LEIGH LOWERY
Leigh is a native of Richmond and teaches our Dance Team classes. She says she's more of a weights girl but knows she needs cardio - she guesses that's why she loves dancing so much; because it gives her cardio without thinking about exercise. She says she's been working out her whole life in one way or another. She danced for JMU and Kings Dominion and then moved to New York City. She returned to Richmond and taught dance, but after becoming a mom - did mostly at-home workouts because she couldn't find good adult classes.
She discovered TURN when she came in for one of our choreography collaborations with Richmond Urban Dance called TURNt and the rest is history. What does she love about TURN? "Everything from the location to the instructors to the supportive community to ALL THE CLASSES offered! Love the range!!!"
MORE ABOUT LEIGH:
Birthday: August 19 (LEO)
Favorite thing to do outside of TURN? Reading, choreographing, watching movies with the fam, eating, being with friends, a nice brunch with a cocktail.
Favorite food or drink? I love all food, and I will try anything once! But seriously, I’ll never turn down a doughnut and a cold glass of milk.
Favorite dance move? Anything that challenges me and puts me out of my comfort zone but looks dope...and I nail it. :)
Fitness inspiration? Me. I can’t wait to be 40 and FLY!!! :)
Favorite inspirational quote? “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight. It’s the size of the fight in the dog.”
Favorite song to workout to? Something with a sick beat. Anything I can lip-sync along to.
