about me

I’ve been involved in all aspects of the Health and Fitness industry for over 35 years: training, teaching, coaching, managing, sales, radio, television, owner of Kickbox Xtreme, event planning, racing, practicing, inspiring, and always evolving!

However, I did not grow up with healthy eating or exercise habits and these habits carried over into my 20’s. I gained 90 lbs with my first pregnancy; I’m 5’ 1” by the way. It’s been a journey! I’ve learned, discovered and changed drastically since those days.

Now in my fifties, I go from fierce and focused to fatigued and forgetful, soulful to stressed, sweet to sassy, calm to crazed, and silly to serious. Sometimes all in one day! LOL. Life at 56…I’m still evolving. won’t you join me?

I’d love to connect and inspire the women (Yaya’s) in the world to thrive; nourish yourself, love yourself, humble yourself, heal yourself and make yourself a priority. Change, love and be joyful, strong, sexy, bright and beauty-full from the inside out.

Health is truly our greatest wealth.

Inspiring health & wellness with love & peace,

Sam
