THE ORIGIN OF “DANCEHALL FIT-GET YOUR SEXY BACK”
In 2019 Chinyere experienced a deeply challenging personal trial. After surviving a broken relationship, she found herself alone, supporting two toddler sons, shockingly homeless and forced to live in her fitness studio. Chinyere fought and conquered depression by dancing to spirited, invigorating native, cultural Caribbean music taught by her family and friends when she was a teen. She was able to relieve stress, lift her spirits and experience joy again. Caribbean dance and music reinforced her love of life, self-identity, and purpose. After receiving Dancehall, Reggae, Soca and Calypso music from her DJ friend Dondy, Chinyere danced daily. Increasing numbers of friends began to join her. They were inspired, sweating, and having more fun than they had in years! Dance was inevitably added to her fitness program; female clients loved it! It was fun – a lighter challenge to complement fitness goals.
“DANCEHALL FIT- Get Your Sexy Back” was born in the Fall of 2019 at her studio and attracted many who wanted to burn calories and keep fit while having fun! Because of Covid, clients began to request in-home training in 2020 and online classes were offered. Chinyere’s goal has always been to inspire the love of lifetime practices of health, exercise, dance, and nutrition. “DANCEHALL FIT- Get Your Sexy Back” is beautifully designed to enrich a global audience, both online and in person.
