Leading the way with Dreanna Wanzo | Personal Trainer | Norcross, Ga
Posted on June 12 2019
What’s inspired you to enter into the world of health & fitness? What’s your story?
I have been small my whole life! Being insecure in my body pushed to want to be the best version of myself. Not just physically but mentally as well. Before I found Yoga I was mentally unstable and not in control of my emotions.
What’s Your Training Style?
My training style varies. I teach to large groups but for those looking to dive deeper into their practice I give one on one sessions. I am versatile the way that I teach but my primary style is Power Vinyasa.
What are some of the barriers (if any) that you face as an African-American in the fitness community? How do you overcome them?
Getting more people of color to focus on their health and fitness. There is a disconnect in some communities where people just don’t see the value of self care through fitness.
Do the best you can, but be sure to give 120%
What’s your primary vision and mission as a trainer? How does this translate in your work with current or potential clients?
My goal as a yoga instructor is to give my students the tools to be successful and comfortable enough to practice on their own so that it becomes a lifestyle and not a fad.
What impact do you desire to make in your community?
My goal is to get more brown people into yoga, starting with young kids and teenagers.
Where do you see your business in the next 5-10 years?
Reaching over 300,000 people yearly. Offering affordable online subscriptions to yoga and other forms of movement. Have the company in schools across America teaching children about yoga and the importance of staying fit.
Where can people best reach you and learn more about the impact you’re making in your business?
My instagram handle is the best way for people to see current events and classes.
