Natalie Spencer is a proud member of the Ascend community, where she blends her extensive background in dance and fitness to support clients in reaching their goals. She has been dancing since the age of eight and teaching for over 25 years, with experience in jazz, hip hop, lyrical, tap, stage, and heels dance.

In 2007, Natalie began her journey in health and wellness at the YMCA, where her passion for fitness ignited. She soon earned certifications in Individual Conditioning & Weight Training, Group Fitness, and Older Adult Group Fitness—areas she continues to pour her heart into today. Nothing motivates her more than empowering older adults to improve their mobility, gain confidence, and actively take charge of their wellness journey.

Natalie also owns Spencer Studios, an adult dance studio she opened in 2015. Her goal was to create a safe, non-judgmental space where everyone could be themselves and find joy through dance.

At Ascend, Natalie is inspired by the uplifting environment and the incredible community of members who cheer each other on. She believes that genuine support and positivity can help anyone become the best version of themselves, and she feels fortunate to play a part in that transformation.
