Introduce us to your family!
My family is made up of my amazing husband, Amarildo we’ve been together for almost 13 years and our four wonderful kids: Leo (almost 10), Angel (7), Aleida (4), and Ivan (23 months). We also have our sweet family cat, Rosie, who keeps us all on our toes. Life is busy and loud, but so full of love.
How long have you been a member of F4M Naperville? What made you come to your first class and which classes have you participated in?
I took my first class at the end of July 2024 it was a Stroller Strides class. They had an event after class, and my kids had such a great time that I knew we had found something special. I was actively looking for a place to exercise where I could bring my kids along, and FIT4MOM kept popping up in Facebook posts it immediately caught my attention. Since then, I’ve been regularly attending Stroller Strides, Strides 360, and Virtual Body Boost. I also love joining the social events and mom outings, and my kids always look forward to the playgroups after class.
What are your favorite things to do with your family?
We love being outdoors and spending time in nature. Whether we’re going for walks, exploring new parks, or heading to the pool or beach we’re happiest outside. The older kids enjoy going fishing with Dad, while I take the two little ones for a walk. It’s a great way for all of us to recharge and connect.
What would you say to a mom considering joining our village?
Give it a try you will NOT regret it! Everyone is so welcoming and kind, and you’ll quickly find other moms you have so much in common with. Plus, you get to bring your baby with you the whole time, which makes it even more special and convenient.
What has been your biggest gain since joining FIT4MOM Naperville?
I’ve gained an awesome village a community of moms who truly support one another. Physically, I feel stronger every day, but even more importantly, I’ve come out of my shell and become more social than I ever imagined I could be. I’m so thankful for every friend I’ve made through FIT4MOM.
