My name is Diane Sorbello. I have been a cycling instructor at Elevate Fitness in Syracuse, NY for the last few years I was initially certified in the MOSSA RIDE program and then became certified in the SPINNING program. What does that mean to you? YOU GET AWESOMENESS IN AN INSTRUCTOR (did you feel my personality there??)!! I became an instructor not only because I love to ride, but because fitness journeys are important, starting with my own and then learning of others’…and each person’s is different, which is the beauty of learning about them! If I can help someone integrate routine exercise into their journey, my role is validated. Exercise and fitness journeys are very mental, which is why I am committed to helping people understand more about themselves and how they can push themselves without injury!
Music motivates me, so the right mix of music for cycling is important for an awesome experience. What music do I like? EVERYTHING…I can find a spin routine in almost every song! I love to sing along while I teach, and I love a great cadence…my specialty is climbing, and my classes lean heavily towards that…but there is always a sprinkle of sprints and flats in my classes! I am honored to be an instructor for P4P and have been since its inception! Giving back to the community is important and if this is how I can help others fundraise for eradicating childhood cancers, then “my job is done”.
