Meet our Fitness Instructors

Colleen Arnett

Colleen is the Coordinator of Operations in the Department of Housing & Residence Life here at Bellarmine. A long-time practitioner who appreciates both the physical exercise and the mental space that yoga offers, she completed her RYT-200 teacher training at Explore Yoga in 2016. Ever since, she has deeply enjoyed the opportunity to support students in navigating the balance between ease and challenge on (and off) the mat.

 

Mary Delk

My name is Mary Delk. I have been teaching fitness classes for over 25 years. I teach fitness classes regularly at Jewish Community Center. I have been instructing at Bellarmine for 5+ years. I have 2 daughters and one of them attended BU. I have one wonderful grandson who is 2 years old. I love teaching at the Surf because of the great energy from the students. We work hard and have fun! We have such a diverse group of individuals, it's always interesting. I feel a real connection with all the participants. 

Andrea Kirtley

Andrea Kirtley has been a fitness enthusiast most of her life, starting with high school sports and transitioning to group fitness classes as an adult.  Teaching fitness classes was a natural fit, as she is a high teacher by day.  Andrea has been teaching fitness classes since 2014, teaching strength, cardio, HIIT, and barre at various places in the community. She is an advocate for living a healthy lifestyle and incorporating activity into everyday life.  Outside of the studio and gym, you will find her paddle boarding, hiking, backpacking, dancing at music festivals, traveling, going to the lake, volunteering in the community, and cheering on her favorite musician (Go Racer Band!).
