I'm Judy driver. I'm from London and I started plotters in 1998 I was doing my work classes at my local gym. I thought it was fantastic. It started doing more and more classes every week and then my father died in 1997 and it was a turning point because I realized that I wanted to be a Pelosi's teacher. I wanted to be do some more giving and that's what I did. My training, hi, my name is Judy driver and I'm qualified to the body control polities association in the United Kingdom to master level at my work studio. My decision to enter the competition, it just felt like the right time to do it.

I'd seen the competition in previous years and it hadn't been right. I was either pregnant or how small children and when I saw it this time, it wasn't like the stars were aligned and it was my moment to do it. I was watching the hours kicked down and I kept looking at the numbers and I kept thinking, you never know. That could just be a change at the last moment. And then when I saw it said voting, it ended, I was at home with my two and a half year old twins. They saw mommy run around the garden like an idiot and they just didn't know what to do. So they just joined in.

What I like about Colossus and what first drew me to pull out is, was when I did my first lesson, I left feeling invigorated, like had learned something about my body. I didn't feel bored during the lesson. I think that's really important too, to not feel bored. And every time you go to Pelosi's it can be a bit different. It's something when you, every time, thank you very much. [inaudible] really who is the winner this year?

The next plot is anytime instructor and I am actually really proud to say this is a fellow brands. We're actually going to be represented in this world. So I'm so excited about that. So can you tell us where you're from? I'm from London, but originally from Yorkshire in the north of England and I'm very proud to be from Yorkshire. Yeah. I'm from Birmingham, so I might know other than a two. So there is parties out there. I wasn't in America, so this is great. So how are you feeling? I mean, overwhelmed, I think is the biggest emotion.

I'm overwhelmed. I didn't expect to, when I entered as a confidence boost, because I've got two very small children needed to just do something for myself. Filmed it in my basement, posted it, and I'm here and it's awesome. I'm so delightful. I just hope I do. Everyone proud you will do everyone proud? I'm very proud of you. I'm stuck.
