Greetings!
With
summer at our doorstep, temptation is around the corner. What do I mean? You
know the feeling when you've been shuttling the kids from the park, to the
pool, to a play date to realize that everyone's starving, it's 7:00pm, you
haven't had time to make dinner and you're too exhausted to even think about it
- do you cave and go for the Happy Meal? Welcome to summer.
We all
cave sometimes, and it's not worth beating ourselves up for it. We just have to
try and stay as committed to eating well as we have all year. The great reward
is this season offers us so many fresh fruits and vegetables, many which are
grab and go, that with a little planning we can make nutrition easy.
But
summer isn't all about food - it's about fun, too. We can play with our kids,
join them in a game of Frisbee or tag, and take advantage of the many outdoor
activities available to us. It's also the perfect time to revamp your workout -
try some exercises you've never done - or just amp your current ones.
Active will be busier than ever with our usual
classes and sessions as well Dave's A3
program for your teen athlete and boot camp, as well as our private or small group pilates program (scroll
down to learn more). Bring a friend or family member to your workouts for extra
motivation. As many of you who have experienced our programs know...we deliver
fun, effective and creative workouts. They are tailored to the individual, yet
designed to be done in a group as well. What makes us different? We care about
the individual and want you to get results. For more information on our A3
program (starting June 7), pilates program and a healthy new recipe, keep reading!! You decide - "Do
you want summer to get the best of you or will you make the most of summer?"
Sincerely,
Debi Vincent

Small Group Pilates Classes
|
|  Two Free Private sessions - How?
"Are you ready to show your abs in
a bikini?" "Do you want to improve your golf
game?" Our
Pilates program currently offers one to one, duo or small group training.
Whether you want to come by yourself, bring a group, or let us help you become
a part of a group, we can make it happen. Our small group pilates program is a
great economical way to begin, and it offers accountability because of the
"team mentality." For 3 months, twice a week, you and 3-6 other participants
will enjoy the new look and feel of your body as you work your core muscles
with both the mat and apparatus exercises of classical pilates. Bring your
group or let us know what days and times you can workout and we will put together
one for you. You can also drop into our scheduled classes if you give us 24
hours notice or better yet, organize a group, and in return we will offer you 2 free private sessions to say "thank
you for your referral!" Our Pilates program offers something for
everyone. Read the rest of the article at Active Body and Health

Active Fitness Challenge
|
|  The Results are in!
The
results of the very first Active Fitness Challenge are in, and they are
terrific! The team from the Learning Tree Center in Annapolis
had a great experience and celebrated their success at a party in our
studio.
Within 6 weeks, the group had a total loss of 35 lbs and 45.5 inches. The participants all felt that the challenge was a great success; so
much so,
that they have signed up for another 6
week challenge. This time they've selected a group to challenge them.
Great
job, team! We are so proud of you. If you
and your co-workers want to be part of our new workplace health and
fitness
motivation program call us at 410.518.6566 or email us at
debivincent.com. Say
that you want to compete in the Active Fitness Challenge! |
Shari Warner is our WINNER!
