Pleasant, step, sculpt and dance at Jane Do in downtown Charleston and special events all around the Charleston Area! I have recently relocated to Nashville, TN for my spouse’s medical training and can’t wait to acclimate to the new fitness scene— HIRE ME PLEASE! I am always craving to learn new modalities, new formats & meet new communities.

I workout at the same gym everyday, and this class makes me feel like I’m switching up my routine.

Loved this class and highly recommend!” - Special Event Review

  • “Brooke’s classes are so uplifting and energizing, I always know I’m in for a good mental and physical challenge. It is obvious she puts a lot of thought into the sequencing and messaging of her classes. She has a way of motivating the room without being aggressive.

  • “Brooke is always so creative and energetic. I have taken countless classes of hers and am always looking forward to the next because she is always going to bring the intensity and something different than before. This morning’s class was no exception, and one of my favorite because of her theme. Love getting to sweat with her and build our relationship on and off the mat!” -FitGrid Review

  • “I had such a blast attending the FREEDOM workout with Julia and Brooke! It didn’t even feel like a workout! It felt like I was hanging out having a party with my girlfriends. It felt like an open and welcoming space where I could let loose and have some fun while moving my body in the process!” - Special Event Review
