We are pleased to welcome Laura Adams to the fitness center. She is a vibrant addition with many years of experience in various fields of expertise. Laura is certified in CrossFit L1/L2, RYT 200 Yoga Instruction, BLS/CPR/AED and as a diabetes educator.
After Laura’s son was diagnosed with Type I Diabetes in 2006, she attended the University of Arizona and obtained her Doctorate of Pharmacy. Laura’s passion for helping the community while helping her family set her on the path of providing diabetes education in the rural areas of Arizona. The triad of health and wellness, well-being and improving the quality of life includes nutrition and exercise, with some requiring medications. Making changes in nutrition, exercise, activities of daily living, educating on awareness and prevention of disease, she believes wellness is truly a lifestyle change. Laura’s daily motivation is to help her community while helping her family, inspire others and make an impact on their lives. To help her clients and patients, Laura obtained certifications as a personal training and yoga instructor, focusing on functional movement, flexibility, group fitness, kettle bells, corporate wellness, emergency medicine, medication therapy management, pain management, diabetes education, as well as pre- and post-rehabilitation training. She has overcome her own challenges in weight loss, hormone imbalance and adrenal fatigue through nutrition, fitness and life style changes. She enjoys continually learning and is in the process of obtaining another fitness certification, along with continuing education for nutrition, diabetes and pharmacy. She enjoys being active, working out, competing, eating right, challenging herself, spending quality time with family/friends and helping others do the same.
Laura is ready to assist Quail Creek residents with their needs and works by appointment. For questions or to schedule an appointment, please contact Laura by email at [email protected] or by phone at 520-548-2358.
