Melinda is nationally certified in Group Exercise and Personal Training. She previously worked at the Chester and Manchester YMCAs in Richmond. Melinda has 3 grown children and 3 beautiful grandchildren. Her hobbies and interests include hiking, biking, swimming, reading, landscaping, and of course exercising!

Anyone, regardless of age or physical ability, can practice Tai Chi. Tai Chi is used to reduce stress and increase flexibility, muscle strength and definition, energy, stamina, agility, and feelings of well-being. |
