Tracy Anderson: A true pioneer in the world of health and fitness
In the world of fitness and movement, Tracy Anderson has been helping people change their lives for more than two decades. It’s a path she never envisioned but one she feels she was meant to follow.
Immersed in the world of dance from a young age (her mom has owned a ballet school for over 40 years), Tracy moved to New York at the age of 18 to follow her dream of becoming a professional ballerina. Once there, she was faced with a harsh reality as she struggled with her weight. While she possessed the talent, Tracy was told she did not have the body for dance.
“I had a personal weighted disappointment that the dream I had carved for myself—my personal goal—was not going to be possible because of something I could not help,” Tracy recalls.
At no point did anyone within the industry, one heavily focused on body image, share with Tracy a healthy way to achieve the results they required.While she felt lost, Tracy remained focused on the other areas of her life that brought her joy.
“I’m proud that I kept a personal curiosity and limitless attitude about myself,” she explains.”... to read the full cover story purchase the full issue here!
