Devain Cotton

Devain Cotton graduated from Southern University with a bachelor of general studies with a minor in social science and over 60 hours of educational courses.Prior to Athlos she worked at a head Start program for three years as a teacher of pre-k 4 , three and infant classes. Her top goal as an educator is to create learning opportunities for all students, motivate them and ALWAYS push them forward to do better and just to inspire students to love learning!

Although its hard to pick she says her best quality as an educator is, “I would have to say my best quality would be patience.” At Athlos she looks forward to teaching the movement breaks and how they are incorporated throughout the day to keep the students engaged and ready to learn and most importantly moving. 

When asked why she was drawn to the Athlos model she says, “I was drawn to Athlos because of the three pillars and how not only does Athlos focus on education but also teaches life lessons of health/wellness and performance traits that will carry with them for a lifetime!”
