Stacie is the founder of Paradise Fitness. She is a certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor through the Aerobic and Fitness Association of America (AFAA). She is licensed to teach Zumba®, Zumba Toning® and Zumbatomic®. She has also completed instructor training in the Masala Bhangra Workout, Flirty Girl Fitness and Hoopnotica Level 1.

Her interest in health and fitness has been life long. She started dancing at the age of 5 and was introduced to hip-hop dance and started choreographing as a member of various cheerleading squads in Rochester, NH. She continued to gain dance experience as a member of the University of New Hampshire cheerleading squad. In 2009 and 2010, she taught and led (as Michael Jackson) a group of 75 dancing zombies through the Portsmouth Halloween Parade as they performed choreography from Michael Jackson's Thriller video (See performance here.). She regularly performs with her dance troupe, the Iron Heart Circus. She also lead her dance partner, the Dover Fire Chief, to a Championship in the 2011 Dover Dancing with the Stars fundraiser.

In December of 2008, Stacie was hit by a drunk driver and suffered a broken leg which involved multiple surgeries and months of physical therapy to rehabilitate. It was through the temporary loss of her active lifestyle that influenced her to pursue her long-time dream of working in the health and fitness industry.

Stacie now loves working with clients who are also determined to make a life change and have the discipline and determination to do so. She hopes to make a positive difference in each of her client's lives using techniques that make workouts fun, challenging, and a bit different each time.
