Elena Sinitsyn
Elena has an extensive experience in Physical Fitness. Her interest in it has started in 1990 when she became a competitive athlete in Ukraine. When she moved to New York she became a group fitness instructor and taught many types of classes including toning and conditioning, kick boxing, step, Hi/Low aerobics, and African Dance, to mention a few. Soon thereafter she got certified as a Personal Trainer. Being a Personal Trainer she has worked with geriatric population, clients suffering from multiple sclerosis, various spinal and other musculoskeletal pathologies, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, hip replacement, mild form of autism and cerebral palsy. For the last year and a half she has been working as an IPL assistant, and is going through training to become an instructor.
Her work with children was started when she taught swimming at Queens College in 2000. She was teaching swimming lessons to groups and to individuals. Currently her work with the little ones in water is built upon the concept of role playing, and the main focus is on the correct movement stereotype. The water is used as an assisting medium. Pathologies include mild autism, ADD, and various postural imbalances.
During the summer of 2011 she has partaken in Hand-Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy study at The Center for Cerebral Palsy Research at Columbia University as an interventionist. The intervention was with hemiplegic children between the ages of 7-14 years.
