Joni Hyde, Biography

Born and raised in St. Petersburg, Florida, Joni Hyde has had a love of sports and fitness since she was a child. At the early age of eight, she began her training in Tae Kwon Do where at the age of sixteen she earned her black belt. While progressing in the martial arts, she had the energy and fervor to participate in extra-curricular cheerleading and basketball. 

At sixteen Joni took her first aerobics class and discovered her true calling. She decided to teach aerobics classes on a part-time basis. A few years later, making a pivotal career change, she left a promising future in real estate management to pursue her passion for fitness as a full-time endeavor. 

Joni started her career in fitness as a personal trainer exclusively for women. "I don't agree with the concept that one program fits both men and women," she states. Her instruction is focused on 'improving women's self esteem through a lifestyle that embraces physical fitness.'  It was this sentiment that became her motivation to reach more women. 

In 1998 Joni launched www.WorkoutsForWomen.com . Working to create empowerment and confidence within women is the philosophy that makes Workouts For Women successful. Understanding the distinctive needs of women during their pregnancy, Joni while pregnant herself, expanded Workouts For Women to include a specially tailored program for moms-to-be. This is one example of the thoroughness and foresight in which she helps women achieve physical fitness in every circumstance. 

With over thirteen years of professional experience, Joni is a well-respected individual in the fitness community. She has worked with professionals Tony Little, Body by Jake and Jeff Everson on various fitness projects. Also, she has made several television appearances including an NBC affiliate where she was featured as the fitness expert in a four week long segment about women's fitness. Additionally, Joni's work has been recognized by prestigious publications such as; Time, Self, Fitness, Shape, Consumer Reports on Health, and Seventeen, just to name a few.

Always striving to reach and inspire more women, Joni has invented an interactive DVD program that brings ten weeks of circuit training directly into their living rooms. Leading others in the fitness industry, her innovative DVD is cutting-edge and right on time. With the future in mind, she plans to release a series of DVDs that will closely follow the release of the first.

Fitness runs in the family. Joni's older brother Mark also achieved his black belt in Tae Kwon Do, while her younger brother, "Irish" Tommy Martin is a ranked IBF, WBC & WBO heavyweight contender. Joni resides in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, with her husband David and her three-year-old daughter Lindsey.
