Atlanta native Jacqueline Ballone brings years of training experience to Pace23. After graduating from Penn State, she caught the indoor cycling bug, and was quickly certified as an instructor. She has taught at gyms and studios in Atlanta, Philadelphia, and most recently, Austin. While she can’t imagine not being a fitness instructor, part of the reason is that she can combine three of her favorite things into one: staying active, listening to awesome music, and meeting new people. Her personal and fitness philosophy is simple: You chose to be here… be proud of yourself, applaud your effort and have FUN.
When she’s not instructing, she is a Consultant in the field of Public Relations and Communications and the proud parent of a cactus named Amelia. She’s a diehard Atlantan, and you can catch her enjoying the killer restaurant scene, hunting for dive bars, or laying vertical watching Netflix. Her next side venture is to take Hip Hop classes, so she can dance like Channing Tatum, and be in a Step Up movie.
