Anyone who's ever seen acrobats perform with a company
like Cirque du Soleil* knows that the athletes involved
are among the fittest human beings in the universe.
Imagine how one of them would handle her fit pregnancy!
Karyne Steben is one of the renowned Steben twins,
known throughout the world for their daring duo trapeze
act. The twins began their training in gymnastics when
they were seven years old and progressed to the trapeze
at the age of ten, developing the strength, discipline
and courage that an act of this caliber demands.
At the tender age of 16, they began touring with the
prestigious Cirque du Soleil company, astounding audiences
across the globe with their skill and daring. Karyne
and Sarah left Cirque du Soleil after 11 happy years
to pursue a career in acting. They can be seen in various
commercials, music videos and starring in the new HBO
series "Carnivále".
In The Perfect Pregnancy Workout, Karyne is
a beautiful 7 ˝ months pregnant. She gave birth to Azia,
a healthy, active girl, without an epidural. During
active labor, when the nurse asked her how she was doing
she replied, "I love it!" Due to her healthy lifestyle
during pregnancy, Karyne was back to her pre-pregnancy
weight just four weeks after giving birth- without any
decrease in milk supply.
In The Perfect Postnatal Workout,
baby Azia is seven weeks old. Less than a week after
this video was shot, Karyne was performing again with
Cirque du Soleil!
Karyne is a breastfeeding mom and finds that her commitment
to staying fit and healthy is reinforced by her desire
to be there for the long run for her daughter.
