Every Wednesday (from 7pm-8pm) and Sunday (from 9:30-10:45) we will be getting back to basics with Juliet Kaska! Shes gonna rock your world... all levels welcome!!! See you there... A litle more about hte FABULOUS Ms. Kaska!... Juliet Kaska is one of the country’s leading fitness experts, celebrity trainers, and fitness entrepreneurs. In 2005, she opened Emerson Hall Fitness (EHF) in West Hollywood, California, which quickly became the most sought after boutique gym in the Los Angeles area. She then went on to launched her brand JK Zen Fitness, with partnerships throughout Los Angeles. In January 2009, she opened her most exclusive location at Evo-South in downtown Los Angeles; Juliet Kaska’s Zen Fitness sits 24 floors above of the city with sweeping views of the surrounding area. In 2010 she then went on to open a private Pilates studio on the famous Robertson Boulevard directly across from the celebrity haven, The Ivy Restaurant. Juliet is the creator of some of Hollywood’s favorite fitness programs including the Bombshell Bride, Picture Perfect, Packin’ Lite, and the Executive’s Workout -- custom programs tailored to fit each client’s individual needs. The upscale and discreet location of Juliet’s fitness centers have attracted a wide variety of Hollywood "types," from Robert Downey, Jr. to Matt Damon, and Madonna. Juliet's personal list of clients has included Sting & Trudie Styler, Pink, Kate Walsh, Mischa Barton, Gerard Butler, Rachael Leigh Cook, Stacy Keibler, Maureen McCormick, Wolfgang Puck, and music mogul Benny Medina. Juliet has consulted for and appeared on programs such as Good Morning America, Dr. Phil, Good Day LA, Entertainment Tonight, E! News, and Access Hollywood, and has been featured as an expert in numerous publications including Vogue, Shape, W, Self, Us Weekly, Los Angeles Magazine, and Fitness RX. She appears regularly on Extra as their on-camera fitness expert. Most recently, Juliet wrapped production on a series of videos showcasing her Red Carpet Ready Workouts in partnership with Exercise TV, (www.exercisetv.tv). Concurrently, she co-hosted the OK! Magazine Body & Soul event. In the Fall of 2008, Juliet and co-author Mark Yoblanovich published their first book, “The ABC’s of Happiness: Not for Children.” Which became a #1 Best Seller on Amazon.com. In October 2008, Juliet was honored by being asked to be a Lululemon Athletica ambassador. She was one of a few select experts appointed as a fitness and wellness panelist at the 2007 Women in Leadership Conference. Juliet presently sits on the advisory boards of both Go Fit and Chobani Greek Yogurt. Growing up in Pennsylvania, Juliet was always active, enjoying outdoor activities like camping, rock climbing, and hiking, as well as more classical studies such as ballet. At age 13, she was accepted into the Shore Ballet Company, an extension of London’s Royal Academy. With her extensive dance background, it was a natural fit for Juliet to become certified in Pilates, a discipline focused on core strength, elongation, and grace. When she moved to Los Angeles, she became a dual-certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and the American Council on Exercise; shortly thereafter she became a certified Pilates instructor. Upon opening her first location in 2005, Juliet immediately instituted the Team Training Method, a system which shifts the focus away from the trainer, discouraging attitudes and bravado, and giving clients the benefit of working with trainers of different styles and strengths. Trainers work together to get the client the results they want, encouraging longevity in a fitness program, conquering fitness plateaus, and promoting harmony in the gym. This Zen-fitness vision makes Juliet’s fitness centers stand out in body-centric LA, where gyms abound and it’s hard to tell one from another. Juliet prides herself on maintaining a welcoming, homey atmosphere in her facilities, a place in which trainers and clients are always comfortable, friendly and familiar, and feel like part of a fitness family. As Juliet’s client body grows, so does her stellar reputation as a trainer and a leader in the fitness community. And like a good leader, she practices what she preaches, continually challenging herself, learning new trends, and expanding her knowledge of fitness. Juliet honors her body and mind every day through exercise, and encourages others to do the same.
