A Message From Keith
February! The month of love..the month of the healthy heart!
We had a tremendous January with a wonderful group of new members who have decided to make Pura Vida a part of a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Welcome to the club! January also set records in terms of member participation in group classes and personal training. A healthy club is an active club and because of each of you, and our dedicated charter members, Pura Vida is a success! You will notice in March the new Studio One training area on the first floor of the club. Because the space was under-utilized, an entirely new training space is being developed. We will feature TRX, small group training and specialty programs and classes. This is a great amenity to Pura Vida and wonderful space to work with our talented trainers in a private setting. As we continue to refine the member experience at the club, we decided that it was time to create an entirely new concept in Spa. It is my pleasure to introduce Vital Spa at Pura Vida and along with the new concept, our new Spa Director, Noel Cockrel:
"It brings me great pleasure to introduce Vital Spa at Pura Vida. We have been given an amazing opportunity to restructure our philosophy and menu, which will ensure that we are the best wellness spa in town. We are committed to excellence and providing unparalleled guest service. Our team will strive to make a profound difference in your specific needs and overall experience. Vital Spa at Pura Vida is dedicated to finding the perfect balance between health and lifestyle. Our knowledgeable Spa professionals will help you to create a day designed around your personal well-being and complete rejuvenation of body, mind, and soul. It is imperative that we all take time out of our busy schedules to reset and realign our intention as we move forward in our daily life. We offer a variety of treatments that are designed to improve overall energy and strength, while polishing and reviving at the same time. We suggest pairing your treatment with one or more of our vital enhancements to indulge in the ultimate purifying experience and completely awaken the senses. An 80-minute deep tissue massage can be paired with a self-heating sea-weed mud placed along the spine to penetrate those areas where you are sore and help to relieve tension. Our menu offers a variety of enhancements that will enable you to customize the perfect spa service for your needs. Vital Spa and Pura Vida Fitness will improve your quality of life and bring you the release you need to bring you back to your center. I look forward to meeting each one of you and invite you to come in and experience a new lifestyle guided by necessity and personal attention." Positive healthy change continues to be a way of life for us at Pura Vida. Our goal is a happy and healthy member. We hope you enjoy the changes we have made for you.

Group Fitness INDO-ROW - IS YOUR SPLIT LEGIT CHALLENGE
Congratulations to our 2000-meter First Place finishers - Jen Helms (7:27) and Darin Heiter (6:50) Also, congrats to our other finalists that made it a great race: Jimmy Aspinwall 7:00 Alex Trowbridge 6:58 Brad Alger 7:09 Christine Thiabut 8:09 Jen Strailey 8:10 Jan Nelson 8:15 Thanks to all that participated in the pre-qualifying competition. Look for the next challenge coming soon. SMART ROW with Sara Kosick, Adrine Writer, Jen Rico, Adrian Wegeng Fridays at 11:30am
Trainer taught Indo-Row class. Each week you'll work with a different Personal Trainer, focusing on technique and proficiency. Train smarter, not harder.
NEW INDOOR CYCLING CLASS - CYCOLOGY
Mondays 6:45-7:45pm with Stacey Tuesdays 4:30-5:30pm with Jasmine Saturdays 8-9am with Jasmine
This cycle class integrates empowering mantras, affirming quotes, and positive intention as you release mood-enhancing endorphins. It's a workout for your body and your mind.
*Please note, in an effort to accommodate member requests, we will permit the usage of Bikes/Rowers while class (i.e. Indoor Rowing or Cycling) is in session. However, all individuals must acknowledge that no disruption of class is allowed (i.e. conversations with class participants or others, use of studio AV equipment, direct requests to the instructor in session, etc.). We hope that this new protocol will serve as a beneficial protocol for all. RESERVATION POLICY With the intention of providing an exceptional, semi-private class experience to our members and guests, we will continue to host limited participation classes with MoVe, Indoor Cycling, and Indo Row. Limiting the participation to 9 for MoVe and 15 for Indoor Cycling and Indo Row will give our instructors and coaches more of an opportunity to create a personal experience as opposed to an over-crowded class. Reservations will be accepted at Member Services on the 2nd floor. Reservations can be made within the 90 minutes prior to the start of class - either in person at the desk or over the phone. Reservations will only be accepted for the individual making it (i.e. members and guests cannot reserve a space for friends, colleagues, etc.). A reservation will be forfeited if the member/guest is not present at the start of class. Look for Schedule changes effective March 1st!
