National Aerobic Championship - Blast from the past
A few months ago, I found a series of youtube videos archived by "aerobicvideofan" featuring the National Aerobic Championships (NAC). i skipped around to see whether there were any notable names who later became video instructors for the general public. I am not sure whether they still conduct this competition any longer in the US. Other countries might be. The Wikipedia page link is here.
Every so often, the question comes up on VF whether an instructor was a National Aerobic Champion, and unfortunately, I couldn't find a website that shows their history. Hope you enjoy this Blast from the Past! here are the names of some of the finalists by year, and the hosts. 1985, Michelle LeMay; Hosted by Susan Anton, Chris Rogers, Louis Anderson, Maureen Johahm 1986, Scott Cole; Hosted by Cathy Lee Crosby, Rachel McLish, Ed Marinero 1986, Brenda Dygraf; Hosted by Cathy Lee Crosby, Rachel McLish, Ed Marinero 1987, Tim Calagan; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1987, Scott Cole; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1987, Andre Houle; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1987, Troy Markle; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1987, Linda McHugh; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1987, Jeff Vandiver; Hosted by Raquel Welch, Alan Thicke, Kari Austin 1988, Scott Cole; Hosted by Alan Thicke, Dwight Stone, Charlene Prickett 1988, Andre Houle; Hosted by Alan Thicke, Dwight Stone, Charlene Prickett 1988, Jeff Vandiver; Hosted by Alan Thicke, Dwight Stone, Charlene Prickett 1989, Andre Houle; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1989, Terrie Reeves; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1989, Donna Richardson; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1989, Tim Wells; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1990, Patrick Goudeau; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1990, Mindy Mylrea; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1990, Michelle Nevidomsky; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Chris Marlowe 1991, Tim Green; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1991, Patricia Moreno; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1991, Mindy Mylrea; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1991, Michelle Nevidomsky; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1991, Terrie Reeves; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1991, Donna Richardson; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1992, Patricia Moreno; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1992, Nancy Popp; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1992, Giselle Roque de Escobar; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1993, Nancy Popp; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1993, Misty Tripoli; Hosted by Charlene Prickett, Brian Drebber 1994, Jeanette Jenkins; Hosted by Brian Drebber, Deborah Khazei 1994, Minna Lessig; Hosted by Brian Drebber, Deborah Khazei 1996, Minna Lessig; Hosted by Brian Drebber, Deborah Khazei 1997, Michelle Nevidomsky; Hosted by Greg Lewis, Arnold Schwarzenegger 1998, Yumi Lee; Hosted by Not listed It's worth mentioning that in 1997, the NAC released 3 workout videos led by David Dixon, Nikki Holt, Sharon Meredith, Michelle Nevidomsky (Dozois), and Giselle Rogue de Escobar (early Zumba, Crunch, and Trainer's Edge): NAC Interval Challenge NAC Measured Intensity NAC Body Parts (Toning video) The workout video series routines were designed by Madeleine Lewis, written by Ted Landon (Living Arts, Yoga Journal, and now Gaiam), and directed by Jamie Legon (Directed fitness videos by Karen Voight, Kathy Smith, Paula Abdul, and directed many other films in the entertainment industry) NAC Interval Challenge has 2 series of VF reviews and made the old VF Hall of Fame (some of the reviews overlap in the 2 links below): http://96.30.11.231/reviews/nac-ic.php http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=1246 NAC Measured Intensity VF Reviews: http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=1247 NAC Body Parts VF Reviews: http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=2323 I used all three videos on a regular basis back in the day!
