A Fitness Legacy Like No Other

25+ years of global influence, inspiring millions to transform their lives through fitness

Fit Life Journal

Kiana's philosophy centers on empowering individuals to take control of their health through sustainable fitness practices. Her mission has always been to inspire generational impact, creating a legacy that extends beyond workouts to transform lives, families, and communities worldwide.

Kiana's Flex Appeal

ESPN's #1 Rated Fitness Show. Kiana's Flex Appeal became the #1 rated fitness show in the history of ESPN after just one week of airing. An unprecedented Nielsen rating of .5 — never achieved before.

She co-produced: wrote scripts for hundreds of workouts, selected cast, scouted locations (Ritz Carlton Maui, Grand Wailea, Turtle Bay Oahu, Jamaica Breezes), curated wardrobe, filmed at 5AM, shot bikini footage at lunch, flew to New York to sit in editing 8 hrs/day, recorded opening theme with a Hans Zimmer collaborator.

Aired in 80 million homes, 100 countries. Entertainment Tonight, Extra, and Inside Edition filmed on set. "The crew slowly started training on the machines at lunch and choosing the cast's healthy food over their own cheeseburgers — that spoke volumes."
