Chris joined CMS Recreation in April of 2016. With Roberts Pavilion's grand opening that Fall, the opportunity to create a Recreation class program for the CMC, HMC, and Scripps campuses became one of the priorities for him and the Recreation team. He has always been passionate about recreation, health and wellness., and has had the joy of working as a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, and rehab assistant in the past. While Jungle Gym is usually a class held in the Fitness Center, with a variety of different pieces of equipment, you can currently take it via ZOOM, wherever you are, with no equipment needed.
Raechel has worked at CMS for over 12 years. While her passions span health and wellness and sports medicine, she is filling in a gap for fitness instructors during our virtual programming. This semester Raechel is teaching the Body Weight Body Fit class to show everyone how to utilize body weight fitness to keep up activity without equipment. Lifelong health and wellness is her passion and finding a way to get things done, even when the environment or timing isn’t ideal, like teaching class from home while the dog and kids are running around.
