Angelique is a third generation native to Southern California.Healthy living, spiritual pursuits, holistic healing, and anything out of the ordinary have always been of interest to her.A performer at heart, she started dancing at the age of four, and throughout her life has studied different styles of dance.Angelique was first introduced to GYROTONIC®in early 2000 through a friend. In the beginning, she trained as a client a few times a week, because she wasn’t satisfied with the results she was getting at the gym.Physically and mentally, it just wasn’t gratifying!The exercises had such a positive effect on her posture, ability to manage stress, and the appearance of her body, that she decided to become a trainer herself.She attended rigorous training courses instructed by Master Trainer, Lisa Marie Goodwin, of LA Body Kinetics, in Culver City.For several months she worked as an apprentice in her own studio until receiving her certification through the inventor Julio Horvath in August of 2001.In May of 2003, she became certified in GYROKINESIS®, after studying with Master Trainer Juergen Bamberger.In July of 2003 she became an authorizedGYROTONIC®Pre-Trainer through the recommendation of Master Trainer Donna Place, of Peaceful Waves, in Long Beach.And in April of 2004 she attended Level II GYROTONIC® Teacher Training instructed by Julio Horvath. In July of 2009 Angelique attended a GYROTONIC® GOLF WORKSHOP, by Dave & Jeannie Rasmussen in Tiburon, CA at Marin Gyrotonic. Every year Angelique attends a review course for GYROTONIC® as well.
