Meet Our Instructors

Georgina Profile Web-01

Georgina started her journey 33 years ago by taking a step aerobics class and falling in love with fitness.  Within those years, she has trained and been certified in a variety of specialties including group ex, strength, and endurance training, Piyo, personal training and of course… Aquatic Fitness.  After subbing in for an aquatic aerobics class, Georgina found her true passion and immediately sought out and completed an ACE certification.  Even while working in her full-time career as an insurance agent, she always found time to teach.  Her mindset is always geared towards having fun while working out.  Georgina has been on board with the Romeoville Aquatic Center since day one and have an array of classes.  Her offerings range from low impact to high intensity, offering something for anyone and everyone.  Her fitness philosophy is that exercise should be regarded as a tribute to the mind, body and soul.  Georgina is the proud mother of her son, William Joseph, who started this fitness journey right by her side.  As just a toddler, he would accompany her to classes, always being her biggest supporter.


Roxanne Profile Web-01

Roxanne, a Romeoville resident of seven years, joined the Aquatic Center during its opening to support her recovery from a previous knee surgery and manage her Type 2 diabetes. What began as a personal journey quickly turned into a passion—she became a dedicated student, inspired by instructor Georgina, and soon expressed an interest in teaching. Georgina became her mentor, providing encouragement and chances to learn, and eventually prepared Roxanne for leading classes herself.

 Through consistent participation, Roxanne lost 35 pounds, strengthened her knees, and significantly improved her A1C levels. In 2024, she became a certified aquatic fitness instructor through the Aquatic Exercise Association (AEA), the global leader in aquatic fitness education and training. While recovering from her recent hand and knee surgeries due to osteoarthritis in early 2025, she became a certified S’WET™ Shallow Water Instructor (a popular up-and-coming format in aqua fitness). She also earned her AEA Arthritis Foundation Aquatic Program Leader certification. Her next goal: becoming a S’WET™ Silver Instructor (a new aquatic program specially designed to serve active older adults, aging athletes, and participants seeking a balanced, full-body workout).

 Roxanne and her husband, Ray (a fellow member and proud supporter), have been married 47 years. She’s a proud mom of four, Nana to nine, and loves gardening to the sounds of classic 70s and 80s tunes!
