Anna-Rita Sloss! Creator of HOT HULA fitness® and HOT FUSION® Born to Western Samoans living in Auckland, New Zealand, I grew up in a Fa'a Samoan (traditional) family that values family life, religion, food, Polynesian culture and athletics. I grew up very athletic playing netball and running track. Married in 1990, I moved to the United States living in California and New York. After having two children, born in 1993 and 1996, continual travel and the lack of exercise, I gained weight with my heaviest at 210 lbs. I decided to regain my self-confidence and return into the gym to take my life back. Returning to the gym, and with help from my mentor, Chalene Johnson, creator of Turbo Kick, I lost 75 pounds and totally changed my life. I made a commitment to live a healthier lifestyle. Recognizing the need to create a unique program that represented my culture, I created HOT HULA fitness®, a Polynesian based workout in 2009. I choreographed different movements from the Islands of the Pacific into a dance routine where the actual choreography was broken down to the Polynesian drumbeats. Incorporating my fitness background and roots, this non-stop one hour class became an instant hit! HOT HULA fitness® has been featured on several television shows including “America's Next Top Model”. I am so proud of HOT HULA fitness® and the positive change it has made on so many individual’s lives. In 2011, I developed HOT FUSION®. This “OL'SKOOL GROOVES with NEW'SKOOL Moves” class is a combination of New Skool Dance (The Troupe, Tootsie Roll) and resistance training, set to Ol’Skool tunes. HOT FUSION® fuses cardio and sculpting, taking your fitness to a whole new level, while having fun, enjoying music and feeling like a confident dancer. #islandgirlsrock #polyfit #polyswag #polymovement #hothula #islandgirl #healthtipsaturday #active #healthy #lifestyle #dance #fitness
