Vivian Thurman

With a strong background in Dance (Jazz, ballet, pro-cheerleading) and Musical Theatre (National tours, theme parks, Las Vegas-style and cruiseship), Vivian can creatively turn a simple step into a fun and energetic class!  Named "Fitness Diva" 2005 by Aerobics Extravaganza Convention, and as Fitness Expert Spokesperson interviewed by NBC4, Discovery Health Channel and the Washington Post, Vivian is widely recognized as the 'go-to person' in Washington, DC.  Her performance experiences and original choreography have transferred beautifully to 5 fitness videos, used as 'in-house training' for Bally Total Fitness instructors nationwide. The work week is a combination of dance and step aerobics and Pilates instruction, to both club members and to fitness professionals.  On many weekends, Vivian's roll as Pilates Master Trainer and Certification Specialist takes her out of town as she provides Continuing Education Credits to teachers.  Any free time is spent in performing arts theatres searching for the next dance-inspired creation to add along side "Cardio Swing & Jive", "Viv a la 'Vegas", "The Art of Stripography" and "Step Latin Soulsa".  See you in class!
