Lia Thibault, Certified PraiseMoves Instructor

Lia Thibault shares that she is a daughter of the Most High King, a wife of 24 years, a mother of 3 teenage boys, and works part-time as a Certified Group Exercise Leader (14 years), Personal Fitness Trainer (4 years), and Menopause Fitness Specialist (1 year).

"The most exciting adventure has been with PraiseMoves, having become a CPI in 2012," Lia says.

“PraiseMoves has been a tremendous blessing to me. It provides a wonderful opportunity to gather with Christians from various denominations. My participants have been attending PraiseMoves for several years, and they love PraiseMoves so much.

"Plus, proclaiming scripture aloud helps us all memorize verses that we can recall and speak into our lives.

"PraiseMoves is with us wherever we go," Lia proclaimed. Amen!!!

Lia shared that she is honoured and humbled to lead a workshop at this conference! And we are THRILLED to have her with us and present for us at this year's Conference, too!
