BROOKE BURKE is a television host, cancer survivor, entrepreneur, fitness educator, philanthropist, podcaster, and women’s health advocate who has been thriving in Hollywood for decades. The title she holds dearest, however, is that of mother to her four children.

Brooke has held numerous successful network television jobs and high-profile brand partnerships. In 2008, Brooke became the champion of “Dancing with the Stars” (DWTS) season 7 which she later parlayed into a co-hosting job that she would hold for eight seasons.

A born nurturer and motivator, Brooke became a certified breathwork teacher to help further her knowledge of whole-body wellness and, in 2019, created Brooke Burke Body (BB Body) — a mindful wellness app designed to Sweat Smart by working out from the comfort and safety of home. Dedicated to helping everyBODY make health and wellness a priority, BB Body is the mindful digital gym.
