Mary Albert – Group Exercise Instructor of the Year 2022

We are very proud to announce Mary Albert as the Aquatic and Recreation Victoria’s Group Exercise Instructor of the Year, 2022.
PARC group exercise wouldn’t be the same without one very special person. Mary is a beloved group fitness instructor and valued PARC employee, who in late 2022 was awarded at the ARV Industry Gala awards. Mary took home the highly accoladed title of Group Exercise Instructor of the Year, and we couldn’t be prouder.
Like many of our members, Mary first joined a gym and started to participate in classes, falling in love instantly. Mary found so much passion in participating, feeling so connected to the instructors and other participants, finding her passion straight away. Mary knew this was her path, to help others feel great and build their confidence.
Mary is loved by her PARC member community, her colleagues that make up the Peninsula Leisure team, and more than anything, she is focused on helping our community improve their lives through activity and connection.
Mary can motivate and inspire our members. Her effectiveness can be seen by the way her tribe of followers keep coming to her classes time and time again.
She is passionate, giving, smart and constantly goes over and above to deliver exceptional classes. A true industry leader and inspiration.
We are so proud of you Mary!
