Joining the mentor group was one of the best things I've done in my 38 year career in fitness. You do what you say and actually MENTOR. In this age of people looking out for themselves, it's still hard to get our heads around somebody who gives so much of themselves.
I only joined this mentoring group in the past few months and have had so many aha moments already. I know my teaching, communication and personal mentoring of newer fitness professionals has improved greatly. And THAT gives me so much joy. All I can say is a humble and sincere thank you again and again.

Sarsha Mahr

I joined the Aqua mentoring group with the thought what am I going to get out of this group? Is there anything else I can learn? What can l bring to this group that is different? Well, let me tell you l have made friends for life l have taken something away from every single person and every mentoring session! But I also have the most amazing leader who personally will take time out of her personal life to help another Aqua member who is in a struggle! What l pay for my Aqua mentoring is nothing compared to what I get out of it!!
Thank you Marietta you saved me!
