AVON Snap Fitness News from Michele

Snap Fitness Avon Club Update! Welcome to February! January 4th marked 2 years of my ownership of Snap Avon and I am proud to say that we finished the month with a record number of new memberships. I couldn't be more proud that many familiar faces from the past came back and re-joined us...or as I say, "Came back home." I have decided to take on a more active role at the club along with my new partner, Vassilios, whom many of you have already met. Vassilios (or just "V") brings an extensive history of martial arts knowledge and training along with a creative background as a professional musician and business manager. Vassilios and I, along with our elite personal training staff, hope to continue the momentum of January's success with the launch of new classes, programs, workshops, and so much more. Interested in joining? Come in during our staffed hours as follows: Monday-Thursday 10am - 6pm, Friday 10am - 3pm, Saturday 9am - 1pm, *or by appointment FREE ENROLLMENT for all past members who re-join by February 28th! We miss you! READ MORE »

DRIVEN Launches March 3rd "Surpassing boundaries is what we do and who we are at Snap Fitness Avon." Have you wondered what you could accomplish with your health and fitness if you had the right tools and expertise at hand? Do you want to know what you are capable of? SO DO I. Introducing the new Michele Approved DRIVEN Program at Snap Fitness Avon beginning March 3rd! As many of you know I am a 15 year veteran as a 3x professional physique athlete, fitness competition coach, stage posing choreographer, personal trainer, and nutrition consultant. Some might remember seeing me prepare for competitions and I'll never forget the time our former staff member (and now head college field hockey coach) Jessica Bergen created the "Good Luck" video compilation of Snap Members wishing me luck on the Pro World stage in Toronto, ON (see link below). Many asked me how I transformed my body naturally, how I was able to push myself with such intensity at every workout, and WHY I did it. The answer is simple: PASSION. For the first time I am taking my passion for doing the impossible and implementing an exclusive program at Snap Avon designed for men and women of all ages wanting to find out what they are capable of. The Michele Approved DRIVEN Program is an ongoing monthly program with three enrollment options based on your level of commitment (enroll any time!). At the minimum plan to attend targeted classes 3x a week, monthly fitness challenges for prizes, and monthly goal tracking via body measurements. For those who choose the "Ultimate Change Program" you will receive 2 personal training sessions with me in addition to all the other extra components. Do the work; stay committed; see the results. Call or stop by the club for complete details and to enroll today.

The Snap Fitness/Michele ApprovedTM Grocery List Launches Version #2 at Canton ShopRite Supermarket!

After four hours of set-up and about 200 shelf tags later the second version of the Michele ApprovedTM grocery list launched this past weekend at ShopRite supermarket in Canton.  The original list launched a few months ago and caused quite a stir in the community since no one has ever seen anything like it before.  A stanchion sign with Michele's picture, information, and a description of her collaboration with ShopRite supermarket greets you.  The opposite side of the stanchion sign is an enlarged directory of the custom grocery list that is categorized by food group and aisle location.  Individual handouts of the grocery list are also at the door for shoppers to grab and use throughout the store where custom shelf tags help identify all the products on the list.

Version two of the Michele ApprovedTM Snap Fitness grocery list includes an updated "look" along with many new and exciting additions to the grocery list.  Some of Michele's favorite new items on her list are in a new section called "Featured Super Foods."  Michele and one of her elite staff of personal trainers, Robert Smith Jr., will be performing in-store demonstrations on featured products on the new list that might be unfamiliar to many of the public.  Upcoming in-store demonstrations will be on the following days and times:

November 9th from 2-5pm: Kale Chips
November 15th from 4-7pm: Go Raw Brand Super Food Snacks
November 19th from 2-5pm: Pumpkin
November 26th from 2-5pm: Chia Seeds
December 6th from 4-7pm:  Ezekiel Bread/Tortillas

December 21st from 2-5pm:  Amaranth
December 31st from 2-5pm:  Sweet potatoes
January 4rd 2014 from 2-5pm:  Quinoa

Please join us in the store at any of our demonstrations!  Stay tuned for more in store presence as Michele will be hosting some upcoming meet-and-greets so people can learn more about the WHY behind the creation of the list.  Let us know what you think of the list by posting on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/snapfitnessavonct -- and be sure to "LIKE" and follow ShopRite on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/josephfamilymarkets) as well!
