Exercise writer
Upon completing a career as a professional ballerina, she became a flexibility trainer and developed her own technique, called Classical Stretch, designed to relieve pain, increase athletes' speed, and lengthen the muscles of the full body. Along with her daughter, Sahra, she is the creator of the fitness workout Essentrics. She also is host of the public television show Classical Stretch and author of the New York Times Best Selling book Aging Backwards, published in November 2014.
Her Essentrics work is presented for all ages, and with her daughter, Sahra Esmonde-White, she has developed a distance-learning teacher-training system which includes printed manuals and DVDs. She has written a textbook, Classical Stretch: The Esmonde Technique, and hosts a series of Classical Stretch DVDs.
