Anita Theart,

Anita earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing from Stellenboch University in South Africa and specialized in Intensive Care Nursing. After moving to the United States in 2000 with her husband Jo (who is a Richmond Health Connection Spinning Instructor), she pursued a new career in the fitness industry and became a group fitness instructor of various programs.

She is a Les Mills instructor of Body Flow, a SilverSneakers instructor of Muscle Strengthening & Range of Movement (MSROM) and YogaStretch (for the active aging), and has SCW Fitness Education Certifications for Hatha Yoga, Tai Chi & Qi Gong for wellness professionals. Anita also creates her own routine for Richmond Health Connection’s CoreConnect (abs class).

Health and fitness have always been of great importance to her. She has participated in marathon running, ultra marathon kayaking, cycling, long distance open water swimming and adventure sports like whitewater kayaking, hiking, rock climbing, rappelling and canyoneering.

As a Personal Trainer, Anita is very motivated to help people reach their fitness goals and to make the journey a healthy and happy one!
