I recently posted a Facebook video of a woman, significantly overweight -KILLING it at yoga.

Everyone loves a success story!

SO, I’m not one of those “body acceptance” people.  Surprised?  You shouldn’t be. What your body looks like is something YOU have to be happy with.  For me it is a non-issue.  I don’t NEED to be accepting of your body.  It’s yours.  Not mine. AND You can be happy or unhappy with the way your body looks.  Currently I am unhappy with the way my body looks.  I just finished radiation therapy for breast cancer and gained 30 lbs.  I HATE how I feel and am not pleased with the way I look.

Whatcha doin’ with your kids this summer?

Parents!  I need your feedback! ASAP!

Beth is cooking up an interactive obstacle course for kids!  Designed by kids (with Beth), built by kids and run by kids!  But wait… there’s more!  Once the course is built we will compete “Ninja warrior-style” with parents/guardian!

This class is designed to help kids:

  • take ownership of their fitness with easy to remember set up goals
  • take others into consideration (regressing or making alternate moves)
  • plan with others in a group
  • find fitness through play
  • translate this knowledge to their own backyards!

Ages: Mature 7yr olds thru 11.  See Beth for exceptions.

There may be a snack planning 1/2hr after class depending on the time of the class. The goal of this section is to:

  1. not send kids on errands or home ravenous
  2. learn to make choices based on a point system encouraging whole foods, low sugar foods and diversified food selections.

The course will last 6 weeks and is paid upfront.  Cost TBD.

Which would YOU prefer??
(please only answer if you are actually interested in bringing your kids)

  • 1x week
  • 2x week
  • 10:30am-noon (includes smart snacking options)
  • 3-4pm

Hover Challenge at the celebration / fundraiser held for me the day after my last day of radiation. Guess what? I did NOT win. ;)

Cancer, fitness and recovery.

Ugh.  The “C” word.  It strikes fear in the hearts of even the most brave!  Fortunately, I am not brave.  I just keep moving forward, maybe even oblivious to the gravity of the events at hand.  I call that a blessing!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in January of this year.   Read More

Fighting fit = Life fit

Most people think one of two things when they think “gym” or “workout”.

  1. Big muscley guy grunting and sweating in front of the mirror while moving big pieces of iron up and down.
  2. Slender, feminine women jumping and barely sweating in a group fitness room with silly music and weak moves.

LOL! Well, perhaps we have progressed a bit, right?! Read More

March 7-12 Heads up and FINGERS CROSSED this is the last week I will need to modify our schedule!

Here’s what is and what is NOT happening at Center-Fit. It’s probably easiest to log into Mindbody to see what classes are running and who is teaching!

  • Monday: No change in Schedule
  • Tuesday: No 5:45 or 9AM classes – Evening classes are run by Beth as normally scheduled
  • Wednesday: 5:45am CORE with Damien is a GO – take advantage! He is a master at what he does.
    NO TSC. Megan is teaching Combat 6pm
  • Thursday: No 9am Class. Evening classes as Scheduled
  • Friday: Classes as Scheduled
  • Saturday: Classes as Scheduled

ALL WEEK: No open gym

Thanks for your patience as I am recovering quickly (but WAY too slowly for my liking!!) and for your well wishes as I practice what I preach (to you… every class) LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.
Thanks! ^^Beth^^ and the Center-Fit Team!

What a great day today was!  It was my first day back teaching Kettlebell since my operation for breast cancer (DCIS/LCIS) a week and 4 days ago.  Nooooo, I wasn’t on the floor swinging the bell and pushing iron over my head! Let’s talk about returning from injury. This is my story.  You make your own story, k?

**No that lady in bed is not ME! Silly 😉

Opportunity thru adversity!

This is something I really believe.  Each problem presents opportunity.  It’s all about perspective.  As you know I’ve got some health issues I am taking care of.  At first I was really nervous about how on earth I was going to be able to keep my promise to my clients (Good instruction, quality kettlebell classes, powerful kickboxing classes, etc..) Sure, Center-Fit is a great group and probably would have understood if I just took a week or two off, but that’s not what they signed up for.  The opportunity? Read More

We couldn’t be more excited for the opportunities our members have to learn from 2 very knowledgable professionals! Not only are Mike and Chris proficient in their own fields, they are long time members at Center-Fit.  They understand and follow hardstyle kettlebell and good movement practices!  The last class Chris taught was so well received we asked him back right away!  Read More
