Dawn Scott

I’m from Lawrenceburg, Kentucky but I have been in Lexington for 35 years.

What do you enjoy doing outside of CY?

My favorite thing to do is hang out with my family.  We are business partners in 3 local restaurants and I am also a Realtor, so I work most of the time, really. 

What do you enjoy most about CY?

Watching people progress in their fitness journey. It brings me so much joy to hear stories and see people keep coming to class who previously hated working out or had never worked out before because they were intimidated.  I love that we offer a place for all fitness levels, all shapes, all sizes and all interests.

What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?

It’s not earth shattering, but “Make the most of every moment, hug your people and tell them you love them every chance you get. Life is short and we never know how much time we have to enjoy our time together.”

What is something no one would ever guess about you? 

I have a Masters Degree in Social Work and I worked mainly with substance abuse and domestic violence clients right out of graduate school. After that, I was a Pharmaceutical Rep for 17 years before opening my own fitness studio in 2012.
