DR. STACY BERMAN
CO-HOST
Many people got to know Stacy Berman by getting their asses handed to them at one of her Stacy’s Bootcamp sessions in Central Park. Not only did they get some of the most intense workouts of their lives, but they also got to hear Stacy’s thoughts on health, wellness, and balance. But it was probably her infectious laugh (and usually at least one remark about how everyone is going to be able to get naked in a moment’s notice) that kept the crowds coming back for more. Stacy created The System by Stacy ™ to help herself, her clients, and the world at large achieve a higher level of health and fitness.
Stacy majored in Health Education and Psychology and became a certified personal trainer after graduation. In 2000 Stacy was named one of the top 10 trainers of the year, became a certified nutrition specialist, and started studying consciousness and meditation with Dr. Baskaran Pillai, a world-renowned guru whose education is geared towards enhancing human intelligence and positively transforming every aspect of life. In 2015 she received a master degree in natural medicine and is on track for her Ph.D in natural medicine.
It might seem odd that this experienced shaman, Reiki Master and Ph.D candidate has also appeared on The Bobby Flay Show and The Doctors, but that is the kind of well-rounded, modern woman Stacy is.nd don’t worry, she’s just as concerned with how everyone looks naked as she ever was.
