Gearing up for Dance Marathon and fundraising season

The ice storm, the holiday season and the shortest day of the year are behind us.  While we may still be dealing with the #polarvortex, I'm being optimistic about things.  Now, we're gearing up for a new year of healthy choices for both soul and body!

I'm really amped up to be participating in Tony Dance Fitness Studio's "Love Yourself Dance Challenge".  It's a great incentive to participate in as many dance classes as possible, in order to meet goals that you have set for yourself.  Goals could be weight loss, increased energy, muscle tone, etc.  It's your journey.  Tony is extremely enthusiastic, and I find that environment holds me accountable.

A little bit of good for the soul, is STRIVE.  We're getting ready for the March 1 #STRIVErocks2014 dance-athon.  The annual event takes over the Maine Mall from 9PM March 1 into 9AM March 2.  Each hour will have a theme, and there are lots of prizes and giveaways for attendees.  Strive offers amazing programs for individuals with disabilities.  Job training, fitness and skill classes, support and more.   The money raised will be a tremendous asset to the portfolio of services offered.

In addition to STRIVE Rocks, we have the first annual Maine Dancesport fundraiser July 18.  More to come on that. Please make sure to like us on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter.  See you on the dancefloor, Maine!
