Description
Book SynopsisThrough Almost Perfect, Erika Lemay shares how she became world-famous by creating a career out of her passion — the acrobatic world of Physical Poetry. The gritty detail of a life in the spotlight is exposed — rebuilding herself after a fall that left one of her limbs compromised and challenged all she had aspired to be, avoiding child abusers in the show business world, and keeping her cool when the unpredictable happens 30 metres in the air. More than this, Erika explains the methodology behind her success stories. With precise parameters, tips, and tricks, Almost Perfect is the guide she shares to a pain-free life, which explains how she maintains her physical conditions to Olympic-athlete level, and demonstrates how everyone can achieve the extraordinary — not by magical thinking but by designing a precise set of habits that can open doors to what most think is only accessible to the few.
Almost Perfect is ideal for anyone that aspires to exceptional health, an extraordinary life, a head-turning physique, and an enviable career. Erika’s carefully crafted methodology for excelling at specific goals is laid bare for the world to see. Nothing comes for free: a detail-oriented and elite mindset is the key to the most incredible life-changing path. Throughout Almost Perfect, readers learn to be the incarnation of coherence through iron discipline and unshakeable self-worth.

"Erika Lemay shares the secrets of excellence and success in her inspiring story. While this path is a very personal and solitary one, any person striving to make a difference in the world has confronted the very same questions, doubts, mistakes, and feelings of self-overestimation and underestimation. Almost Perfect portrays the very essence of the artist and, in general, of the overachiever who discovers the inevitable truth: perfecting oneself is not a coveted destination, but an eternal direction."
—Maestro Alvise Casellati | Conductor
