Where We Workout

Where We Workout

We are located in picturesque Delray Beach, Florida, a charming seaside town nestled in between Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale. It provides beautiful parks and beaches for our outdoor workouts. One of our mottos is “Get out of the gym and into the outdoors”! We love getting our sweat on outside in the fresh air. Is there anything better than a workout with ocean views, sounds of the waves or watching boats drive by?

If you’re considering coming to one of our fitness retreats, you’re probably wondering where exactly we hold our workouts. It’s one of the biggest questions that we get before people sign up.

5 Ways To Use Honey In Your Diet

Do you use honey in your diet? I love it for health benefits but I also like to use it as a natural sweetener. I use it as a sweetener in baking recipes if it’s an easy swap, as a substitute for syrup on the occasion that I have pancakes or waffles and even in yogurt with granola. It’s also a great sweetener in protein smoothies and drinks like tea, iced tea or coffee.

What To Pack For Your Fitness Retreat

You’ve signed up for a fitness retreat (Hopefully, it’s with us!) and you’re probably really excited. You should be! Embarking on an active vacation is a fantastic thing. It’s a journey all in itself. It includes lots of movement (some you’ve done before and some you might not have), hard work, making new friends or acquaintances, pushing yourself to the limit, spa treatments, down time, fresh and delicious food and a snuggly bed to lie down in at night and recover from the day’s events.

If you’re like most people, you booked your trip roughly 1 month in advance. You’ve taken off work and maybe even arranged child care if you have kids. You’re planning your time away and now it comes down to what to bring. How do you even pack for a fitness retreat? What to wear?

I love essential oils because they’re so versatile! I use them for cleaning. I diffuse them in my home to benefit from the oils in the air but also because they smell so good! I also use them topically on my skin for certain reasons. However you use them, they’re fantastic for so many reasons!
