Missy Flagstad
Hello, I'm Missy Flagstad. I am a level 1 fitness instructor at Balanced Wellness. I live in Solon Springs with my husband Steve and our brittany spaniel, Remi.
I retired from my career job in August 2021 and discovered Essentrics through a class that Andi was offering at the Village Hall. At that time, I was four years post total right hip replacement. I wasn't sure if I would physically be able to do Essentrics. I immediately noticed a difference in the way my body felt after doing one class. It felt so good! Not only did I notice physical changes, such as improved flexibility, mobility and strength, I also felt more energized!
I decided to pursue certification so that I could safely teach Essentrics to the community in which I live. In December 2023, I earned Level 1 Essentrics certification. Moving forward, my goal is to attain all the levels offered through Essentrics. I enjoy learning new techniques and workouts, along with attending other fitness classes, hiking, and pilates. For me, having a variety of workouts is essential for my well-being and my body thanks me every day!
