Qualifications: Certified by ACE and AFAA. US National Aerobic Champion.
Personal History: In 1987, after winning the National Aerobic Championship, I graduated from the University of Texas and moved to Los Angeles. I began teaching at Karen Voight's studio. Since then, I've been involved in all aspects of fitness, including starring in 10 workout videos. I'm a vegetarian and avid two-man beach vollyball player.
Workout Philosophy: I've been working to bridge the gap between total crazy fitness and the relaxation that can come with exercise.
Success Story: During an event for abused children in Los Angeles, I was teaching funk moves to teenage boys. One boy was a 'natural,' so I pulled him aside and told him he was a great leader and dancer. I wanted him to perform for the crowd during the lunch break. But, he said he couldn't do it. I took him by the shoulders, looked him in the eye, and said, "You can do it; trust me." The words hit home and he performed very well.
