Yolanda Hughes turned pro in 1992 by winning the IFBB World Amatuer Titles and went on to win the 1997 and 1998 Arnold Classic Champion and also made six Olympia appearances. Through her pro career she competed strictly in either the Arnold or the Olympia, never variating to other shows. She competed at around 164lbs and is now retired from bodybuilding and operating her own business in Washington state.

Her studio, called Fitness Exotica, seems to suit the name offering classes such as Cardio Striptease, Booty Camp, Sexy Flexy and Pole Dancing 101.
