5K Training Program

Fall is in the air! We are so lucky as our fall weather is just gorgeous! It's another great reason to grab your child and head out to a Baby Boot Camp class!

Fall also means football! As a result, some of our Saturday classes will be moving to Sunday on home football weekends. This week's Saturday class will be moved to Sunday, Sept. 5.

If you have been to class lately, you have probably noticed one thing: LOTS OF BABIES! It is in the water! We have had 25 moms either deliver this year or who are currently expecting. It's wonderful to see all of those new babies and expanding bellies!

In addition to all of the new babies, we also welcome a new instructor! Welcome Karein Freehill! Karein is dynamic and incredibly talented! See below for more about Karein and her family!

We are also launching our first 5K training program. There are still spaces available!

Karein and her family

Karein, Lizzie (5 years), Mike, Jack (2 1/2 years)

Karein grew up in Bucks County, PA. She received a bachelor's in nursing at the University of Pennsylvania in 2000, and took a job at Tulane Medical Center in New Orleans. Karein continued her education and received a master's in education at Loyola University in New Orleans. At the same time, she also obtained her national credentials as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor.

After getting married in New Orleans, they moved to Baltimore, Maryland where her husband completed his orthopaedic surgery residency at Johns Hopkins. They soon added to their family with the birth of Elizabeth, "Lizzie," in July of 2005. When Lizzie was 1 year old Karein began teaching a stroller based exercise class and hasn't stopped since!. Their family expanded again in 2007 with the birth of their son Jackson.

Karein and her family will be here for one year as her husband completes a Sports Medicine fellowship at Stanford.

Welcome Karein! We are excited to have you join our Baby Boot Camp family!

Karein will begin teaching the Thursday 9:30AM class in Redwood City. In the future, she will teach Tuesday classes and substitute at Stanford.

Her first class is Sept. 9. Please come on out and help me welcome her to the team!
