Sleep is critical to me ... at least eight or nine hours a night. I start to slow down my body and my mind at least 30 minutes before I get into bed. I don't watch any disturbing or invigorating TV at night.

For my workout, I'm up at 4am. I say my prayers, count my blessings, and I work out right away. I just get it done. One day I'll tone - chest, back and shoulders - and the next day it's biceps and triceps. I also do 45 minutes of cardio every day. I do that before I even leave the house.

I'm a real paradox. Because I'm a very serious person, and I take my work very seriously. But I wrap it up in a court jester and a clown and make people laugh and make them feel good about themselves.

I was born with a crippled leg. I wore a corrective shoes since I was three years old and I still wear them.

I started my own class for people like me who can't find any place else to go.

I don't have a lot to offer one person. I have a lot to offer to a lot of people.

No tricks, gimmicks, special pills, special potions, special equipment. All it takes is desire and will.
