The Inventor
Born in Oregon, raised in Seattle WA, Elizabeth spent her formative years studying dance, music and drama at the Cornish Institute of the Allied Arts. When not in school, this outdoor girl headed to the hills to ski, raft, ride horses, and climb Mt Ranier. Intent on pursuing a dance and theater career, Elizabeth moved to New York City and immediately landed a television commercial using her dance and athletic skills, one being the unusual role of a tightrope walker!  With a  SAG (Screen Actors Guild) card under her belt, she continued to study acting at the Actors Studio while balancing the drama of life. Later, these skills would be used in her business and in the art of motherhood.

In 1987, Elizabeth founded Aline Fitness Inc., a personal training firm that catered to in-home clients. The prestigious clientèle ranged from Anthony Quinn to Dr. Henry Kissinger. As the clientèle list grew, so did her notoriety. She was now a fit wife and business women.

Along came her first baby, Tatiana in 1990 and her life and career took a turn. She created an actual fitness system around a stroller and later turned it into a business. Her company grew quickly from two classes a week to 100 a month in NYC. Elizabeth wrote and directed her first Strollercize video and audio tape in 1995, "The Strollercize DVD Workout."  Her second video, " Strollercize Your Waist Away," was produced in 1998 as an ongoing series. In 1999 she was ready to expand her company but her marriage ended and her heart and family seemed broken.

With fitness as her strength and her faith, she continued to run her New York City personal training studio and turned Strollercize into the largest stroller fitness business in the country. In 2001 she wrote her first book, "Strollercize, The New Mothers Workout," published by Random House. But like all roads in life, their are bumps and this stroller fitness queen, took a detour. In 2001,  New York City experienced 9/11 and in 2002 we had the big black out. It seemed a very tough time to take care of a family, run two businesses and deal with a crushing divorce.

When the children got a bit older, Trindade headed south as a early "Snow Bird". She took her skills as a personal trainer and started "Tee Time For Fitness" for those in gated communities. Life was all about tennis, golf, alligators and teaching fitness classes to mature mavens and amazing energetic women of The Worthington Country Club in Bonita Springs Florida. It was this move that would create the next big chapter in this fitness gurus quest to find fitness in every chapter in life. In helping older clients get fit this retired ballet dancer had an old hip injury so getting down to the floor to demonstrate was a big painful ordeal. But it was this pain, that had been with her for years that caused the creation of the greatest fitness tool, The RollerSizeR!.

Trindade, now a better trainer, inventor and even a better mom, devotes her time to training her Strollercize Certified Instructors and her members in The RollerSizeR Web Fit Club.


The Invention
The story is in the introductory DVD, A Nail In My Eye. Like any invention there is that moment when you know something solves a problem and it works and people want it.
On that day Elizabeth was cutting up old floor carpets to help her class at The Worthington Country Club. She wanted to add more cushion to their old mats. In doing so she placed a bit of rolled up carpet under her own hip, which she had dislocated in a dance injury five years prior. She lived with the pain and just blamed getting old and arthritis setting in to her joints. But that day, with a piece of rolled carpet under her butt this roller sizer became a portable tool with triple fit benefits.

The process did not come without drama. One day trying to fix the fabric on The RollerSizeR, I put a Nail In My Right Eye! That is right, a real nail in the center of my eye. I tore the retina and lost my site for six months

The eye doctors broke the news that Elizabeth  could not do any abs while the eye was in healing and going through the surgeries. The process to see again and or hope to see again was maybe a year from the date of injury. During the healing process, multiple surgeries, a couple of seizures, a long bot of depression, Elizabeth gained 35 pounds of fat. The inventor had invented the greatest ab device and couldn't use it and harvested belly fat.  But it was that time off that she improved her teaching skills by sitting down and created the RollerSizeR "class language". The DVD shows these "growing" pains.

Two years later, hundreds of RollerSizeRs have been sold and she is now raising money to take the invention to a national level.

The RollerSizer has been seen on  Regis and Kelly Show and gave both of them once of the first prototypes. I even stood in line to get a autograph of Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough at a book signing in Madison Ct. They got a early version and maybe it went to the dogs.

The RollerSizeR now has it's own Web Fit Club where she trains clients on line using this amazing ab toning tool.

Faith, a little Fat, make things roll away. Like a rock n roll workout. Get stone hard abs. Amen.
