Fitness Models - Photos of Top Figure Competitor Jana Stewart
Biography I was born and raised in Southfield, Michigan. I’m the youngest 3 children (2 older brothers). My parents were very adamant about getting me involved in various activities at a young age. So I participated in softball, cheerleading, dance, gymnastics and theater all before I turned 16. In High School I continued to participate in cheerleading and pom –pon, I even tried my hand at powder puff football during my senior year. During that time, I also coached a cheerleading team in the inner-city where my Mother was a teacher. I went on to attend Florida A&M University where I gave athletics a break and concentrated on my studies, in 1996 I received a Bachelors of Science degree in Business Economics and went on to receive my Masters degree in Public Administration. Upon completing
graduate school in 1997, I moved to Atlanta, Georgia where I worked for Arthur
Andersen LLP and IBM Corporation. In the summer of 1998, while planning a trip
to Cancun, I decided to tap back into my athletic side by joining a health club
so that I would be bikini ready for the beach. That day marks the beginning of
a long, hard road that I’m still traveling down today. In April
of 2000, I relocated to Beverly Hills, California to work for an entertainment
& fashion website. During my stay in California, I devoted countless hours
in the gym trying to improve my body and health. Not only did I start and run
a successful entertainment Public Relations firm, but I also became the official
health & fitness guru consulting family, friends, and even strangers off the
street. In August of 2001, I decided to put my training to the test by signing
up with the Leukemia & Lymphoma society to not only raise $1300 to help find
a cure for the deadly diseases, but also run the LA Marathon. Completing a Marathon
was a tremendous accomplishment for me and only sparked my desire to explore different
areas of health & fitness. I relocated to Detroit Michigan in April of 2002 for a new job and to be closer to family. A few months after I arrived, I met the owner of Power House gym who convinced me to enter figure competitions. I was an avid reader of Oxygen magazine so it did not take much convincing to start training for my first show. The year 2004 proved to be an exciting
one for me. Placing 9thh at my very first National show only motivated me to improve
my physique and continue competing. I went on to take 3rd place at Team Universe
as well as a second place at The North American Figure Championships. I now have
my sights set on getting my pro card and becoming a well known face in the fitness
industry. With high spirits and the quest to continue to improve and perfect my
body, I will continue to compete, model and promote the health and fitness industry.
Additionally, I am now lending my talents and services to help others achieve
optimal fitness & health. With my eyes set on the moon I certainly plan to
land among the stars.
