The Ageless elves have been working hard over the past few weeks to make this Christmas season extra special for our members. Apparently, quite a few of you were on Santa’s nice list this year. Surprising, right?
So just what have our vertically challenged hooligans been working on for December? Quite a bit. We have new classes, a free Zumba workout with Dimmy, and a handful of events for children of all ages. Plus, our 12 Days of FITmas contest starts December 1st. And best of all, the renovations in Gillespie should be done, and the renovations in Staunton should be starting!
25 Days OF FITmas Challenge at Gillespie and Staunton
Get back into the swing of things. The challenge is simple. Visit the gym at least 12 times between December 1st and December 21st and receive a limited edition Ageless Love – Laugh -Learn -Lift. t-shirt at our special Christmas workouts on Monday December 21st.
When: Starts on December 1st and ends on December 21st at 12:01 am
Where: Ageless – Gillespie and Staunton
How to Play: Register at the front desk before November 28th. We’ll add your name to Santa’s list. All you have to do is add a sticker next to your name after every workout. Sophisticated, I know, but if there is one magical thing about this time of year, it’s Christmas’ ability to awaken our inner child. So why not use the same attendance chart we used in 1st grade.
Your FITmas Present: Get 12 stars, and get a limited edition Love-Laugh-Learn-Lift t-shirt.
Zumba Night
Zumba has been such a success at Ageless in Staunton that Dimmy, our dancing sensation, is going to offer a FREE class on Wednesday, December 2nd at 7pm in Gillespie for members and non-members. If he gets the response he’s hoping for, it will be a permanent class in January. So please spread the word. And if you’re on the fence about, just talk to some of the Staunton members. They love it!

Glokickathon
We love GloKick so much that we are going to dedicate two hours on a Friday evening for dancing, snacks and some Christmas fun. The event is $25 to attend and will take place in Staunton on Friday, December 4 from 7-9pm.
Guests will receive a free longsleeve shirt after paying their registration for the event and are asked to bring a “white elephant” gift (under $10 in value) and a snack for the class to try during a break. Hopefully some of you are better in the kitchen than others!
PowerBox
Pete’s offering a new class on Monday nights at 5:30pm in Gillespie called PowerBox. It’s the perfect blend of boxing, music, and body weight exercises – all done in the dark. It’s fun. It’s exhilarating. And most importantly, it’s a GREAT workout for all ages and fitness levels. Best of all, his first class on December 7th at 5:30pm in Gillespie is FREE for members and non-members.
