 Dr. Kathleen Gross D.C. C.C.S.P. F.I.A.M.A. Wellness Advisor
Body Fat! How much do you need to shed?
Maybe you want six-pack abs. Maybe you just want to loose that Holiday gut. Or maybe the amount of fat you are carrying around is posing a real health risk.
DEXA is state-of-the-art technology which measures the percentage of fat in your body with tremendous accuracy. Get measured so you know exactly where you are and where you need to be. Then you can design the right plan to get yourself where you want to be. I can help with nutritional guidance if you'd like; our Personal Trainers can assist you in creating the best workout plan to get you there faster.
The testing will be offered right here at Pura Vida, Thursday, January 29 1-5 pm. Sign up at the front desk.
Hospital grade hip & spine bone density: member $119 non-member $143 Body composition: member $119 non-member $143 Both tests: member $149 non-member $179
Changing for Good: Not WHAT to Do but HOW to Do It

Lose all the weight you want to and Keep It Off for Good. Join me on Thursday evenings from 6-7 pm. This is an ongoing program - you can join in at any time.

A Message From Keith Moore
Pura Vida Members,
We have had a fantastic January at Pura Vida and I want to thank all of you for recommending the club to your friends and colleagues. As well, I would like to welcome the 71 new members who have decided to make Pura Vida their choice in fitness this January. I look forward to meeting each of you in the coming weeks and getting to know you.
As we continue to refine Pura Vida in 2009, it is essential that I get feedback from all of you as to what will make your club even better. Although there is a comment box at the service desk, please do not hesitate to ask for me when you're at the club. It is important for me to hear how your experience is at Pura Vida and how we can make it better.
Speaking of better, the fitness department has scheduled numerous new programs that elevate the overall experience at Pura Vida. I highly recommend experiencing a group class to enhance your overall membership. Many of us fall into the same routine each time we hit the fitness floor. Layering your routines with Yoga, Pilates, Zumba, or some truly unique classes such as "Define the Lines" invigorates both the mind and body. Pura Vida instructors are welcoming and ready to get you involved.
A reminder to all that with your membership we offer a 1 hour consultation with Dr. Kathleen Gross. Dr K's experience in life coaching and behavioral change is vast. Her knowledge of both eastern and western medicine and wellness practices is lengthy. If you have not met with Dr K, please let us know so that we can get you signed-up. She will recommend classes, personal trainers, nutrition, etc. to insure that you get the most of your membership. It is a terrific introduction to the club and great way to insure that you are familiar with all that Pura Vida has to offer.
PurYoga is back! I'm very happy to say that the 4th floor Yoga Studio will be fully operational Saturday, January 31st. Your patience has been appreciated. The gorgeous dark wood flooring will arrive in March, however in the interim we have placed a high-grade carpet, suitable for high temperatures and high humidity. Look for additional classes on our website, as well as additional instructors, as we continue to set Pura Vida yoga apart.
As we continue to grow the membership base, it is astounding to me the similarities that our members share. Not only fitness goals, but life goals as well. Similar backgrounds, similar interests outside of the club . . similar hobbies and occupations. Because of this, Pura Vida will be developing outside social events in the near future. We believe strongly in the word 'balance' as it pertains to life. A glass of wine (or two) with friends after an intense workout, truly captures what we so passionately call . . . Pura Vida.
Please feel free to contact me directly at keithm@puravidaclub.com with questions, concerns, or simply to say hello. And of course I am always available to you while you are at the club.
 Yours in health, Keith Moore General Manager Pura Vida Fitness & Spa

| Member Parking
|
Please remember the following tips for successful parking in the attached Fillmore Place garage: Keep your parking ticket safe from creases, wrinkles, oils, or damage as all of these potentially demagnetize the validation and it will not read properly. Each stamp is valid for up to three hours validation, per visit. Present your ticket for validation upon entry to the club so you do not forget to get your stamp before you leave.
If you experience trouble with the validator at the garage exit, please look carefully at the machine; there is a phone key pad and signage directing you through an auto-dialer system, through which the parking garage management may assist you.
As directed on the sign, please dial *1#, and if you do not receive an answer, move on to *2#. If you do not receive an answer, dial *3#. By following the sequential order, you will eventually reach the assigned parking garage manager on duty, who will ask you a series of questions in attempt to assist you and may activate the gate release remotely, if needed.
