August Wellness Priorities

I want to welcome our newest Wellness Directors, Cesar Martinez from Aliso Viejo. Cesar was the part time Fitness Director and has been promoted to full time Wellness Director. Among the many things going on in Wellness, here are a few of the biggest things going on this month.
Member's First
We introduced a new element to our Members First integration program in July with the recommendation of a Group Fit class for the new member. We know members who take Group Fit classes see great results, meet more people, and are more likely to stay members.
FitQuest
FitQuest is our fitness member incentive program for the third quarter. The program was designed by the Wellness Directors and it's based on the popular Cross Fit program. It would be great for associates to participate and be able to talk to members about it. It's free to you and members as part of our Get More campaign. The program starts August 15th, get involved - join the Quest. On a side note Helen Papas, WC Wellness Director, has been competing in national Cross Fit competitions, so she played a big role in designing this program.
Group Fit
At all our properties we are working hard to stay on the cutting edge of what's happening in the group fitness world. This year we have introduced many new class including a mixed martial arts class in ORG, Bar Ballet in WC, a couple crazy new yoga classes in GV, and Group Groove coming to PLS this month to name just a few. We are always looking for the next cool thing, so if you see something interesting let me or your Wellness Director know.
Next week the Group Fit Directors and I will be at the IDEA Conference looking for cool new classes.
