Tracy Anderson left her Indiana hometown at 18 with dreams of becoming a ballet dancer in New York.
The dancing career never panned out, but after more than two decades of work, Anderson has established herself as a prominent fitness trainer to the stars.
The pint-sized training guru now presides over a fitness empire worth $35 million, and counts Jennifer Lopez, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kim Kardashian as clients. Despite her success, Anderson doesn't think of herself as an entrepreneur she just wanted her students to get fitter and feel better.
