Today we’d like to introduce you to Leslie Glazier-werner
Hi Leslie, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Ironically, my story starts at the “advanced” age of 71. A series of events have instilled a passion to put seniors like me center stage in a youth oriented culture.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Like anyone who makes it to my age, I’ve had health challenges like cancer and the paralysis of Guillian-Barre, However, here’s another irony I’ve discovered. Instead of that well deserved ticker tape parade for beating the odds and remaining productive at my age, I’ve encountered a decided effort to shove seniors like myself aside with the assumption that growth can only occur at a younger age.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
The events described earlier have motivated me to create my own fitness program celebrating seniors and their ability to maintain and improve their health no matter their age. I’ve taken 35 years of dance fitness experience-7 as an instructor- and my background as a National Academy of Sports Medicine Group Personal Training Specialist, to create.’my YouTube channel with a humorous take—Gray Gangster_Fitness.
We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
At my age, launching another business start-up inherently smacks of gambling on ripe bananas!
