How Deja Riley Balances Shakin' It While Keeping It Zen

Deja Riley is killing the fitness game! She's a PUMA trainer, the creator of #danceoutsidethebox, and the host of Dance FitSugar. She is known for her impeccable dance moves and dancing with A-list artists in world tours and music videos (just ask Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga). Many of her workouts are also available on POPSUGAR Glow, our new marketplace where you can shop for a variety of fitness and wellness content created by your favorite trainers and health experts.

Deja's determination has landed her where she is today. After realizing that professional dancing wasn't going to pay the bills forever, she decided to take her passion for dance and become a full-time entrepreneur within the fitness industry. Her main goal is to motivate women to be the best they can possibly be by helping them find ways to keep both their bodies and minds in check. She's learned some important lessons about herself and her body along the way, like giving up her beloved dairy for healthier options like avocado. Her mental health game is just as fabulous as her physical health game — Deja makes it a priority to mediate and practice yoga regularly. Keeping in touch with herself before anyone else has led her to Power Her Own Glow!
