Throughout her life, Michèle has always been active. Growing up in Switzerland, in the foothills of the Alps, she began skiing at an early age. Later, she also cycled, ran and practised ballet.

As a young adult, Michèle developed a soft spot for Pilates. In fact, she enjoyed it so much that she eventually became a certified instructor. She has not taught it yet, but she might one day, who knows. One thing is certain, for Michele, being active is a vital necessity, along with regular meditation, healthy eating and proper sleep. Together, they are a winning combination for staying balanced and facing the many challenges in her daily life.

Michèle also strongly believes in inspiring young people to get moving and enjoy the many physical and mental benefits of sports, something she does regularly with her children. She is proud to be taking part in the FitSpirit Mother/Daughter Challenge with her daughter Sarah, 20-years-old, an athlete who always manages to integrate physical activity into her daily life despite a demanding university schedule.

"Physical activity has always made a positive impact on my balance and well-being throughout my childhood and teen years. By taking part in the FitSpirit Mother/Daughter Challenge, I want to help raise awareness about the importance of sports during this crucial period in a young woman's life." – Sarah

Throughout her career, Michèle has also made time for the causes dear to her heart. Well-being, in all its many forms, is a common theme, ever present in the way she lives her life and the way she gives back to others. She's currently a member of the Board of Directors at Danse Danse, and regularly takes part in the Tablée des chefs, which helps feed people in need.
