About Jill Rooks:
Jill Ruth Rooks: A New Jersey native, and one of four kids, Jill’s family moved to CA as she entered high school, where her competitive swimming and water polo passion began. She attended UCSB and completed a degree in Communication Studies. Interested in fitness from an early age, having attended Nautilus Gyms of the ’70s and ’80s with her mom, Jill has since listened to her calling to create a place where people could experience fitness and understand health in an accepting and positive culture. The Energy Lab, a core fitness playground and training studio, is the result of her passion.
Jill’s two kids have grown through her evolution in fitness. She began teaching while pregnant with her son. Having taught at several big gyms and then taking on Group Exercise Coordinator’s role, her two kids got to know the kids’ clubs well.
She can be contacted on IG at @jillruthrooks or website at https://energylabfitness.com/
