Well hello!
So, as I am sure you have noticed, I haven' t written in over a month and for once in my life, I have a reasonable excuse...I was getting married! (see pic)
So, after an extended absence, I am now promising to write more frequently.
A few exciting pieces of news to pass on; my husband and I have officially registered our new fitness studio, THE BODY TEMPLE!
Let's go ahead and call a spade a spade, this entry is pure and shameless self promotion, but if I don't do it, who will right?
So here is a great example of what you can do when you work for it and focus on the positive.
2 years ago, the idea for this space was born, a large membership type gym that was the brainchild of myself, my husband and our great and talented friend, Adam.
2 years later, the idea has mutated and changed dramatically, but the day when THE BODY TEMPLE finally opens it's doors for business fast approaches.
There have been a number of people who have supported us and our idea from the beginning and to those people, I say THANK YOU!
But I also want to thank those people who were skeptical and unsure because those are the people who helped us to refine the idea to a point where it is a truly viable and potentially successful business plan. Without the nay-sayers to make us rethink again and again, we may have gone through the entire process AFTER we invested money and time and when it was much more difficult to make drastic changes to our initial business model.
The important thing was that through every step of the process, every change, every negative person and comment, we both stayed true to the reasons that we wanted the gym and those reasons are what led us to finally settle on a personal training facility and holistic health and fitness co-op.
Thank you to all of you...we are very excited to open ur doors.
I will post contact info as well as the website once everything is up and running.
I've been researching some very interesting topics recently and will have some great posts for you in the future.
I will be accountable to you, my readers (even if it is only me and Jon's mom! ;)
I vow to post bi-weekly from now on...so holler at me if I miss!
CHeers
Alayna KELLETT!!!
