About Britt
@bsmartbasketball
bsmartbasketball.com
Brittany encourages people to see health and fitness as a way of living, not as a fad or diet. She knows that by taking continuous care of your body and mind, you can add quality years to life by making it more enjoyable and help with the emotional side.  Brittany has been able to stay motivated and be her best by being surrounded by positive relationships  and supportive networks.

She is often described by others as someone who is constantly looking for ways to better herself, and others.  This “X” factor and drive has led to personal success, on and off the court.

Brittany lives by the mantra: “Health is wealth.”
