After a successful two-decade career as a publicist for several global beauty brands, Jen Celata stepped away from the boardroom to embrace her second act: empowering others through movement.  Jen has always enjoyed being physically active so this former Division I swimmer and life long athlete decided to transform her passion for wellness into a full-time calling as a certified fitness instructor.  

Her classes blend challenging moves with epic beats and she is dedicated to helping everyone build confidence, energy and joy through movement.  She believes it is never too late to rewrite your story and her mission is simple: prove that your second act can be your strongest yet.

Jen lives in Harrison with her husband, 14 year old son, 12 year old daughter and feisty Bernedoodle.  She enjoys traveling, building the perfect playlist and being your biggest cheerleader.

Jess Press Kaplitt is a professional dancer. Her career has included dancing for the Knicks as a Knicks City Dancer to movies, commercials, print ads, and stage appearances. She is in her mama era, but is super passionate about empowering women (guys welcome too) to feel like their best selves, and carve out that “me time” losing themselves in the music and movement. Her class is a fun sweat sesh starting with aerobics inspired dance cardio to total body toning, ending with a spiritual cool down. Perfect way to start your day full of all the good feels.
