Welcome to another enlightening episode of the ANEW Body Insight Podcast, hosted by Dr. Supatra Tovar and Chantal Donnelly. In this episode, we are thrilled to have Tracey Mallett, a world-renowned fitness and wellness expert, joining us at City Club Los Angeles. Tracey's journey from a passionate dancer in the UK to a global fitness icon is both inspiring and transformative.

Tracey Mallett's journey began in the Midlands of the UK. At 16, she attended a theatre arts school, where her passion for dance transitioned into fitness. Her early exposure to dance conditioning and Pilates, under the guidance of a ballet teacher and Lottie Burke instructor, laid the foundation for her innovative career in fitness.

Tracey offers invaluable fitness advice during the podcast, stressing the importance of walking. She highlights how walking is often underestimated as a form of exercise, yet it is low-impact, burns calories, and promotes overall health. Tracey's own routine includes daily walks with her four dogs, demonstrating how this simple activity can make a significant difference.

Another key piece of advice Tracey shares is the importance of strength training. Although she had intermittently engaged in weight training throughout her life, she now emphasizes its consistency. Strength training, she explains, is crucial for maintaining muscle mass, boosting metabolism, and enhancing overall strength and empowerment.

Tracey's innovative approach to fitness is evident in her Pilates Barre On Demand app. This app offers a variety of fusion fitness workouts with new videos added weekly, making Tracey's expertise accessible to a global audience. Whether you're a longtime follower or new to her workouts, Pilates Barre On Demand provides an excellent platform to experience Tracey's dynamic and effective fitness routines.

Tracey shares an empowering story about meeting a fan in Rome who had been using her app since the COVID-19 pandemic. This fan's journey from discovering Tracey's workouts online to attending a barre workshop in person underscores the profound impact Tracey has on her followers' lives. Such connections, Tracey believes, are what make the fitness industry truly rewarding.

Tracey's success is also attributed to her proactive and innovative mindset. She never wrote a business plan but always followed her instincts, creating solutions needed in the fitness industry. Her emphasis on treating clients as equals and her dedication to mentoring up-and-coming instructors highlight her commitment to fostering a supportive and collaborative fitness community.

For those aspiring to start their fitness journey, Tracey's advice is simple: just move. She encourages finding an activity you enjoy and seeking guidance from qualified professionals. Tracey also acknowledges the challenge of navigating the fitness industry amidst social media influences but emphasizes the importance of choosing educated and experienced trainers.
