Michael Jay Kahn was born!

Dallas Alexandria Stephens was born!

Michael grew up in Los Angeles, CA

She grew up in Quincy, Illinois

Michael went to Beverly High School, played basketball, ran track, and was voted "prettiest boy" in his class. "I was a stud & very popular" - Michael

Dallas went to Quincy Notre Dame High School, was a cheerleader all 4 years & graduated in 2012. Dallas was not the most popular & did not win any voting or awards lol

Michael went to Culinary school & became a chef, working in hospitality and eventually becoming manager of Hillstone Group working in various cities such as Chicago, Napa Valley & Memphis TN.

Dallas moved to Chicago in pursuit of a modeling career. She worked as a server and modeled whenever jobs would be available. She used her server money to travel the world and get the most out of her young 20's while she could. Andddd that she did...she was never in the same city for longer than 3 months

Dallas left Chicago to move to LA to further her modeling career. She discovered her passion for fitness modeling in 2018 and signed to a fitness agency who she is still with today.

Michael left the restaurant industry on a quest to find himself and what his real mission in life is. He backpacked alone (Bryan joined later) through Thailand and other countries, where he became a yoga instructor & scuba diver instructor.

Michael returned to LA to pursue a career in fitness, where he became the studio manager of F45 in Weho

Dallas also wante out of the hospitality industry and to dive more into fitness. She joined F45 Weho, where she met Michael and started her trainer career.

One of their favorite trips was spent living in a van in Hawaii over New Year's

Their time together was never taken for granted.

They celebrated their 1 year anniversary in Disney

Dallas moved to Los Angeles to be with Michael & Huxley permanently

Dallas made herself at home fairly quickly, redoing their entire house. She knew she would be there to stay for quite some time :)

They opened their first successful business together called "Bünda" and plan to open another 2 in the next year.

Michael & Dallas, as busy as they are, always be sure to take time for themselves & their relationship (& Huxley)

They love their life together as a couple, roommates, and business partners. This is just the beginning!!
