As the driving force behind Women’s Fitness Education, Dani understands the effects of fitness and fitness culture on women as well as anyone. When JP discovered she had also competed in stage competitions in the past, he felt compelled to have the conversation no one seems to be having – are they good for you? Whilst this is a very much an ‘opinion piece’ and charts Dani’s journey into, and out of, competitions, and beyond, it does bring some important issues into the spotlight. And just as importantly, how can we support the mental and emotional ‘training’ required to get on stage, and handle the aftermath, alongside the incredible physical dedication of the sport.

Danielle Mondo is a passionate fitness professional with over 10 years of industry experience. Her journey began with a love of training that led her to compete in bodybuilding, earning the title of INBA Fitness Model Overall Winner in 2014. Inspired by her own transformation, Danielle became a personal trainer and spent a decade helping women build strength and confidence. Today, as the Student Success Manager and Educator at Women’s Fitness Education, she supports and empowers future female personal trainers through expert guidance, encouragement, and industry insight.
