Hundreds of S. Florida Locals Experience Improved Fitness, Health Thanks to Delray's SloBody

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - June 2, 2014 - PRLog -- It has been one full year since Seattle-transplants Kirk Slobody and Janine Tiede opened their first SloBody – conditioning infused yoga™ (http://slobody.com/) – location in Delray Beach with the promise of changing both the perception of yoga and modern day fitness. SloBody – which Strengthens, Lengthens, and Opens the Body – offers students intensity without injury through personalized, hands-on instruction by experienced trainers. Hundreds of students – the majority baby boomers with aches and pains and hurting, aging bodies – have already benefited from the SloBody program.

SloBody will celebrate its one year anniversary just as it did its grand opening back in June of 2013 – with a complimentary class open to the public and meet and greet. The event will take place at 209 NE 5^th Terrace in Delray Beach on Saturday, June 7, 2014 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. The free yoga class will take place at 9:45 AM. The celebration will include food and drinks provided by Fit Food Express, Olive Taste of Delray, and health coach Pamela Higgins (http://www.totalhealthcounseling.com/); one-time offers and specials at SloBody; and raffle prizes from Whole Foods, lululemon, The Olive Taste of Delray (http://www.theolivetasteofdelray.com/), Fit Food Express (http://www.fitfoodexpress.com/), Total Health Counseling (http://www.totalhealthcounseling.com/), SloBody, and more.

Co-owners Slobody and Tiede will also introduce SloBody’s new “Kick Start” program, a 28-day mindbody fitness and nutrition program, which launches July 1, 2014. The program includes the following:

·         20 SloBody classes in 28 days

·         Personal exercise journal

·         Consultation with the SloBody team

·         Baseline testing and results tracking

·         Take-home workouts and routines

·         28-day nutrition plan, shopping list and support designed by health coach Pamela Higgins, owner of Total Health Counseling.

A limited number of spots will be available at a steep discount for those that sign up during the event. Since opening in June 2013, SloBody has helped countless class participants improve their posture, get stronger, feel better, and improve their overall health.

The SloBody May 2014 client of the month Ilene Clark says the following: “Since starting classes [at SloBody] I’ve lowered my blood pressure, it’s made me sleep better, I have more energy, and I’m able to move easier. I have gotten stronger and firmer around my middle. I’ve noticed my arms are stronger. My friends’ have even noticed a difference in my arms and I’ve developed muscles I’ve never had before and I have more stamina and endurance.”

About the SloBody® Method
SloBody – conditioning infused yoga™ – is a trademarked workout method that strengthens, lengthens and opens your body to its full potential and range of motion. SloBody introduces a one of a kind strength conditioning regimen (squats, lunges, core work, push-ups) and combines them with stress-combating yoga postures and efficient breathing for a workout that builds muscle, self-awareness, balance, flexibility, and improved mobility. The SloBody teaching method, which has been utilized as a training method by corporations such as Starbucks, Bank of America, Nike, the Seattle Police SWAT Team, and the Washington Athletic Club, is highly influenced by years of experience in the fitness industry. Noticing a lack of breaking down movements and/or providing alternative options for the injured or fitness novices in other group exercise classes, the SloBody method was formed. Add Morikami and Spanish River Track Team if you think something local would be good here.

SloBody is a member of the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce. Learn more at www.SloBody.com.
