In this episode of TennisPAL Chronicles we look into the benefits of Yoga on the body of a tennis player. Our guest, Marcia Gray, was born and raised in Washington State. She attended University of Washington as a Sociology major. Being in the taller spectrum, Marcia played basketball all the way through high school. Her favorite activities are water skiing, snow skiing, and in the gym-jump rope is a perennial go to. A self-described gym rat, Marcia always finds herself chasing the endorphin rush of exercise and weight training. "I became certified as an ACE CPT (certified personal trainer), ACE GEI ( group exercise instructor), and then a US Navy Fitness Trainer where I served for about 7 years. While there, I certified as a TRX Trainer and Pre-Natal Fitness Trainer as well which allowed me to better serve the large population of military service men and women, their families, retirees, and Dept. of Defense civilians. I can honestly say I absolutely loved my job!"
