REV FIT

Tara Reed is a certified Revelation Wellness® Fitness instructor! Her life was transformed when she first understood the freedom God intended for humanity to experience when we fully accept ourselves as we are! When we quit striving and start enjoying each and every moment we are blessed with a fulfilled life! There and only there does true freedom exist! Since this shift she has had more adventure and hope in her life like never before. In 2019 she hiked across the Grand Canyon with her husband and became a Revelation Wild Instructor. She looks forward to many more adventures with you!

Anna Hedrix is a certified Revelation Wellness Fitness instructor. Three years ago she started attending Joy’s classes and knew God was calling her someday to this ministry as she just loves combining faith and fitness! She played sports her whole life including hockey in college, but then struggled with infertility for 12 years and her body went through a lot. Through her Revelation Wellness certification in the fall of 2020, her life has been transformed with such joy and freedom in regards to health and wellness. She loved helping lead her first Wellness Revelation group book study and seeing the freedom so many people are finding. Her hope is for you to come enjoy moving the body God gave you regardless of your size, age, fitness level or shape and to celebrate and steward the good body you have. Fitness now is a ‘get to’ as we get to move our bodies to worship God and better serve those we love. She uses a variety of movement types in her classes to always incorporate some cardio and some strength training for a full body workout for all fitness types. Anna loves life and this community and is excited to have you join her to move and grow with you!
