At 5 feet 4 inches and 120 pounds, Denise has been named America's favorite fitness expert. She gets the energy to tackle challenges and achieve her success from the gratification of knowing she makes a difference in people's lives and inspires them to feel better about themselves.

Born on February 13, 1957, Denise grew up in San Pedro, California. She started gymnastics at the age of 12 and earned an athletic scholarship to the University of Arizona, graduating in 1979 with a specialized degree in exercise physiology. She began teaching aerobic exercise classes in the Los Angeles area, earning her own local television program two years later. In 1983, Denise married Jeff Austin, a sports attorney and brother of tennis champ Tracy Austin.

In 2002, President Bush appointed Denise Austin as a member of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, an organization that strives to promote, encourage, and motivate Americans of all ages to become physically active and participate in sports. Denise is especially excited about the council's special emphasis on programs to help the nation's youth lay the foundation for active and fit lives. This momentous opportunity to represent the President in getting American adults and children fit and healthy is a tremendous honor for Denise. So far she has visited schools in 10 different states, and her goal is to visit and work with the youth of every state in America.

A dynamo of energy in a size 5, Denise Austin is a true motivator. She has become a veritable fitness empire, complete with books, shows, magazine columns, videos, and DVDs, as well as her own line of workout equipment, a signature shoe, bodywear by Danskin, and a skincare line. But Denise believes her greatest achievement yet is being mom to her two daughters, Kelly and Katie, who are now 13 and 10 years old, respectively. "I celebrate my career," Denise says, "but my family is my biggest joy in life."
