Lurie’s mom said she was the kinesthetic learner out of her siblings. Participating in after school sports and coming home at dark, her dinner was always waiting on the stove. In junior high and high school she joined a marching band and became a majorette, where she learned to love and appreciate the rhythm of music.

In the early years she started her job at a fitness center specializing in Nautilus,  Universal and MedX equipment. She also taught aerobics, aquatics, and worked for the Parks and Recreation center teaching strength and flexibility classes. Lurie was also a competitive body builder and trained other body builders for competition; including working with them on nutrition, diet, and choreographing their routines. She has also apprenticed with an equine specialist and has trained others in equestrian strength, something she also enjoys instructing. She has been working in the fitness industry for 40 years  as an personal trainer and instructor . She enjoys helping others, in her words, “No matter your age it’s always a good time to start fitness and nutrition.”

Lurie is also a Master Certified Reflexologist working with the face, hands, and feet, helping clients with relaxation and injury recovery. Acupressure, Essential oils, and compresses are her favored modalities for homeostasis in the body.

In her free time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends; studying health, fitness, nutrition, herbs, and being outside with her horse, and of course working out.
