Lea Otero has always been passionate about music, movement, and any imaginable combination of the two. She began playing piano at age four and dancing at age six. After a year of avidly taking spin, barre, and Pilates classes, Lea found herself wanting to teach group fitness classes herself – to reconnect with the path she began early in life, and to share her passion for movement, health, and fitness with the world.   Lea is a is Pilates Mat, TRX®, Schwinn® Cycling MPower, and 200-hour yoga certified instructor. She has been teaching Barre, Cardio Barre, Pilates, Spin, TRX, other group fitness classes and private training sessions for over four years. Lea is a successful competitive runner and 2013 Duke City Marathon finisher.   Non-athletically speaking, Lea is a humanitarian, nature lover, animal lover, joke teller, video game nerd, sci-fi nerd, X-Files fanatic, and excessive coffee consumer. Her goal in teaching is to awaken the magic that lives inside of us all, to provide a space where the outside world stays outside, and to empower, animate, and invigorate her clients - most notably via her myriad of signature, themed classes.
