Congratulations Sommer & Alex!

Pardon the delay, but there is some important news to share! Sommer's second son made his debut on October 18th. Graham Thomas Green enjoyed his stay in the womb so much, he still wasn't ready to come out, even after being 2 weeks overdue. But, he finally did. He was 8 lbs., 20 inches, blonde and healthy. He and his brother Fischer are getting to know each other and a bond is quickly forming. Congratulations to Sommer! Look to see her back teaching in the new year!

Welcome Betsy & Megan!

We are excited to welcome two new instructors to our team! They both bring dance and teaching experience to the table and we're enjoying training with them already. To let you know a little more about them, here are some highlights:

Betsy has been attending Dance Attack classes on & off for more than 10 years. Knowing so many of our routines, she's excited to polish them up and teach them for real. She originally went to college to study dance and still carries that passion with her today. She is also well-known for her yoga classes and currently teaches yoga on Wednesday nights at Tioga.

Megan is new to Dance Attack, but is learning fast. She enjoys class and especially the energy that the members bring to it. She teaches the Ballet specialty classes offered through Custom Fit small group training and also works on the floor staff at the Women's Center. She currently dances with the Danscompany of Gainesville and last year took on the lead role of Dorothy in their production of the Wiz.

Please help us welcome these ladies as you see them in class and look for them to start teaching with us over the next few months!

New Routine & New Instructors!

We have a new routine we'll be introducing in Sandi's class Thursday, September 22nd! In addition, our instructor team is expanding. Come meet your new instructors this night as well!

Here's the title and artist of the new routine song:

Class Changes for the New Year

As of January 10th, we will no longer be offering the Monday 5:30pm and Wednesday 4:30pm Dance Attack classes. In place of these classes, the schedule will be as follows:

Monday, 5:30pm - Body Combat (w/ Lindsey)
Wednesday, 5:00pm - Abs & Glutes (w/ Debbie Lee)
Wednesday, 5:30pm - Body Combat (w/ Lindsey)

We are scaling back our Dance Attack classes to accommodate the current availability of our instructor staff. This includes making room for Lindsey to focus her teaching efforts on Body Combat. Lindsey will continue to sub Dance Attack when she can. We wish her great success with Body Combat! If you haven't tried this choreographed kick-boxing class yet, give it a try. Also, come see us in Dance Attack on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays!
