Hi Fam! My name is Deanna Burke, originally from Upstate New York and Boston areas, I’ve been here at ClubWorx for over 18 years. I’ve worked in all facets of the club but pride myself on being Group Exercise Director to our amazing program filled with the best instructors and most loyal members. Athletics has played an important role for both me and my family. I excelled throughout high school and college, playing softball & volleyball and competing on a national level in cheerleading and track & field. During my 3 years as a sprinter on the Indoor & Outdoor Track and Field I was All-Conference and All-American academically, and ranked 13th nationally in the 100m dash and 10th in the 55m dash. I was so motivated by athletics that I majored in Physical Education vowing to teach children the importance of staying active and healthy in life. Now I’m the mom to 3 amazing adult children but after having them, I lost over 30 pounds by eating right and designing my own workout plans. I owe every ounce of confidence I possess to the experiences I’ve had in athletics. I know how amazing it feels when I achieve a goal, I have set for myself, and I want to share that with anyone who will let me. With so many years’ experience and specialty training, I have found my niche in training clients and fell in LOVE with Group Exercise. I love our ClubWorx family and from the moment I set foot in NC I knew I found my community! I have certified in over 8 Les Mills programs, teach freestyle and have numerous specialty certifications such as Personal Training, CrossFit Level 1, and Battling Ropes to name a few. My motto is – if I can do it, so can you!! Even if that means we take baby steps together. I will motivate and stand by our members to push them to the level that they desire so they are truly proud of themselves!
