Greetings!
I hope your fall is off to a great start! I have seen a lot of new and returning faces at Team Fit over the last week with the start of our Fall 2010 launching. It's always great to see the passion, excitement, and energy of so many people ready to make positive change. I love that attitude!
WE HAVE BIG NEWS! When I started Team Fit in 2006, my intent was to make an IMPACT on people from all walks of life; from the young and old, male and female, and within all fitness levels. The vision was to transform people's bodies, minds and emotions in a positive way. I call this PMA ~ positive, mental attitude.
As I always mention, fitness starts from within. You have to start with how you think of yourself on the inside in order to transform your outside. I am pleased to announce that we recently receive an amazing opportunity to reach out to another district in the Metro Detroit Area. STAC (Shelby Township Athletic Club) conveniently located at 23 Mile and Schoenherr Road will be another "home base" for Team Fit. Our fantastic Zumba program department, led by Jennifer Paczas, will begin in less than 2 weeks at this facility and will be offering FREE PROGRAMS the week of October 4th. Chantell, Christy, Jenn and Lindsay will be hosting classes (morning, evening and weekend) that fit into your busy day. Full Zumba schedules and discount pricing are now posted on the website and can be viewed by clicking here. TF will be building program offerings at STAC in the near future and the team is very excited to be part of this beautiful gym.
I am also very excited about other memorable events that are coming up within the next few months! As for now, I have to bite my tongue until the deal is "signed, sealed and delivered".
I want to thank my entire team of trainers for getting TF where it is today and I look forward to the future of how we can change the world one by one; by the attitude we bring to them everyday!
The TF Times has a ton of great information this month--check it out as well as get involved with our programs. My featured article this month is entitled, "Are You Listening?". Take the few minutes to not only read, but to take engage in this action. Make an "IMPACT" on someone's life TODAY! I look forward to connecting with you real soon.
Happy Training!

Are You Listening?
listen2
I recently read a quote that was just awesome. It said, "To the world you may be just one person...but to one person you may be the world." How powerful!
What I really like about this is how each of us everyday has the opportunity to be a "difference maker." Stay present with the person in front of you or on the other end of the phone. We're all busy and our minds are always racing. Sometimes it takes a conscious effort to be present with friends, colleagues, co-workers, family members, and strangers. But it's always worth it. Stop thinking about your next words or where you need to be. Start listening... Mind, body and heart.

As you strive to balance all that you do in a day (work, exercise, family obligations, social affairs, volunteerism, etc.), remember that the person in front of your nose may be the one person who really needs YOU right now. Stay present, listen, and encourage!
Hi Zumba Peeps!
Team FitThere are some exciting things going on this month...

I would like to first send a warm ZUMBA welcome to our newest certified instructors, Lindsay and Chantell. As many of you know, both gals already host an array of classes for TF such as cycling, cardio kickboxing, Hip Hop, etc., however, they both recently received certifications in Zumba! They will be a great addition to our "Zumba Family"! Chantell and Lindsay will be hosting Zumba Fitness for Team Fit at the STAC location. Come check them out!!!
Speaking of STAC, from Oct 4th to Oct 9th classes at Shelby Township Athletic Club (STAC) will be FREE. So tell your friends, family, neighbors and anyone that want to see what this popular class format was all about. As always, no binding gym membership required. The 6-week session will begin the following week. Classes are just $36 for one session and $22 for each additional session. Come visit Jennifer, Lindsay, Christie and Chantell at this great location. You can check out the schedule HERE and by clicking on the appropriate link.
Secondly, on Oct 11th we will be starting our Monday 7pm class at Ashley Elementary in New Baltimore. If you are unfamiliar with this district you can CLICK HERE to view map and HERE to view schedule. We are taking registrations now so don't miss out! You can either register on-line or via first class mail. Pre-registration is always encouraged to make sure programs runs successfully.
Thirdly, you should have received a flier this past week in regards to the new Zumba changes as well as all the other classes being offered at drop-in rates. If you can not commit to a 6-week session, these are all great classes to drop in to. Zumba programs are also offered as make-up classes as long as it is not sold out. To make up a class with Zumba, please contact Jennifer to arrange. Remember this is the time of year that we get busy and start eating a lot of junk. Make sure you stay on top of your workouts so you don't gain those holiday 10lbs :-)
Finally, please make sure you bring in your clean workout shoes to class and not wear them to class. The nice weather conditions are just as bad on the floor as the sloppy winter ones. This will limit the mess as well as prevent any accidents that may occur with floors being wet or soiled. This procedure is for your safety as well as those around you.
If you are already on Facebook, please be sure to add Team Fit to your favorites. We keep you updated with the latest news (and surprise specials like our $5 drop in days).
If you have any questions, concerns or comments in regards to Zumba Fitness, please feel free to contact Jennifer anytime at 734-748-8533 or at www.teamfitzumba@yahoo.com
Remember, we all stumble, every one of us. That's why it's a comfort to go hand in hand.

Exercise of the Month
Exercises that Help Decrease Knee Pain

kneeNeed Pain-Free Knees? Start Here!


Knees are the most commonly injured joints in the body. Considering that when you simply walk up stairs, the pressure across your knee joints is four times your body weight, it isn't surprising. Simple, everyday wear and tear can end up hurting your mobility.

But it's not too late. Like a rusty door hinge, with care and maintenance, you knees can be trouble free. Even if you already experience problems, exercising the muscles surrounding the knee joints- quadriceps (front of thigh), hamstrings (back of thigh), abductor (outside thigh), and adductor (inside thigh)-will help make your knees stronger and less susceptible to injury. Exercise keeps your joints from stiffening and provides needed support, making movement easier and reducing pain.
To see our recommendations for some exercises you can do to both stretch and strengthen the knee area CLICK HERE.
