Rating: 4.0/5 Stars
Rank: 1162
Hipper than Taebo, sexier than Pilates, The S Factor--stripping--is
the hottest new fitness trend. Created by actress Sheila Kelley (LA
Law, Sisters, and a host of film and Broadway roles), S-Factor
classes are wildly popular and generating an avalanche of attention from
Extra, Entertainment Tonight, The Los Angeles Times, Allure, Us
magazine, Fox News, and CBS's 48 Hours, which proclaimed:
"Women don't even know they're working out until two months later when
they say, 'I've never had a better body in my life. I'm strong, I'm
limber, I feel great.'" Sheila even convinced Barbara Walters to try a
pole dance on The View.
No wonder.
Combining yoga, dance,
and erotic movements, The S Factor is a program that tones muscle,
firms the body, increases flexibility, promotes weight loss, and gives you
a few new tricks for the bedroom.
Illustrated in hundreds of photographs
that show step by step how each move is done, the exercises are sensual
yet demanding, requiring a balance of strength and finesse.
There are
slow, rounded warm-ups, the Spine Circles and Hip Circles. Strenuous
motions, like the Rocking Cat-Cow.
Peels and rolls, grinds, pounces,
arches. And pole work, from the Firefly to Descending
Angel.
Something else happens, too: These exercises and routines
boost self-esteem and give women a new way to think about their bodies.
Stripping is a liberating act, out of which comes a new look, new body,
new confidence, new you.
About the AuthorA remarkable talent who brings experience and grace to all her projects,
Sheila Kelley is a performer who embodies the very femininity actresses
covet and strive for. Inspired by her role in Dancing at the Blue Iguana,
a gritty, unapologetic story about women who make their living as
strippers (which she also co-wrote and produced), Sheila discovered the
natural sexual power of stripping.
In April 2001 she began teaching her
stripping technique in a class called the S Factor out of her home.
So
successful were these classes that Sheila was forced to hire more
instructors and move the classes to a new, larger studio, which opened in
June 2003 in Los Angeles.
To spread the movement to women across the
country Sheila has written The S Factor: Strip Workouts for Every Woman.
With an acting career spanning television, film, and theater, Sheila made
her mark on the entertainment industry.
Her longest television stint was
four years on NBC's L.A. Law; Sheila also had a recurring role in the
network's cornerstone series, E.R.
Ever busy, she conquered Broadway in
1995 in My Thing of Love at the same time playing long-lost sister Charlie
Bennet for the final season of Sisters.
Her long line of film credits
includes Cameron Crowe's Singles, Neil Labute's Nurse Betty, and a
co-starring role alongside Michelle Pfeiffer and George Clooney in One
Fine Day. Sheila can next be seen alongside Nicholas Cage in the new
Warner Brothers film Matchstick Men. Sheila Kelley lives in Los Angeles
with her husband, Richard Schiff (of The West Wing) and their two
children.
