We want to share more about the people on our Health and Wellness Team - their stories that give them the drive to participate in this ministry. This week, meet Christy Harbinson, a passionate fitness instructor, and a resource she's sharing with the Arcola community!

My name is Christy Harbinson. My husband Andy and I have 3 boys: Josh, in college, Jeremy and Aaron both in high school. Fitness is my passion! I am AFAA Group Certified giving me the opportunity to teach my favorite group training: bootcamps!

I have been teaching group fitness for 8 years; I owned my own business in TX for 4 years and I've been teaching here in VA for roughly 4 years. For me, meeting a client where they are in their fitness journey, helping them grow from that point and obtaining the goal is most rewarding. That keeps me going!

I work for The company Fitness Image Results. My manager is a wonderful Christian manager, Jeff Strahan, who has been in business over 16 years with a great following in Brambleton, Loudoun Valley, Lovettsville, and Purcellville.

I am a member of the Health and Wellness Committee at Arcola. The leadership is excellent and the committee is made of people working in different health related fields. My family and I joined Arcola in 2017. We feel right at home at Arcola. Pastor Chris is the best! We are grateful for Arcola and so happy to be part of the Arcola Church family.

Being physically active is important in all seasons of life, but particularly right now during the pandemic. Fitness Image Results, the company Christy works for, is sharing free Boot Camp Live videos on their Facebook page throughout the week! This is a great opportunity to stay in shape at home.
