Fitness has always been important to Jill and she is always training for the next physical challenge. She was introduced to Kickboxing a couple of years ago by a good friend and instructor. Jill was lucky enough to learn one-on-one and found she quickly fell in love with the sport. She took the instructor course through Fitness Kickboxing Canada with the goal of sharing the sport. It helps to build confidence and fitness with anyone interested.
