How did you first get into the fitness world?

Simone De La Rue How did you first get into the fitness world?

I was first a classically trained ballerina and I was working on Broadway doing musicals. I worked with an actress who needed to look like a dancer, and so I spent three months with her training her in dance and my technique. By then end of that, I had such a great time and she then recommended me to other actor friends. So I actually fell into it by accident. But it was a good accident!

What is your history with Broadway?

I did shows in the West End, in Australia and here.  So I've done Cats, Fame, Grease, Happy Days, Phantom of the Opera, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Promises Promises, and I danced in the Oscars.

What was your favorite project to work on?

I loved working at the National Theater in London.  A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum was such a great cast. Cats will also always be my favorite because it was my very first show...I was 18! And I was the lead dancer, so it was my first big show as a lead.
