Most of these reviews have been written by Janiss Garza, a professional journalist who has been writing about fitness since 1998. She earned a certification as a fitness trainer from ISSA in 2000, is a member of IDEA and to this day, takes Continuing Education Units to keep on top of the latest fitness information and trends. Janiss produced the yoga content for About.com in 2001, and went on to become editor-in-chief for All Spirit Fitness (www.allspiritfitness.com) in 2002. The exercise DVD review section of All Spirit Fitness became so successful that we decided to spin it off onto its own site, and resulting in Your Exercise DVDs. Janiss is currently Health and Fitness editor for Estylo magazine (www.estylo.com ).
While Janiss reviews most of the DVDs, she doesn’t review all of them. Occasionally she’ll want to run a review of a DVD that requires specific knowledge or experience (pre and post-natal workouts, for example). In that case, she has a writer who is well-versed in that area critique the workout, and she conforms it to the format of our website.
