Entrepreneur Wellness: Iris London

Are your life goals aligning with your passion? Maybe you thought you were doing what you needed according to the deadlines you gave yourself, but in reality, you had to do more. In this episode, I am chatting with Iris T. London about her journey in circling back to her passion despite her insecurities and the goals she set for herself to meet by age 25.

 

Iris T. London is the founder and owner of ITL Fitness, where Fun & Fitness meets!

 

As a certified ITL Fit™ Coach, Spin, and Kickboxing instructor Iris T. London has developed an energetic style like no other. Her high-energy workout style blends dance (cardio) and strength training to enable clients to get the most out of every session. This unique style has made Iris T. London the most favored of Millennium Park Summer Workouts.

 

When not training her clients, Iris T. London is also an entertainer. As a triple threat in the entertainment industry, she has entertained audiences for over two decades with her singing, acting, and dancing. Iris T. London's credits include the hit stage play Bronzeville – The Musical, Goin' Home Wit Duke, and a tribute to Nat King Cole. In addition, Iris has worked with creative geniuses and artists such as David E. Talbert and BeBe Winans. As a choreographer, Iris has worked with many great organizations, including Life Changers International Church and Life Line Church, where she was the choreographer for their Girls Night Out events and a fitness coach for Life Changers International Church Summer Kids Camp. Iris T. London created and choreographed The Sister Accord® Slide. She now has the pleasure of traveling with The Sister Accord® Foundation and teaching The Sister Accord Slide® at events.

 

Iris T. London is the embodiment of spiritual, emotional, and physical health, which has given her the privilege to serve as a health ambassador for corporations and medical centers.

 

"If you are not taking the mental, the spiritual and physical time you need to pour back into yourself, at some point, you're going to be on fumes, and you are going to burn out - you will not be good for anybody." - Iris London
