4th Annual PUR-A-THLON
Friday, May 10th 2013
6am - 6pm
Please join us in honoring one of our favorite nonprofit organizations - Brent's Place.
You will have the chance to pedal hard, dance, sculpt and strike a pose for a great cause!
Two year old Oscar - better known as Ozzie, moved into Brent's Place on December 17th with his big sister, Gracie, and parents Dan and Robin. Just one month prior, Ozzie was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma, the same rare muscle cancer Brent had more than twenties years ago. Traveling from Durango, CO, Ozzie's family relocated to Denver shortly after his major surgery in November, so that he would be able to receive 6 to 8 weeks of radiation at Children's Hospital Colorado. Ozzie finished his last radiation this week and will be home for the first day of February! He still has more than 8 months of chemotherapy treatment, which he can receive at home, but will back to stay at Brent's Place for his scans beginning in March.
Ozzie's mother, Robin shared,
"Brent's Place is fantastic beyond words. We hate why we're here, but we love being here." Thank you to everybody who made this place a reality."
Your support of the 2013 PUR-A-Thlon will allow families to stay at Brent's Place and heal while undergoing and recovering from treatment. Registration will begin shortly in the New Year. For additional information, to donate or volunteer visit

A Note from Keith
 Another January in the bag!
Now that we are a month into the new year, I do hope that the resolution crowd is on-track and conquering the goals set at the new year. We as a team are available (willing and able!) to help motivate, make suggestions, crack the whip...whatever you need. We take pride in working with our members. Your success is our success, so don't be bashful in asking for help!
I am trusting that the new cardio equipment has made your visits more enjoyable. I am pleased that many of you have personally sent me messages saying that it has made a difference in your workouts. I'm afraid the same cannot be said for the spin bikes, and we are just as frustrated as you are. Look for brand new bikes to replace what is currently in the studio soon.
We have named the new, expanded studio on the 4th floor the Ethos Studio (thank you J!). Ethos, meaning the spirit of a culture or community as seen in its beliefs and aspirations, seems to capture the feel of this beautiful space as well as the small group classes that will be scheduled soon. Frankly we are still in the planning process and making some big decisions, but I do want you to be kept in the loop. Think mindful movement, breath and awareness classes, meditation, private small group yoga. Its exciting! Keep an eye out for additional information on the structure and format of this studio this month.
Just as exciting is The Pura Vida Underground. This studio will be the polar opposite of the Ethos Studio: Think hard-core-get-your-sweat-on training in small group format. Raw, edgy, real. High intensity functional movement. It's going to be amazing! Look for the Underground to open in the current MAT space this Spring.
Studio 1 will be undergoing some minor construction to remove the closet / dressing room on the south wall. This change will increase the available square footage and allow for more people to get involved with the space.
Lockers are being added (as I type) on the 4th floor next to the yoga studio. These will be keypad lockers and available to all you yogis and yoginis. Please use these if you are not planning on using the full locker room amenities. It should save you time and hassle so that you can get into the studio and get your Omm on.
I'm on a roll here! What else have we been working on to make the membership experience better?
Nora Salas, who is the Housekeeping Director, is now with us full time which is a blessing. She has been hiring staff to accommodate the busy hours in each locker room. Her insistence on a club that is spotless shows each day.
Linden Sevrens was hired as our full-time Maintenance Director. As you are well aware, we have had some hiccups in the past year with mechanical issues that were beyond our control. Linden is here on-site to make sure everything is running smoothly. Say hi to him when you see him around the club. He looks exactly like Dennis Weaver in McCloud, minus the cowboy hat. (Man, am I dating myself!).
As you can see, all of us at Pura Vida have been busy to make sure that 2013 is an amazing year for you as a member. New equipment, new studios and new support staff. Thank you to all who have been with us from the start. And welcome to all of you who are just now joining our community.
Onward!

HOW IS YOUR DIGESTION? Robin Hutchinson
Master Nutrition  Therapist
There are a couple of things that go wrong with digestion, and we see them A LOT... Food breakdown problems, leaky-gut (nutrient malabsorption) and unbalanced gut flora are common, and we use food as well as some great products to alleviate the problems. Do you have any of the following? Constipation, bloating, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, itchy skin, hives, rash, acne, mental fogginess, joint pain, food allergies, food intolerance or any other unexplained weirdness? Xymogen's digestive enzymes help you break down your food in the stomach. Apex Energetic's Repairvite heals our digestive lining, helping you use your nutrients from food, and Apex's Strengtia is a medical-grade high dose probiotic, which provides support to your immune system and supports beneficial bacteria for good bowel health. Please feel free to connect with Pura Vida's holistic nutritionists about your digestion. A little bit of support can be life-changing, eliminating nagging symptoms, so you can focus on good energy and health.
We welcome questions and inquires. Contact us at robinh@puravidaclub.com and sarak@puravidaclub.com. It is a pleasure to guide and inspire you to better health and wellness!

Thank you all for your patience with the incredible amount of difficulties we have had with our Spinning bikes and computers in their installation late last year. We have been in touch with the manufacturer's customer service team for several weeks reviewing and discussing the issues we were experiencing. A number of repairs and parts were attempted.
