Pam Peterson
Founder of Zing with Pam
Pam Peterson has enjoyed two successful careers simultaneously for 40 years:
Fitness Pro and Performing Artist.
FITNESS PRO PAM
Pam Peterson, founder of Zing With Pam, is a dynamic teacher who believes that exercise should be fun and healing.
Pam is an ACE-Certified Personal Fitness Trainer and Senior Fitness Specialist whose forte is leading individuals age 50+ to greater health and well-being. Known for her upbeat energy, Pam has taught exercise for 40 years as a personal trainer and group instructor.
Based in Chicago, Pam has worked one-on-one with many dedicated clients, some of whom she has trained for 30+ years. She has helped them look and feel their best through good times and challenging times such as medical conditions, surgery rehabs, and life crises. With a focus on total mind-body-spirit wholeness, Pam’s training incorporates strength, balance, flexibility, stamina and breathing.
Pam’s spirited fitness classes have been a hit in residential group settings and corporate venues including Center for Life & Learning, Leo Burnett, Self Magazine and Baxter Healthcare. In earlier years she taught classes in clubs including The Firm, Lehmann Sports and Jamnastics.
Pam founded Zing Singing Fitness in 2010. She has taught Zing classes at Chicago exercise and dance studios, and presented Zing interactive shows at national conferences for groups including National Realtors Association and National Association of Women Business Owners. In 2020, Pam rebranded Zing Singing Fitness as Zing-Along.
In 2020, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Pam successfully transferred her personal training clients and group classes to virtual sessions on Zoom! The response has been so enthusiastic that she plans to continue teaching fitness primarily online.

I love inspiring people to keep moving forward with joy and energy… and to meet the challenges of aging with good humor! I love teaching people how to refresh and transform through movement, song, laughter and community.
