Hollywood stuntwoman leading Marble Falls health seminar
DANIEL CLIFTON • PICAYUNE EDITOR
MARBLE FALLS — Cheryl Wheeler Duncan knows a thing or two about health and fitness. After all, her career as a professional stuntwoman requires her to maintain a certain level of fitness.
A fall while shooting a film several years ago not only almost robbed her of her health, but her life as well. Yet, Duncan — then Cheryl Wheeler — not only recovered from her life-threatening injuries, but thrived.
Duncan will share her story and her ideas for women’s health during a seminar April 26 at the SculptMoves and Hill Country Dance and Cheer headquarter, 910 Ninth St.
“She has a wonderful story to tell,” said Cheryl Westerman, owner of SculptMoves. “She’s basically paying it forward and trying to let women know what’s going on in their bodies and how they can eat better and live healthier lifestyles.”
Westerman said the stuntwoman’s message has personally changed her life.
Duncan’s seminar will start at noon, but it’s one of several things organizers are holding. Westerman will lead a workout 9-11 a.m. at her new facility.
“It’s a beginner-friendly workout, so anybody can come in and join in,” Westerman said.
Tenisha Graham of Hill Country Dance and Cheer will give people a chance to try their hand (as well as their hips, legs and entire body) at Zumba.
One of Westerman’s friends, Natalie Heckert, will demonstrate her Total E-Fit resistance trainer.
“We’re just combining our knowledge and passion to teach women how to be healthier,” Westerman said.
While it is geared toward women, Westerman said men are also welcome because the message revolves around healthy living. Plus, she said, men could share what they learned with the women in their lives: mother, wife, daughter and sister.
