Cristi Harrington

I am so excited to be part of Team Method Barre. I'm originally from Colorado, but have been in Michigan since 2001. I love the lakes, trails, and colors of the fall. I am married without kids, but grateful my sister lives on my same lake and shares her 3 children with me!

I’ve taught aerobics classes and served as a personal trainer for the past 20 years, and I've been teaching elementary physical education for 13 years. I am extremely passionate about exercise and nutrition. I teach a variety of different formats including boot camp, weight training, Zumba, kickboxing, step, kettlebell, cardio HIIT and interval, and much more.

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Northern Colorado in Psychology with an emphasis in Elementary Education. I received my Master’s Degree from Oakland University in Curriculum, Instruction, and Leadership and a minor in Physical Education from Eastern Michigan University.

I am looking forward to getting to know the clients at Method Barre!
