Interview with Andrea Everingham, owner
Q: How did you get involved in this business?
:At one point in my life, I was overweight, tired and had no energy. A friend introduced me into a weight loss challenge. From there, I lost 50 pounds, quit smoking and decided I wanted to help others with their nutrition and fitness goals.
Q: What distinguishes you from other businesses in your category?
A: Piloxing is a unique fitness class that blends pilates and boxing moves for a fun workout. There are not very many active piloxing instructors in Colorado. I know what it is like to be out of shape and welcome anyone, young or old. I am also able to work with people not only for fitness but also nutrition. The martial arts studio that I operate out of has many other fitness options, as well.
Q: What do you like best about your line of work?
A: I absolutely love being able to help people with their fitness and wellness goals and change their lives.
Q: What is your business’ biggest challenge?
:Getting the word out about what I do to help people. I think because piloxing is not widely known, people are intimidated by the name until they take their first class.
Q: Something people might be surprised to learn about you or your business:
:I run weight loss and body transformation challenges, as well. Since Oct. 2013, participants in the last 17 challenges have lost more than 960 pounds. I also do private fitness training for sports teams and groups and organize group hikes.
