CONFESSIONS OF AN AEROBICS INSTRUCTOR Comes to Melbourne, Nov. 9
2016: active wear is outerwear and Crossfit is common speak. Instagram fitness celebrities have cult followings. And as we follow the glamour and #blessed lives of these role models, we fight off the fads and phenomena about everything from caffeine to cartwheels. We don't need thigh gaps. We don't need to tone up. We need the truth.
Joana Simmons (aka Joy) is taking the lies out of Lycra with her brand new show: Airing her workout and work stories as an aerobics instructor and exercising all sorts of demons from body image to active wear; gym, Jim and GIN.
Featuring a high-powered soundtrack of pop and rock staples, original songs (written by Jamie Burgess- Butch Masters/ Impromptunes) and honest anecdotes, Confessions of an Aerobics Instructor is pure endorphin-inducing entertainment. Joana's background in comedy makes her a non-conventional and at times nonsensical instructor and this combined with her tales of what REALLY happens in the fitness industry will not only get your heart pumping, it will touch it too.
Joana Simmons first started aerobics with her mum in the church hall when she was still in primary school, and started teaching classes when she was 17. Since then, she has instructed a range of programs at gyms all across Melbourne. She has also performed in a variety of festivals across a range of genres including; Melbourne International Comedy Festival, New Zealand Fringe Festival, Melbourne Fringe Festival (Putting the G'Day in Cabaret), The Village Festival and Falls Festival. She was a semi-finalist with "Miss Friby (and the Fribbles)" on Australia's Got Talent.
Prepare to 'feel the burn' and enjoy a strong ab workout from deep belly laughs when sweaty secrets are laid out to dry. The weight is over.
