Alex, a Cincinnati native, grew up jumping Double Dutch in the neighborhood and on a competitive team as a child. She has always loved sports and activities that incorporate coordinated movements: including cheerleading, dancing, stepping, and jumping rope.
In 2011, Alex moved to Charlotte, NC where she began her career in grocery retail services and for the past six years in payroll, finance, and human resources. However, something was missing. She wanted to get back to doing one of the things she enjoyed the most growing up: Double Dutch.
Alex was introduced to *Double Dutch Aerobics (DDA) in 2019 during their nationwide tour. In 2021 she was granted the opportunity to become a Certified Double Dutch Aerobics Instructor to bring DDA to the Queen City. Following a weekend of intense training, she hit the ground running and launched Double Dutch Aerobics Charlotte in February 2022.
Connections throughout North Carolina, support from family and friends, passion for fitness, wellness, and love for motivating people has led to successful classes and events.
Come jump in with Sista Alex! You will often hear her say "YAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS" or "AAAAYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEE". Just know it's always a great day for DDA!
*Double Dutch Aerobics was founded in Atlanta, Georgia in 2014 by Michelle Clark, Double Dutch World Champion, and Sean Clark, Master Double Dutch Aerobics Instructor.
