Interview with our new instructor Alison!

We hope you will join us in welcoming our new staff member Alison Denn. Please give her a big Artemis welcome when you see her in groups. She'll be teaching the Monday and Wednesday 6am classes. Curious to find out more about her?

1. Why Artemis?

Strength training has added to my life in so many ways— it has improved my confidence, my perception of myself and my body, my general attitude, and my ability to apply myself at my desk job. I love Artemis because it is a positive, nonjudgmental community of women who develop strength together, support each other, connect with each other, and have a good time. The strength built at Artemis can help us face the physical and mental obstacles of everyday life a little more gracefully, and I love that!

2. My favorite exercise is:

Pull-ups.

3. My least favorite exercise is:

Jump Lunges.

4. What makes me smile?

Random acts of kindness, dancing like a lunatic, fresh produce, chihuahuas, watching clients and friends make progress, summer rainstorms, and the list goes on...

5. While not at Artemis I’m…

Earning my M.S. in Geology at the University of Vermont, teaching undergraduate geology labs, cross-country skiing, jogging by the lake, playing clarinet, and cooking up healthy dishes.
