Aptly named BYU Dance Major, Kaeli Dance, describes her involvement in her Winter 2021 internship as a health coach at the BYU Y Be Fit program below.
In her own words…
The Y Be Fit program (see infographic below) can be a lifesaver for BYU Dance majors because being a dancer is filled with stress surrounding food, comparison, and appearance. Our health program is individually catered to each person’s unique concerns.
You (as a client) can make your own goals and we support you with solid facts and the data from your entry tests. We want to help you learn and keep you accountable, not judge or demean.
The whole program is usually $125, but only $75 for students or $25 for staff! We are open to BYU students, faculty, adjunct, and staff.
One of my favorite parts of the program is the bod pod test. I got to see how much muscle vs. fat mass I have. Scales are often deceiving/discouraging because if you gain muscle, your weight will increase.
I am currently a student and using this job as my internship! Eventually I want to be a certified personal trainer and this is helping me on my journey there!
Other BYU dancers can get in on this, too! At the end of every semester there are applications to be a health coach for the upcoming semester.
