After
moving to Palm Beach county in 2001, Leo
was a rehabilitation technician at Wellington
Regional Medical Center until she had
her first child, Alec, in 2003. Leo left
the workplace to spend time with her son
but she didn’t leave the ‘workout’.
She and Alec were regulars at the fitness
center where she worked out. Leo lost
a remarkable 20 lbs and joined the Pilates
revolution to share her skill and passion
for wellness with Fit Studio clientele. |
Leomar
has worked as a Physical Therapy Aide
in both outpatient and nursing home settings,
experience that has prepared her well
for dealing with the unique requirements
of elderly and special needs clients.
Later, as Fitness Instructor at Imperial
Point Medical Center in Ft. Lauderdale,
Leo assisted Exercise Physiologists in
performing fitness evaluations including
body fat compositions, flexibility tests,
sub-max treadmill testing and exercise
prescriptions. In addition, she worked
with phase 4 cardiac and pulmonary rehab
patients, performing ongoing assessments
of participant’s needs, exercise
and conditioning response to exercise
and lifestyle changes. |
