DOIN' IT UP: Sassy Style

Hey.

What's your life going to be like when you're in your 60s? 70s? 80s and beyond? Our bodies are aging each and every day and since nobody really likes to ponder that thought, we decided to host Central Texas' First Annual Senior K Walk presented by 70-year-old personal trainer Jody Kelly of StrengthMobile, LLC.

We are SO glad we did.

It's Party Time

Do you now or did you come by to visit us and work out at South Congress Athletic Club at any point in time in 2007 and up to now? Well, you are very special to us... ESPECIALLY since we're now celebrating our first year anniversary. You have made 2007 a special year for us and we want to say thanks! If you have never been by, then this is the perfect time. It's not your ordinary gym party - that's for sure.

Yes, it's true, we're a small and scrappy neighborhood gym that loves our members, clients, neighbors and guests. We care about feeling good and...dare we say, looking good and we want to stay optimally healthy so that we can do the things that matter most to us in our daily lives. With that being said, we are having an Appreciation Party. We're very lucky to have folks who believe and trust in us and we want to make sure that we always make time to show our gratitude. Here are the party specs:
