Lia Montelongo is a group fitness instructor and yoga teacher who has dedicated her life to fitness. She joins us on the ProFitness Podcast to share her story and lessons learned along the way.

Born and raised in Merrionette Park, a small town on the south side of Chicago, Lia was raised by a single mother and was a latchkey kid, coming home and taking care of herself at the young age of 9.
Growing up in an area with limited opportunities for dance and after-school programs, Lia taught herself how to dance in the garage, eventually choreographing her first performance for the Mount Greenwood Colts cheerleading team at the age of 14.
Fast forward to 19, when Lia’s fitness career really took off. She continued to work as a group fitness instructor, leading classes and inspiring others to achieve their fitness goals.
Lia’s story is a testament to the power of determination and the importance of following your passions, no matter what obstacles may come your way. She is a true inspiration to those who have faced challenges in their lives, and she is a shining example of what can be achieved with hard work and a never-say-die attitude.
