Cheers to you

Baby Boot Camp started in Portland Metro April 9th, 2005. Since then it grew and evolved into the uber active supportive community of the premier stroller fitness classes that not only a fantastic workout, but also an incredible community.  YOU worked hard at not only becoming outstanding Moms, but also incredible athletes and for a few incredible franchise owners.  You have done thousands of jumping jacks, planks, bicep curls, lunges, airplanes and running races.  To know we all worked so hard together to cheer one another on in every athletic endeavor, and every new baby born is priceless.  As I move on and back to the Bay Area, I look forward to hearing of the stories about class feats, outstanding Moms, and new adventures you have done.  Enjoy growing your new communities within Baby Boot Camp, have fun with the new instructors, and challenge one another each day.   Set goals to go to class at least 3-5x/week during the holidays and the new year to come...get into the best shape possible and have fun with the premier team of franchise owners- Gina, Kristine, Linda, Sharon, Stephanie, Suzy and Trisha.

Email  from Instructor Anne to everyone:

 

On November 28, our very own Erin Shirey is planning to teach her very last Baby Boot Camp class. 

Ever. 

I know, doesn't seem possible right? 

Sadly, we must proceed as if it is nonetheless. So...

*Secret Mom's Night Out, honoring Erin ShireyMeet for drink and apps

Next Wednesday, Nov. 18, 8:00 pmKell's Irish Pub 

Before
Tuesday (11/17), please email me your notes and stories about memorable
moments with Erin. We plan to present her with a little album for her.
Of course, you're invited to contribute regardless of your attendance
plans for MNO.

My Email: apkoski(at)gmail(dot)com

*Erin
knows we're planning something; she just doesn't know what, so you're
approved to tease her! Also, she won't be on Yahoo Groups until after
this event, so if you want her to read your YG post, email it to
powerfitnesspdx(at)gmail(dot)com.

Kells it was and we had a blast!!!!

 

You are all WONDERFUL!!!! Wednesday night was so very special, I can't

even tell you. To look around and see so many incredible, dynamic,
loving, healthy, active, energetic, supportive and just phenomenal women
who I got to see daily since April 9, 2005, was heartwarming. TO have
read your stories touched me more than you know.

What you guys don't know is I had a file on my computer compiled "nice
emails" and it was the emails I received over the years from BBC
participants about their experience. Our computer crashed 3 weeks ago
and I lost that folder...it was my history of YOU. So without realizing
it you guys gave me an even bigger gift with your time to write
something about why you enjoyed Baby Boot Camp, training with my silly
self, training with the entire team of rockstar instructors and newfound
athletic selves. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I love and adore all of you and thank you for being YOU.

Blog That Could Benefit You

I blog for Mamapreneurs Inc. and just did a blog that may help some of you Mamas and Papas in regards to being laid off.  Last Thursday Jack was laid off...without severance and without benefits.  It is part of the reason I had to decide on a set date for my last class...we don't know if we are packing up our home and having to move come the holidays for a few job opportunities that have presented themselves.  Take a minute :  Mamapreneurs Inc- When Your Better Half Is Laid Off
