ABOUT MARIETTA MEHANNI
I have been a fitness instructor and educator for over 30 years. It’s my life, my passion, and it excites me every day. I can still remember when I started working out. I was surprised to discover that I couldn’t do everything that other people could. I felt embarrassed and like a failure. But I persevered and learned more about my body, and realised that there were many other people with different abilities and skill levels like me.
“Fitness is my life, my passion, and it excites me every day.”
