Today our sensational guest host Kia Williams, 2022 IDEA Fitness Instructor of the Year, has the mic again. In this episode, she welcomes Alessandro Pisanu, who was a 2022 finalist for IDEA’s brand-new Emerging Trailblazer of the Year award. This man’s journey to international recognition began in his college dorm room when COVID first broke out in Italy—and he’s been a star on the rise ever since!
Pisanu broke onto the global scene by hosting Facebook live classes as a way to keep himself and his students in Italy moving while all the gyms were closed during pandemic. Now, as a group fitness instructor, personal trainer and fitness presenter and influencer, he teaches 12 weekly group fitness classes in person and another 4 from his online platform.
Even more impressive? Pisanu quickly learned English during this phase and began teaching classes in English in order to communicate universally with his new, online global audience. Let’s learn more about his mission to connect people around the world through fitness, with 100% inclusivity as his objective.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
