Angel Stone CPT

Founder, http://www.eshebodycenter.com

Angel Stone is the Chief Executive Officer of Eshe Body Center. Her training philosophy stems from a lifetime of fitness and adventure. At the age of 6, she won her first foot race. That sprint across the playground started her running career and culminated in her first marathon (not a sprint). Motivated by that accomplishment, Angel went on to win a slot on the rowing team at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After graduation, she became an officer in the United States Army. It was there that her love for fitness reached its height. The military gave her a greater appreciation for life and taught her to live every day to the fullest.

A nationally certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor, Angel maintains a rigorous fitness regimen. In addition, Angel is an active member of the dance community. She has performed internationally and also danced with a popular hip hop company. If you look closely, Angel can still be seen dancing and teaching hip hop classes throughout Metro DC.
