We had the good fortune of connecting with Xavier and Shalita Amie and we’ve shared our conversation below.

We specialize in group training as well as individual training.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
This journey started out with a unhealthy diagnosis from a doctors visit and transition into a whole lifestyle change. At first, my wife and I were just working out to lose weight and be healthier but when we discovered Xtreme HipHop with Phil, we found something that intrigued us both. I have to admit my wife has more rhythm than me. So she picked up the routines faster. But we both loved the workouts and the motivation we received while watching his videos on YouTube and participating in the workouts. When my wife discovered that Phil goes on tours to different cities, we had to attend a class when we found out he’ll be coming to Phoenix. The in person experience with Phil just solidified what we had already been experiencing at home doing the workouts. That Xtreme HipHop is a great way to workout, get motivated, and help others. Phil compassion and desire to change lives one step at a time, just empowers us to keep going. So after we completed the class, which you can go view on YouTube, we was hooked. But the journey didn’t end there, once we also discovered that we could become certified trainers under the Xtreme umbrella and bring this to our city, it was a no brainer. And now you can say the rest is history.
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
For eating we would suggest Taco boy, lacansta, PF Chang’s, the coronado, and Trapp house Bar B Que. Papago park is a great place to hike and for any type of night life, we would suggest bad bingo, old town Scottsdale, or Mr. Bowtie events.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
The creator and founder of the Xtreme brand … Mr. Phil Weeden from Cleveland. OH.
