Mary shares her perspective on parenting, maintaining cultural ties, taking risks and following her own path to success, not the one that others, including her father, thought she should take.
Born in Kenya, Africa, Mary Onyango began her fitness career as a gymnast and Junior Olympic Volleyball player at a young age. She was given a full scholarship to University by the time she was a freshman in high school and was on track to get her degree when she decided to change course. She rediscovered her passion for music and movement when she moved to the USA and the idea of being able to do what you love while inspiring people to be fit, healthy, happy, and youthful were the driving forces in her career change to group fitness instructor and personal trainer. She has become a driving force in the NYC fitness community and is becoming a star in the digital fitness space. Coming full circle, Mary is also planning to go back to school next year to complete the degree she started so she can initiate her plan to bring fitness, health and wellness to her home country of Kenya.
