“I was going to the gym and basically was interested in, and wanted to be involved in, the fitness industry. I wanted to combine that with making a transactional website.”

“I started lots of other businesses I think seven other businesses that failed. There were websites selling license plates, iPhone, apps, lots of different things.”

“From the point of view of the athletes we work with, we want to create a real, strong team that speaks to our values. And we work with them for a long, sustained period of time.”

“A runner must run with dreams in his heart, not money in his pocket.”

“In other fitness pursuits, you may have learned to go through the motions first and perfect your form second. In Pilates, it's the other way around. You learn to control your abs first and then proceed through a series of more progressive movements. At all times, you should feel in control of your body.”

“It's been a long road back to health and fitness for me. I am just glad to have been given the opportunity to do what I love most.”
