Hi, I’m Rachel Whitely! I am mama to an amazing 2 year old girl and have been married to my high school sweetheart for 12 years. I joined FIT4MOM when we moved to Burleson based on the recommendation of my sister, a long-time participant of FIT4MOM. I quickly came to see how good FIT4MOM could be for both me and my daughter. We jumped straight into attending weekly classes and Run Club+.

Before becoming a mom, I was an elementary teacher and library media specialist. I also taught group fitness classes at our local gym. I’ve been participating in group fitness for over 10 years and absolutely love the energy and support that are present in each class. Running is another passion of mine that Run Club+ has allowed me to get back into as a mom. I was raised in San Antonio and went to Texas A&M, so you’ll always find our house cheering for the Aggies and Spurs!

Becoming a stay at home mom was a difficult transition for me. I missed my teaching community and was trying to adjust to being a first-time mama! FIT4MOM changed everything for us! We found the community that we needed, a great workout for me, and fun play dates and experiences for my daughter. She LOVES “watching mommies,” as we like to call it, and often talks about the instructors and her friends in the class. You can find me teaching Stroller Strides or attending the other stroller classes. You can also find me planning the crafts, events, etc on the weekly and monthly calendars for Our Village! I am so excited to be a part of the FIT4MOM team and hope it will bring you as much joy as it has brought my family!
