Welcome back, D.C!  I am super excited to have you all hear my conversation with Gabby Lubin on this week's episode! Gabby is a wellness professional, founder & CEO of spark by gabby, and Harvard Graduate School of Education Masters student. With a background in early childhood education, Gabby left the classroom to answer the question “how can we help teachers stay in the classroom?” This systemic issue moved her to create her own wellness space that combines mind-body, community, and social justice. She hosts a variety of virtual classes from HIIT to yoga to low-impact to core to spin. Her speciality is HIIT, but not any old HIIT class. The class parallels daily experiences you may have to ultimately support your overall emotional (and physical) growth. Spark by gabby’s unique HIIT class incorporates HIIT moves focused on strength, core, and cardio with mindfulness and a brief meditation at the end. No meditation experience necessary. As the body’s cortisol increases during exercise, we work to decrease cortisol through a mindfulness exercise. ​Gabby teaches HIIT, LIIT, core & more, spin, and stretch & breathe.
