Listen in as Christine and Brian hash out the details and hear the story rom an absolutely crazy day! Marathons are hard enough!

Let the Healing Begin!!!!

Alana Sanders - Get Pulsed/Social Media Expert - Episode 30

“If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere,
you better wake up and pay attention.”

"If You Wanna Be Somebody" As sung by “Get Pulsed” creator Alana Sanders on Episode 30!  

Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast
Episode 30 with Guest – Alana Sanders – Creator of “Get Pulsed”/Social Media Expert/Fitness Presenter

In Episode 30, the Two Fit Crazies welcome Alana Sanders; creator of the nationally accredited dance fitness program Get Pulsed and Social Media expert. And yes, that’s right, we got her to sing for us. She is, after all, known as the “Singing Fitness Instructor”!

Alana gives us the lowdown on how she got her start in the fitness industry, her career as a college professor teaching marketing and the creation of Get Pulsed, an innovative dance fitness program that incorporates the use of weights into the dance routines to help tone while in a fun cardio setting. It’s a brand that she says “…will assist with your health and get you to where you need to be, but you’re going to have fun doing it!” 

A teacher at heart, Alana has dedicated herself to helping and educating people in every aspect of the fitness industry. From teaching her program as an instructor, to Get Pulsed trainer certification, to teaching fitness professionals how to be successful through the all-important social medias, Alana is involved in many layers of the fitness industry. She, literally, wrote the first Social Media college textbook published by Pearson Education released in 2011 and continues to instruct at SCW Mania conventions throughout the country. Of course, the hosts took the opportunity to steal some social media advice! Thanks for sharing Alana! 

And get this! In addition to being the creator of Get Pulsed and an expert on Social Media, Alana was also the winner of the 2016 SCW Fitness Idol competition and is up for IDEA Fitness Presenter of the Year! Yes folks, She’s a Rock Star!!! 

The fitness industry is lucky to have a gem like Alana and we were so glad to have her on the #Podcast. Please listen as Christine and Brian discuss all of this and more with the great, Alana Sanders! 

Enjoy!
