About
Tami-Adrian George...
Tami is a Pilates educator, business strategist, and founder of the Fitness Empire Accelerator — a coaching program for fitness professionals ready to build sustainable businesses outside the broken studio model. She received her first certification in 1992 and has spent 35 years since teaching private clients, developing sport-specific programs, and filming as a featured instructor on OPC — Online Pilates Classes. She is one of the few business coaches in the fitness industry still actively on the floor.
Before building her coaching practice, Tami spent 25 years as a working actor and model — 50+ national campaigns, music videos, and productions including Starship Troopers, General Hospital, and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. That background in performance and storytelling is not a footnote. It's why she communicates the way she does.
She doesn't coach from memories.
She coaches from Monday morning.
Whether she’s teaching a private client, filming for an international Pilates platform, mentoring fitness professionals, or speaking on a podcast, Tami brings the same philosophy: practical experience beats borrowed theory.

Tami brings a perspective that is rare in the fitness industry —
built from decades of experience on both sides of the business, not borrowed from generic entrepreneurship advice.
Podcast hosts and editors book her to talk about:
-
Why the studio model is broken and what fitness professionals can build instead
-
The certification gap: what comprehensive training programs teach, and what they leave out entirely
-
How to build a hybrid premium service model that meets clients wherever they are
-
Pricing, rates, and why fitness professionals chronically undercharge — and how to stop
-
The "proof of concept" approach to business coaching: teaching what you live, not what you remember
-
NLP and storytelling as tools for client retention, sales conversations, and business growth
-
What 35 years on the floor actually teaches you about sustainability, longevity, and what clients really need
-
The Hollywood to Pilates pipeline: performance, presence, and why communication is a business skill
