Erika Barber talks with Kara & Mark Johnson, local fitness & movement legends, about an active lifestyle. This conversation is for those who grew up moving regularly and for those who have never seen themselves as athletic: What are the best motivators for consistent physical activity? How can a shift in self perception aid in recovery from injury? Is there a right way to think about the relationship between fitness & the way we look?
Kara Johnson is a co-owner and instructor at Level Up Cycle and Fitness in Newberg, OR.
Mark Johnson coaches high school basketball and teaches at Newberg High School.
Dr. Erika Barber teaches in George Fox University’s physician assistant program and holds board certification in internal medicine and geriatrics.
