Joy Dry/OwnerHi there! My name is Joy and I'm the owner of Get Fit Together. As a Nesta Certified Group Fitness Instructor, I'm passionate about helping people find joy in fitness, no matter their background or fitness level.
Growing up in Concord NC, I didn't have an athletic background. It wasn't until my mid-thirties that I discovered my love for fitness, thanks to some amazing instructors at the gym. In 2008, I started teaching group fitness classes for an all ladies gym in Concord. From there, I spent most of my fitness career teaching boot camp in the park classes for the City of Concord. I believe that fitness should be a fun and inclusive experience, which is why I offer a wide variety of classes that welcome all levels of fitness on all steps of the fit & healthy journey. Whether you're into boot camp, circuit workouts, strength training, HIIT, step aerobics or low impact workouts, there's something for everyone at Get Fit Together. My motto is simple: "Find a workout you love and repeat it often." I hope to inspire you to reach beyond your goals and discover the joy of fitness! |

This program completely transformed LaCorey's approach to working out, making it so much fun that they forgot they were even exercising. As a result, LaCorey became a certified Xtreme Hip Hop instructor in May 2022 and is eager to help others experience the same positive impact on their lives. LaCorey invites everyone to join them in getting moving and having some fun together. |
