Staff Spotlight: Susanna from PCYC Beenleigh

Staff member Susanna says she’s like Peter Pan – a kid on the inside. And although she’s 100% Italian, she admits she’s not a fan of cheese!

I started at PCYC Logan in November 2022 as Rhythmic Gymnastics Coach. After a couple of months, I also started the role as Senior Leader for the Little n Active program. I worked as much as I could while pregnant, then my baby arrived!

After a year’s break, I started at PCYC Beenleigh in November 2024 as a Fitness Instructor, and later on I had the opportunity to be a Senior Leader again the for Little n Active program here at Beenleigh – so I am currently doing double roles!

I’ve always worked with my body as I was a professional dancer and through movement, I can express my personality better than words.

When I arrived in Australia in 2018, I wanted to study to improve my English, so I decided to go for the Fitness Industry to learn more about the body and the benefits of training.

I am currently doing the Activ8 8 Week Challenge, and I am super happy because I feel much better than I did a few months ago. Also, I am going for at least a 30 minute walk every day. My goal is to strengthen my upper body and see some biceps!

Fit & 50!! So much fun, people are lovely, and we became a family. It feels like I am not working at all! Just love it!
