I'm Tanya!
MY MISSION
My passion is helping women achieve lives beyond their wildest dreams! As a women’s life coach, I am giving back my 50+ years of experience, triumphs, and tough lessons. Women in our 50’s like us have so much wisdom and power. But we’ve been told that we lose shine as we age — that we should do anything we can to “turn back the clock.” I’m here to flip the script on that because this is actually the most powerful time in our lives. THIS is our time to shine bright, make bold moves, and get excited about our dreams. Your passions ignite my passion!
I’ve always had big dreams and put my heart and Soul into them. I danced to my own drummer, forgoing college and leaving my home in New Jersey to pursue my passion for dance. That led me to New York City and traveling and performing around the world.
MY STORY
In my 20’s, I found myself struggling with anxiety, feeling lost in a young marriage, and facing many more of life’s biggest challenges. I started looking outside myself to fill the whole in my Soul. After years of pain and struggles, I came back to myself and transformed my life through spiritual principles, meditation, and prayer.
From this place, I was guided back to my first loves — dance and movement. That led me to meeting my amazing business partner Jennifer Maanavi, and together we co-founded the multimillion dollar worldwide company Physique 57 , which pioneered the barre method and the boutique fitness space. We built a company from the ground up, which became a fitness phenomenon. I have been honored to train celebrities, appear in national media, write a book, and most importantly, transform bodies and lives for almost 30 years.
As a whole, confident, fully self supporting woman, I magnetized my incredible husband into my life when I was 40, and now we have beautiful 10-year-old twins. But I was just getting started…
Right before I turned 50, I had this deep intuition that there was something more out there for me and I was ready for my next act. I moved with my family from NYC to Atlanta, took control of my wellness and nutrition, lost 10 pounds healthfully, and returned to the spiritual principles that nourish me. Most importantly, I earned my life coaching certification with Coach Training Alliance from the International Coaching Federation.
Now I am pouring all my learnings — from the triumphs to the challenges — into helping you begin your next act. I know you have the power to reimagine, reinvent, and recreate your life because I did it, too!
