Making Time Count – Together

admin — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:49:35 +0000

If you’re a parent of young children, you understand how life can shift and the things you used to enjoy as a couple fade away for a time. For us, trips to the gym, evening walks and spontaneous day trips quickly became fond memories of another life.

And slowly, but surely, we put on that dreaded extra weight.

Fed up with having to buy new jeans every winter, Windy instead made a commitment to lose a few pounds by doing Zumba. The 2010 Fitness Challenge at Studio Z enabled her to solidify her goals and track her results. Since February, she has sweat and smiled off more than 20 pounds. It is truly amazing how having such a good time can yield such great results!

In July, Windy invited Greg to join her for BodyPump, a new class offered by Studio Z. Greg thought lifting a few weights would be an easy transition back to becoming fit. Little did he know he’d be flat on his back halfway through his first session and grimacing with sore muscles for the next five days. Thankfully, a few more sessions was all he needed to start feeling stronger and see encouraging results.

The daily challenges life brings to us have not subsided, but we’ve each made an individual commitment to our health. Studio Z has provided the landscape where we can succeed both as individuals and as a couple in our fitness goals. We are excited to explore new goals in the coming months ahead with the help of Studio Z and their accomplished team of instructors. Thank you Studio Z!

The Inches I’ve Lost Is Incredible

admin — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 19:26:28 +0000

My first day of Zumba was March 24, 2010. Reluctantly, I came with my daughter standing in the back row very nervous and extremely uptight about wiggling my everything in this room full of ladies that looked like they have been doing Zumba for years. The instructors make this workout so much fun. They always have a smile and fun music and routines.

I have not lost a lot of pounds, but the inches that I have lost is incredible! I have more energy and sleep much better at night. I have now added Body Pump and I am loving this as well. This class (WOW) sure gets you in the legs.

Thank you Studio Z for all of your energy and smiles!
