When I Started:
Aug, 1997
How I Started:
I've been dancing since I was 7 years old and joined a nationally ranked collegiate team in 1997. That's when my coach destroyed any former ideas of a skinny, lean dancer and had us running stadium stairs and weight training. The first few years were hard but I have been addicted ever since!
Why I Love It:
I love the energy it gives me! I love the look of a strong body to compliment a strong mind!
How I Stay Motivated:
I think of what it feels like to not be healthy. I deal with deconditioned people everyday who complain of being tired, depressed and unmotivated. They take multiple prescriptions from doctors and spend thousands on therapists, they should try hopping on a treadmill or pushing out a few sets. I want to live a long and healthy life with as little medication in it as possible. Working out is cheaper than therapy!
Got the newest "balance" shoes from Reebok... I'm 2.5 hours in and my legs are tired! It certainly won't replace lunges and step ups but every little bit helps right?
