Rewinding to the fruition of "Boca's Best Body," TBT wanted to start its first event of the year by mixing fitness, modeling, and entertainment. The competition submission process was pretty easy by visiting www.bocasbestbody.com and filling out your contact information, headshot, and a brief background story on why they should be chosen. With over 132 submissions, only 30 were selected; 15 males and 15 females.

Fast forwarding day-of-event, as guests arrived, they were greeted by checking in as either general admission seating or VIP. To the grand second floor, vendors welcomed guests, such as Basis Medical, Carrot Express, Fit Life Foods, PurLife, Busy Body Fitness Center Premium, Celsius, Mizfit Inc., Berman Law Group, Stretch Zone & icryo.

The night got insane and drama-packed as female contestants dropped out of fear from the competition moments before doors opened, and the males got freaky with their performance delivery.

At one point, TBT had to scout for female competitors as they entered, making the tension for "showbiz" larger than life! The brief intermission, as contestants' points were tallied, had the crowd jumping out of their seats as 2017 World of Dance winner "Sean's Dance Factory" hyped the stage.

The top 3 females and the top 5 males were brought to the stage. Presenting the awards were sponsors Fisher Edwards with Celsius and Dr. Phil from Basis Medical. Our first-place female winner was Kendall #11, and our first-place male was Joshua #34. The electric chemistry between the judges, hosts, competitors, and audience made the night's energy memorable. The entire night was documented and captured for a TV show pilot filmed by Nathan Taupez Scinto with his production company "Global Filmz."

Finally, the after-party took place down the same block at restaurant Kapow, a fusion of Asian cuisine with French Vietnamese flair. The karaoke bar was pumping, and the drinks were endless. A great way to end a successful event! For more upcoming TBT EVENTS, please visit www.thebermanteam.com
