My name is Jennifer Valentine.  In 1999, I smoked two packs of cigarettes a day, and weighed 50 lbs more than I do now.  In 2003, I completed the Whistlestop Marathon in Ashland, Wisconsin! If I can do it, you can do it too, and I would love to help you!

yogafitnesswellness....has grown from a desire to help others achieve wellness.  After participating in Yoga for a while, I decided I would like to offer classes to others in our small town.  It has taken time to get people to understand the benefits of Yoga, but those who attend regularily love the feeling they get from a class.

After losing 50 lbs and training for a marathon, I decided I also wanted to offer others the opportunity to be healthy. There is really no mystery to good health. Good eating habits along with regular exercise is really all it takes.  A commitment is the important thing.  Once you feel good, you won't want to go back to your old ways.  If you need encouragement, sign up for my mailing list.  I will email you encouragement, recipes, exercise tips and other tidbits of information you may find useful.  Also, feel free to email me with questions, ideas or comments!  Together, we can help each other achieve wellness....

My Philosophy

My mission is to provide encouragement to anyone wishing to get healthy.  Healthy does not mean skinny!  It means overall wellbeing, physically, emotionally and spiritually.  Without all three, you cannot be totally healthy!  I also strive to offer products and supplements of only the highest quality.  I will only make available products I feel will enhance your well-being.  Feel free to pick and choose the products and supplements to best suit your needs.  Again, email me with questions. 

Dan and I on September 20, 2008, just before we started the Walker Marathon Relay.  We took 2nd place in the 40-49 division, each completing a 1/2 marathon with hills, trails and roads.
