We have exciting programs such as play dates, weekly coffee Sip & Strolls, Moms Nights Out, themed classes, and much more! FIT4MOM UA+Hilliard wants to connect moms with fitness, wellness, and eachother.

I am thrilled to introduce myself, Marisa Barsotti registered dietitian, Ayurvedic health educator, yoga instructor, fitness specialist, preschool teacher, and above all mother of 3 amazing daughters. It's been over 18 years of learning and participating in all things wellness. My Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and RD license was just a jumping off point into a lifelong passion of helping others be well.

I became interested in supporting moms when I started teaching FIT4MOM's prenatal format, FIT4BABY, in 2020. It was a flashback into that world of excitement, fear, anxiety, and to be honest the first time feeling isolated and only the start of being lonely. Postpartum depression only exasperated both of those feelings. I became really invested in emphasizing to these moms to be that it doesn't have to be isolating or lonely and everything about FIT4MOM's mission supports moms in all stages of motherhood. When the previous owner moved into a larger role with FIT4MOM headquarters in marketing and was looking to sell; I stepped in. I felt like it was a culmination of everything I had been working towards, 18 years of side hustles, and really getting to know and trust my passion for wellness in the motherhood journey.

I believe wellness isn't just about exercise; it's about community, support, and access to resources that moms may not even know exist. Becoming an affiliate partner at Be Well Collective Columbus has become a bridge to those resources. Through FIT4MOM, I am able to provide a platform that brings moms together, not only in our stroller mommy and me classes, prenatal fitness class at the Bob Crane Community Center or Body Well fitness and nutrition program, and mom only classes that focus on building strength in a mom only setting. There really is nothing like it out there. A space where moms can truly feel accepted as they are PLUS they don't have to worry about childcare! I truly feel FIT4MOM UA+Hilliard offers a space where moms can find their strength and community.

Come celebrate with us at this mommy and me wellness event on Saturday, October 10th from 10:00-12:00 at Homestead Metro Park in Hilliard! It will be a fun weekend activity that is kiddo AND mom friendly. Enjoy local small businesses, tasty treats, coffee, and the opportunity to move your body through a sampling of our class formats.
