EP3 - Mara Benner, "Whole Person" Integrative Health

Mali Phonpadith interviews Laurent Amzallag, Fitness Expert, Speaker, Entrepreneur, and TV Personality. 

Born by the beaches of Casablanca, Laurent grew up with the Mediterranean lifestyle infused with a time-immaterial mentality: the best things in life take time to nurture —food, wine, friendships. There are no short cuts, which is perfectly fine because the journey is just as enjoyable as the destination. Every moment counts, every moment is a celebration, so make the most out of the moment you’re you are living in. When that moment is over, make the most out of the next one. This is how Laurent was raised and what he brings to his fitness program!

For the past 15 years, Laurent has been Washington DC’s well sought after fitness expert. He was called to participate in Oprah’s “Live Your Best Life” tour and has been featured in ELLE Magazine along with numerous television and radio programs.

As the architect behind NRGY!15TM, he created this high intensity workout based on 15 signature moves choreographed to energetic music.
