Marcia Berlin

Qualifications: I'm a published author and registered dietitian nutritionist with a professional dance background and deep roots in the Caribbean islands.

Personal History: I wanted a new workout video for myself. I was looking for a fun, effective, low impact dance workout video with a Caribbean flair. I couldn't find what I was looking for, so with a little help from my friends, I created it!

Workout Philosophy: My philosophy is that taking out the garbage is a chore. Paying bills is a chore. But getting fit is a treat. Exercise time is a time you take out of your day for your mind, body and spirit. Feel your muscles; be alone with your thoughts; escape the rat race; make yourself healthier; look better; feel stronger; and get ready to take on the world.

Success Story: I gave Fete Fix videos to a group of 25 health care professionals to try for six weeks. After the six weeks, I met with them for feedback. The comments were unanimous, " It was FUN and it really worked!"  Many of the woman reported steady weight loss since doing the workout. The group also agreed that before The Fete Fix they had trouble finding the motivation they needed to exercise. All of them felt that they were so busy taking care of everybody else that they rarely took time to take care of themselves. The Fete Fix was like taking a mini vacation right in their own homes that helped them get back to a happier and healthier place in their lives.
