The Get Trim sessions will meet on Saturday mornings from 10:30am – Noon.  The cost is $300 for the entire 6 week session.

Sessions will meet 6/16, 6/23, 6/30, take a week off for the holiday, and start back 7/14, 7/21, & finish on 7/28.

Don’t forget, space is limited to 10 people.  Spots are secured on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Reserve your spot ASAP!

Summertime is almost here, are you ready to shine?

Most of us know what foods we “should” and “should not” be eating, but so many of us have trouble losing weight. If you would like to change your relationship to food, join Health Coach Emily Karl in a six-week series. Each session is an hour and half and includes the following topics:

•  Why We Eat
•  Mindful Eating
•  Crowding Out
•  Whole & Unprocessed Foods
•  Grocery Field Trip
•  Small Changes for Lasting Improvements

Sessions begin in June. Space is limited.

Contact Coach Emily for more information or to reserve your spot. 

“If pressed to far when stretching, the muscles and tendons will further tighten negating the stretch and possibly causing injury. Take the body to a place where a strong sensation is felt without pain in order to lengthen and loosen muscles.”

Coach Emily teaches the “Get Limber” sessions at our river road location Tuesday and Thursdays at noon and Friday evenings at 5:30pm.  She is also available for private sessions by appointment.  Feel free to contact her directly (emilynkarl@gmail.com) for more information or to schedule a private session.

Begining tomorrow (4/3) we are starting a stretching class called “Get Limber”.  These classes meet Tuesday/Thursdays at noon and are free to all existing members.  Come join our new instructor Emily Karl and learn how to stretch out properly.  We hope to see several smiling faces tomorrow.

We also have some great news for our St. Matthews group members.  Effective immediately, your $125 monthly fee now includes access to all sessions at the River road facility.  That’s correct, you did read that right.  It’s pretty simple, for $125/month, you can now have unlimited access to both facilities.  That goes for all of you River road members as well.  You could have unlimited access to both facilities for $125/month.  WOW, what a great deal.

This is our way of saying “Thanks” to our existing members that have continued to support us with a constant flow of referrals.  KEEP THEM COMING!!!

Have a great evening!

Your friendly TS Staff

In my world,
The water is cold,
The wind is hard,
And the road never ends.

In my world,
There are no losers.
Only competitors
still on their way,
And spectators
waiting to be inspired.

In my world,
Victory is not weighed in gold,
But in determination and courage.

In my world,
There are no boundaries,
No limits,
There is no end.
Every day is the last day of my life,
And the first.

In my world,
The word “can’t” does not exist,
And nothing is impossible.

What a great excuse to get everybody together.  I know several people that have competed in this race on various teams and have enjoyed their stories.  What a great way to get the real scoop on one of the world’s toughest endurance events.  WHO’S IN????

We are hearing a lot of buzz in the cycling community about this event, which is now also a fundraiser for your local Bicycling for Louisville advocacy group.

Advance tickets for the event are still on sale for $11 at www.imathlete.com/events/bicycledreams. On the day of the show, tickets will be $15.

Here too is a Facebook event link to remind people about the show: http://www.facebook.com/events/241859039231513/

60 Day Fitness Challenge

Dear fellow runners:

This year The Training Studio, as part of our miniMarathon program, is partnering with Fred’s Team to support the Frederick Law Olmsted Parks.

I am encouraging miniMarathon runners with The Training Studio to sign up for Fred’s Team. I know most of you have spent time in these beautiful parks walking, running, cycling, pushing your children on a swings, having a family picnic, or simply driving through the scenic landscapes.  These urban parks are our original health clubs, home to many sports fields and facilities, and play a vital role in protecting the health of our citizens and community. By signing up you will agree to help raise funds to take care of our parks, including projects like restoring trails, planting thousands of trees, building playgrounds, removing invasive vines, restoring park structures. This wonderful system of parks is one of the best things about living in Louisville.

If you raise $625.00 the fee you paid to participate in The Training Studio miniMarathon program will be reimbursed to you. Each member of Fred’s Team will have their own webpage to help with fundraising. I promise, raising funds is much easier than running 13.1 miles. Olmsted Parks Conservancy will help provide you with all the help you need to reach your goal. In addition, Heine Brothers Coffee and Vint Coffee will match all donations made to Fred’s Team dollar for dollar (up to $5000.00).

Support the parks you love! Go the extra mile! Join Fred’s Team today!

Sign up for Fred’s Team here.

If you have any questions call Susan Ward at Olmsted Parks Conservancy at 502-802-0667. She can also be reached at susan.ward@olmstedparks.org.
