Health and movement have long been important to Cathy.
In the 1980's, Cathy earned an instructor-level rank in the martial art of Lung Gung Fa Kung Fu, the "Dragon Forever Learning."
She is proud of achieving that Kung Fu ranking, as it required completing a 17-mile survival run in addition to the traditional testing on forms.
She taught Kung Fu classes and was also an instructor with Jackie Sorenson's Aerobic Dancing program when she lived in southern California.
Cathy holds B.S. and M.A. degrees in Secondary Education, and she taught high school English and Remedial Reading in the public school system for many years.
