San Ramon, CA Hi - My name is Riana. I'm a certified fitness instructor. I hold certification with AFAA, BOSU, Schwinn Cycling, Stott Pilates, and Powder Blue Production (you know it as Turbo Jam). I was born in Honolulu, HI, but moved within weeks to California. I was raised in Marin County; home of "Hot tubs, and peacock feathers", just kidding.

I hold certification with AFAA, BOSU, Schwinn Cycling, Stott Pilates, and Powder Blue Production (you know it as Turbo Jam). I was born in Honolulu, HI, but moved within weeks to California. I was raised in Marin County; home of "Hot tubs, and peacock feathers", just kidding. Marin is a great place to grow up with many different cultural influences. It was in the early 80's when my love affair with fitness began. During junior high and high school I attended "Jazzercise" regularly with my mom. I became hooked on aerobics and could be found in the front row of any class.
In 1991 I married my high school sweetheart. In the fall of 1992 we welcomed our first and only child. After the birth of my daughter my weight cycled up and down depending on my activity level. Like many of you, I was happiest when I looked and felt my best. As a new mom I struggled to balance work, family and exercise.
In 2001 my 10 year marriage came to an end. I found myself a single mom trying to fill a void in my life and in need of more money. I found both at the gym. I turned my love of aerobics into a career. I am nationally cerified with AFAA. Soon my income from teaching class was coming close to my income from part-time accounting jobs, and I was in love. Now, remarried, 2 thriving careers, and a daughter growing up to be a beautiful woman, you'd think I had it all. But, something was missing.
Sure I was helping people feel good an hour at time, but that wasn't enough. What about people without gym memberships? I wanted everyone to know how good it feels to reach thei health and fitness goals. That's where Beach Body entered the picture. The at home workout videos at Beach Body are innovative, fun, and motivating. The health products give you the extra energy and nutritional balance you can't get from a gym membership. With these tools and your commitment I know I can help thousands more reach their goals now.

My transformation began one afternoon watching television. I was hypnotized by an infomercial starring Kathy Smith. I purchased her video and began working out at home. It would still be several years before I became an instructor.
In 2002 when I became a certified aerobics instructor I spent much of my hard earned money on continuing education. I have attended numerous world conventions to obtain the skills and certifications I hold. I currently teach classes 6 days a week at 24hour Fitness, ClubSport, and Bally Total Fitness. I continue to take courses in fitness and nutrition, so that I can bring the most current information to my students.
Not to long ago I was again mesmerized by an infomercial; this time starring Tony Horton. I purchased the P90X and P90X+ videos and was amazed by the results. Even though I was in great shape to begin with I could still see results. The ever elusive 6-pack was starting to show, I went from a size 4 to a size 0. People were telling me how "ripped" I looked. In January of this year I had my body fat tested and pleased to find out it was in the "athlete" category.
