A Note from Keith
 Congratulations to you!
In 2010, Pura Vida was chosen as Best health Club in Denver by 5280 Magazine. At the time we were still defining who we were or, more aptly put, who we wanted to be. We knew we had a gorgeous space with world-class interiors and unique and inviting design. What we were building at the time of the award in 2010 was an overall experience that truly spoke of J. Madden's original concept of "Pura Vida". For those of you who know J. (and frankly, who doesn't?!) you immediately understand that his passion for excellence is real and profound. He dreams big, yet understands that ideas are great but only if they can be executed flawlessly. As a management team, we were surprised to receive the award so early into our growth. We were in the process of defining who we were and making some changes to reflect the market and economic environment and to better communicate our vision to our members. We were still perfecting our execution and delivery. To say we didn't feel like we deserved the award would be inaccurate. Who doesn't want a pat on the back?! But frankly, I personally felt that we had some growing to do and some fine-tuning to prove our worth.
Fast forward to July 2012, and again Pura Vida was named Best Health Club in Denver. This time around I did feel that we were ready to receive the award. We spent the last four years taking the very simple concept of fitness and operating a health club and tried to put a spin on it that reflects the idea of what Pura Vida means: Pure Life, Whole Life...balance and a deep appreciation for good health and good friends. I am fortunate to work with a group of people who believe that life is too short to not appreciate those around you. As a team, each one of us has the same vision of what Pura Vida is and what Pura Vida can be. Although we experience occasional set-backs (the steam rooms being one...they open this week!) we try to move forward knowing that we have done our best to get through the problem. Ultimately, I am confident in saying that I am proud of our accomplishments and that we each work very hard to insure that your experience at the club is unlike what you normally expect from a health club.
Finally, I thank each of you...and congratulate each of you...for being a part of Denver's best club. At the end of the day, we do what we do because we enjoy sharing our dreams and ideas of better living with you. And you kindly reciprocate with your own ideas and dreams . Thank you for sharing with all of us and thank you for making Pura Vida what we always dreamed it could be.
In health,
Keith

GROUP EX
INSPIRE A Movement Workshop with Jonathan  Berry
Saturday, August 11th
2-3pm Inspire is an exploration of the body in which participants are invited to engage in deep mindfulness, a challenging range of movements and whole body strength.
Inspire combines movement from Capoeira (the Brazilian martial art/dance) with the ancient arts of Yoga, Meditation and Tai Chi to produce a free-form body-awareness program that will enhance your physical health and mental well-being.
Members: Complimentary, Guests: $30
RIPPED IS CHANGING!
 What better time to turn the heat up on the Ripped format than August?
Look for the new 30 minute Ripped and Tabata Ripped formats on the group programming schedule this month.
In June, the first Ripped format was released with the intention to introduce the TRX Rip Trainer in a way that would help members and participants better understand how to move with an horizontal asymmetrical load. August will bring an explosive difference to the Ripped class formats including intervals with options of plyometric progressions, high intensity cardiovascular intervals, isolated core work, and a mixture of not only TRX Rip Trainer exercises but also floor work that may include the use of other fitness props and tools.
Give it a try, it will be the best spent 30 minutes of your day!
CARDIO BALLET IS CHANGING!
 Look for the new and improved Cardio Ballet under the name Allegro Ballet starting in August. "Allegro" is defined in Italian as, "Fast. Performed at a quick, sharp tempo." This class will not only tone and sculpt you into that beautiful lean dancer's body you have been looking for, but it will also incorporate quick and fast paced intervals of balletic moves and cardio intervals to burn those extra calories and rev up your metabolism.

But how do you breathe? Are you even aware of your breath if you aren't trying to catch it? You might feel your chest tighten when you run faster; if you get the wind knocked out of you, you might hyperventilate. Notice what happens when you stress out - do your breaths shorten? In most cases, we barely pay attention or focus on it - we just do it. Why is breathing so important outside of the obvious reasons? When breathing well, it can regulate and revitalize your body, your energy levels and your mind. Think about the pace of our everyday lives. We tend to take quick short, shallow breaths. Whether from stress, from fatigue or anxiety, our bodies are tense. Bad breathing affects our posture, the way we sit and stand and that affects that way we breathe. SIGH. Try this simple exercise to find and focus on your breath. Sit or lie down comfortably and place a hand on your abdomen and one on your chest. Inhale deeply through your nose and into your abdomen until you fill your lungs with air. Pause for a second or two and then exhale slowly through your mouth, completely empty your lungs. Try to focus on the sound and the feeling of taking these complete breaths. Repeat. It might take awhile, but with everything practice makes perfect.

DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE MIGHTY AVOCADO
 Eat up! They're good for you and wont' make you fat!
The Avocado Detail:
· Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fats, heart healthy fats, which are easily burned for energy.
· They have more than twice as much potassium as a banana
· They have strong anti-inflammatory properties, and
· Are one of the safest fruits to buy conventionally (as opposed to organic) because its thick shell protects the inner fruit from building up pesticides.
· Avocados are one of my favorite snacks. Simply add some fresh lemon and a little bit of sea salt, and you have a perfect snack!
CREAMY AVOCADO CILANTRO DRESSING (eatingwell.com)
* 1/2 ripe avocado
* 3/4 cup packed fresh cilantro
* 1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
* 2 scallions, chopped
* 1 clove garlic, quartered
* 1 tablespoon lime juice
* 1/2 teaspoon sugar
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
Place avocado, cilantro, yogurt, scallions, garlic, lime juice, sugar and salt in a blender. Pulse until smooth. Enjoy!
