My story….

At the age of 9, my Mother died from Lupus which forced my twin sister, Katherine, and I to learn to cook for our Father, a hard-working Greek immigrant from Velvendos, Greece. During this time, I fell in love with the art of cooking. 

During college, I became a synchronized swimmer and my love for fitness was born. After graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Business, I became a Group Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer. There I was able to help others reach optimum health and have fun getting there.

Over the years I have seen the evolution of fitness and as the Fitness Industry grew, so did I. I learned the importance of Being Fit and Focused!

I am a Certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and the American Council on Exercise (ACE), a Nutritional and Healthy Living Consultant through Cornell University. I am also certified to teach Spinning, Power Yoga, Strength Training, Core Conditioning, and 5 different Les Mills Programs. 

In 2010, I opened the first Culinary Cooking and Community Center for Whole Foods Market in Annapolis, MD. It was a place for people to learn, teach and have fun.  

Moving to Philadelphia in 2013, I always had a vision of creating a studio that combined my two passions in life - fitness and cooking. 

Stop by anytime and try my passions out! Thank you for your support in the community. Frances Vavloukis, Owner of BodyX
