Liz Tomasi, owner/operator of The Mommy Movement LLC, is the loving mother of Sev (born in 2007), and wife of Ric Tomasi. She co-founded The Mommy Movement in December of 2007, with her best friend, Amanda (former co-founder). She is now the sole owner of TMM, as well as the main stroller fitness and baby yoga instructor. She is certified as a pre/postnatal fitness specialist, and is a stroller fitness trainer.
Liz enjoys almost any type of fitness, running being one of the big favorites. She ran her first half marathon in November 2008, and plans to run more in the future. Liz also has a passion for working with children, so it is no wonder she went to the University of Missouri St. Louis for Early Childhood Education. She worked as a preschool teacher before having her daughter. After little Sev was born, Liz decided to stay at home with her and work towards starting her own business. She joined a stroller fitness class, and realized it was her calling. It was the perfect way to spend time with Sev, get a good workout and meet other moms. Stroller fitness combined two of her favorite things in the world, fitness and children. Liz absolutely loves leading other moms into health and fitness.

During classes, she not only lost all of her baby weight, but an additional 5 pounds! She has made some great friends during these classes, who also enjoy being active outdoors with their little ones. She believes these classes have been a wonderful way for her son Ezra to have social interaction with other children and for her to have the motivation to help her meet her fitness goals. Nikki, enjoyed classes so much that she decided to become more involved and took the opportunity to begin instructing classes. She is now CPR certified and has been trained by a certified stroller fitness instructor. She has also done extensive research on fitness and healthy living. Don't miss out on Nikki's great workouts!
