Energy Unlimited on the Home Show (circa 1993?)

Laura used to have fund raisers for the UCLA men's gymnastics team. Yefim, the UCLA assistant coach, was one of her fitness instructors. David St. Pierre worked for her for a couple of years; after my last year of eligibility, I needed part-time work and by a strange act of fate, saw an ad of Laura's asking for gymnastics fitness instructors. So I began working with clients in her small fitness studio on Motor Ave. When that shut down, she moved her business over to Santa Monica Gymnastics Center, renting out the gym at the same time Richie Salas ran his Adult Gymnastics program. When Richie moved, we "inherited" some of his leftover clients, like Sarah Black and Cathleen Handler.

The following is a promotional stint we did on the Home Show. If I remember accurately, we arrived very early and did take after take after take after take. I was very muscle-fatigued by the time we actually started taping (as well as out of competitive shape) and got stuck on one of my handstand push-ups, just as the camera panned my way.
