Sara Tips

Sara has been teaching the Les Mills programs BODYPUMP, CXWORX, and BODYFLOW for a relatively short time, but has been an avid participant for over 15 years. 

She loves teaching group fitness for so many reasons.  It is such fulfilling work for her.  She loves to bring fun, challenging workouts to members and witness them build their strength, endurance, and confidence.  It is an excellent way to meet great people from all walks of life, and of course, to stay fit and healthy together.

She is a Teacher Librarian in the North Thurston School District.  She has an amazing husband and two smart, lovely, and strong daughters. She loves living in Olympia.

She is passionate about  being active and good food - especially chocolate.

She is wildly happy when her students at Meadows Elementary do random acts of kindness.

She feels most confident in motion.

She is terrified of the consequences for how we have treated our environment.

She never grows old of seeing kindness in action.

She is inspired by people who don’t give up and try to make the world a better place.
