About Aliesa George

Author of Fantastic Feet! Exercises to Strengthen the Ankles, Arches, and Toes

My Foot-Fitness History and Personal Story:

The pain in my ankles was excruciating, every step brought tears to my eyes, and I was hobbling around like a decrepit old lady instead of the teenager that I really was. The diagnosis, after x-rays, and nuclear dye tests was degenerative arthritis in my ankles – at the age of only sixteen!

Wondering if this was how it was going to be for the rest of my life, I was forced to retired from my sport of competitive gymnastics and do nothing that required any pressure on my feet, so that they could hopefully heal. This was my personal introduction to the importance of healthy feet.

Over the past twenty-six years…I’ve learned a lot more about how to care for my feet, listen to my body, and as a result have had zero problems with my ankles. I’m now running three or more miles several days a week, and feel blessed and fortunate that the pain and injury I experienced as a teenager – is now only a memory.

My dance and movement background, as well as Pilates teaching experience has provided wonderful layers of insight into the benefits of exercising the feet. While I have never intended to become a “Foot Fitness Expert,” it has been rewarding to see the benefits and improvements both myself, and my clients have had by increasing awareness, and gaining proper strength, flexibility, and mobility of the lower leg, ankle, arches, and toes.


I’ve never been one to toot my own horn..but it’s important for me to gain your trust and confidence, so here’s a brief outline of my experience and expertise.
