Miss FIT

This is the first Thanksgiving Eve since 2003 I’m not prepping for a major workout in the morning.
I’m not buying fun snacks for participants.
I’m not moving members off waitlists.
I’m not coordinating playlists with instructors.
I’m not spacing out equipment.
I’m not dividing up shirts by sizes.
I’m not trying to get to sleep early.
I’m not getting ready for my most favorite event of the year.

This past Sunday, for about an hour, I thought of pulling off some miracle to make it happen for tomorrow. However, I knew it was just a bandaid so I wouldn’t have to feel this right now. I also know that part of healing is going through the emotions. My Thanksgiving is going to be very different tomorrow.

I will think fondly of all the opportunities we were able to be together for such an incredible morning.
I will remember the jokes, the pictures, the thankful thoughts at the end, and most importantly, all of you. 💗

Over the past eight years, we have shown the power that happens when women come together time and time again. This past campaign was no different. The fight and strength in every single one of you is inspiring and reaffirms that Miss FIT has had a huge impact in lives everywhere. Thank you so much for your determination and dedication to this “brand” that has become a family.

At this time, we do need to close our doors. However, if there’s anything we’ve learned, the physical structure isn’t what creates community. It is the connections and relationships we’ve built that no four walls could hold in.

The power of the Miss FIT is a force that isn’t going anywhere. It exists in each of you and is yours to share with women everywhere. Remember, we may have created the space and led the workouts but, YOU showed up and did the work. YOU always had the power in you. Sometimes, we just need a little help or encouragement to pull it out. Now, it’s your turn to do that for the women in your life. Till we meet again…See You Later!

*All GoFundMe donations will be refunded. Thank you so much for your support. It means more than you could ever know.

Michelle states 'why' Miss FIT matters to her. Exercise does so much for our physical health but, we cannot leave out the incredible benefits for our emotional and mental health. We all need to be moving now, more than ever.

Help Michelle and all of our Miss FITs keep this incredible community that fosters overall health and wellbeing.

Highlighting one of our BIGGEST cheerleaders, Colleen! Rocking pink and black from the beginning, Colleen immediately became family when she walked through the doors in Caplans. She may be in Colorado now, but, we know a piece of her heart is definitely with us here on Main Street. She still works out with us virtually and is happy to tell EVERYONE why they should become a Miss FIT!

To help Colleen keep moving with her favorite tribe, head over to our GoFundMe on this LAST day of our campaign!

Patty has been with us on our journey since the beginning on route 40 and through ALL of our locations. She may have started in ZUMBA, but she was fiercely showing up in the other workouts as well, all while encouraging everyone else to do the same.

Help Patty keep enjoying these workouts and connections, as well as, all of our other Miss FITs!

Today is the LAST day for our campaign to "Save the Gym." As a team, we know what an amazing place and community we have here. The BEST is hearing it from the members and those impacted by it.

Jess Baligush kicks off our Miss FIT stories today. One thing we LOVE about our location is this incredible town we get to call home. Because Main Street is an "experience," members often find themselves shopping at the boutiques, getting their hair done, or grabbing food and/or drinks at one of the restaurants. This is also a way we meet future members, like this time at La Palapa Grill & Cantina
