When you come in here and you are in an exercise class and you have an instructor and motivating music, you are more inclined to do the class. Whereas if you go in that room by yourself, you'll be done after 10 minutes.

January, February and March are the months we get the majority of our customers.

There are some people who are so motivated that I know approximately what time it is when I see them in here. That's rare.

Fifty percent of the people who come in here early January won't continue throughout the year.

Music is a secret arithmetical exercise and the person who indulges in it does not realize that he is manipulating numbers.

I regard music as something that transcends the labels of gender, class or creed, which is why I think it's such a powerful medium. And as a fashion plate? I have to tell you that I've been given many opportunities to collude with the fashion industry, but I declined because I don't want to be a clotheshorse for anyone.
