Yes, she retired. She did talk about it and I remember there was some interview or something- it was few years ago now. I can see how it wasn't a big news story, though. These instructors are well known to many home exercisers but not to the general public so news about them isn't likely to be widespread. Unless you are Richard Simmons or Denise Austin.

My husband read an article somewhere that said that Leslie retired and that her daughter is running her company. I still do her workouts on days that I don't teach. I started doing her workouts in 2007 after my hysterectomy. My doctor told me the only exercise I could was walking. I walked outside but it was July and extremely hot, so I decided to try some of her indoor walking DVDs. They became a part of my regular routine.

I remember there being talk sometime after her Walk 15 set was released on QVC/HSN in 2019. The set included her Walk Leaders (Kamilah, Nadyia, Nick and Rocky) who led most of the workouts. Of the 5 DVD set, I think Leslie only led the 1st mile and she may have team taught with Nick in another. It's been too long since I've done this set, but most of the newer leaders were too lively for me, LOL. Many Leslie fans were wondering what had happened to Leslie and if she would release anymore workouts, after this release. I do miss Leslie, but have many of her walks that I can do anytime.

Well, I figured she was done, but I didn't know she actually said it publicly. I have to say that of all the video instructors I have used and know of, I always imagined she would be the one still out there walking with us well into her old age. Her program seemed primed to have the most longevity, too.
Oh, well. |
