Lauren Hargraves

Lauren's journey with ADF began as a leap of faith—stepping into our studio without any prior dance fitness experience. Yet, from that first class, she was captivated by the vibrant community, the infectious energy, and the tangible results. Since then, she's been an unwavering advocate for ADF, diving headfirst into our membership program and cheering us on every step of the way.

Her commitment to our mission didn't stop there. Lauren has played a pivotal role on our management team for several years, and now, as our lead HIIT instructor, she continues to inspire and empower others on their fitness journey.

Beyond the studio, Lauren's life is a colorful tapestry woven with love, family, and a zest for adventure. She is married to her college sweetheart, Eric, with whom she has three wonderful children. Hailing from Pennsylvania, Lauren's soul thrives in the great outdoors, where she finds solace and connection amidst nature's wonders, often sharing these adventures with loved ones.

Her faith and compassion shine brightly through her joyful personality, reflecting her deep love for Jesus and others. A lifelong learner, Lauren's curiosity knows no bounds, constantly seeking out new hobbies to fuel her creativity. From running her own embroidery business to indulging in thrifting and sustainable shopping, and even trying her hand at interior design between dance sessions at ADF, Lauren's passion for exploration knows no bounds. And if that wasn't impressive enough, she recently ventured into the world of charcuterie, adding yet another feather to her cap. So, the next time you're hosting an event, be sure to check out her delectable creations!

In Lauren, ADF has found not just an instructor, but a true embodiment of our values—a beacon of positivity, creativity, and boundless energy.
