JANINE RICH-SCARLETT, Director of Fitness & Wellness

Janine became the Director of Fitness & Wellness at BCC in 2007, bringing her continued passion and dedication to helping others achieve a healthy lifestyle and will be celebrating 34 years in the fitness industry this year. “I am a Coach that believes fitness and wellness mean something different to each individual. A fitness and wellness lifestyle is not cookie-cutter, nor is it one size fits all. Each client’s program is created with a success roadmap, including progression markers, to help them recognize their success along the journey to their end goal.”

I enjoy helping our members become the strongest mental and physical version of themselves.”

MARISSA LOFORTE

She grew up enjoying yoga, weightlifting, 15K races, and the great outdoors in upstate New York.

She is registered with the Yoga Alliance, studied Ayurveda, and is a registered Occupational Therapist. “I teach from the heart in a warm and inviting way, allowing the practice to be available to everyone. The practice isn’t about how far we go in a pose; it’s about learning how the poses can support our activities, exercise, and everyday functional movements. My approach specializes in promoting wellness through awareness, education, and yoga.”

VANESSA O’BREY

Group Exercise Instructor & Health, Wellness, and Life Coach Vanessa joined our team in December 2013.

She is an avid runner, and fitness has always been an essential part of her life. “Yoga is a dance between control and surrender.

Health Coaching provides the right system, support, and accountability to help you transform your health and your body—for good!”
