Meet Desi Bartlett of Mothers Into Living Fit in Marina del Rey
Today we’d like to introduce you to Desi Bartlett.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I am originally from Chicago and have 2 degrees in health and fitness, my bachelor’s in kinesiology, and my master’s degree in corporate fitness. Additionally, I have over 10 certifications in Yoga, Group Fitness, Personal Training, Pre and Post Natal Yoga, you name it! I certify other instructors and am especially passionate about helping mothers throughout their pregnancies and beyond by empowering them through the joy of movement.
During my first pregnancy, I found that I could not find a class that felt like the right fit. The first prenatal yoga class that I attended was so gentle that we only practiced 3 poses in 90 minutes. I felt my mind racing and was anything but relaxed. The next class that I attended was more challenging, but the instructor never said the word “baby.” I knew that there was a better way and that with so many years of education in health and fitness, I could design a program for moms. Today, I have 10 DVD’s on the market, with 2 pre and post natal yoga titles, as well as pre and post natal yoga videos on Beachbody on Demand. I am also writing a book on pre and post natal yoga and fitness, so as you can see, this is not just my job, this is my calling.
