STRIDE

Join us in wishing a happy Grand Opening Weekend to our FIRST franchise studio, @stride_jacksonvillebeach. Since opening in June 2020, owners Gina & Seth Wardell have built an incredible local community of Coaches and members. Time to celebrate! #STRIDENationwide

Client SpotlightMeet Virginia Frazee Virginia has been coming to STRIDE for just over 2 years, having been encouraged by her step mom Nancy. She says Nancy cares very much about her and has taught her that exercise is foundational in a long and healthy life. Virginia is now 6 months pregnant, which feels like 6 years at this point, she says. After getting clearance from her doctor, Virginia has worked out during her entire pregnancy, missing only a few days in her fi...rst trimester due to morning sickness. It's super important to me to stay active for my mental and physical health, but it's also super important to make sure to clear everything with your doctor! I will keep working out in whatever capacity feels comfortable to me until I cannot. My body usually tells me if I don't like something pretty quickly, so I can just modify or walk. All the coaches are super good at checking on me and suggesting alternatives. Working out does make my pregnancy feel better. Even though I feel like a very large beach ball, I still feel very energetic and motivated. I've heard from a few moms that staying active makes labor and recovery easier - but who knows! It definitely feels great to get my heart rate up. Fun fact: Virginia has ridiculous cravings. I'll wake up in the middle of the night and want kim chi fried rice, udon noodles or fettuccini alfredo. I also crave Big Macs, which I haven't eaten in years. And tons of fruit. I cannot get enough fruit. We are having a baby boy, I was convinced it was a girl until I actually got visual confirmation earlier this year. My son's due date is May 28 and my birthday is the 21st - so we might have the same birthday if I get lucky (or unlucky) depending on how you look at it! Virginia loves our community and asks that anyone with first time mom advice please share it with her! We are so grateful for you trusting STRIDE with your fitness journey. We can’t wait to celebrate the healthy birth of your son!

If you want further proof of the power of STRIDE, check out the below #STRIDESpotlight from @flourpowercookies at @stride_jacksonvillebeach: Suffering from major burnout after a long marathon training season, STRIDE reignited my love of running! STRIDE allows me to stay extremely consistent with my fitness while also providing the opportunity to complete the accessory work and strength training that a lot of runners (myself included!) will not do on their own. This, along wi...th the variety of class schedules and scalability of the workout helps keep me injury free, while the inspiring coaches and staff motivate me to show up every day! STRIDE can work for every single fitness level because you can make each workout your own and you get out of it what you put into it. What are you waiting for? Come run with us!!

Heading into the weekend with our Head Coach Aubrey! If you haven’t taken a class with her~ find her on the schedule Tuesday & Saturdays! She will keep you motivated with her awesome playlists, fabulous dance moves and her supportive coaching! Don’t let a week go by without her @aubses

Show of hands if you’ve walked a Level 4 lately. Incline work is great for improving lung function, aiding in recovery, and building muscle. Plus, it’s one of our favorite ways to mix up our workouts! #HitYourSTRIDE

Coach SpotlightHave you met Coach Samantha? @sammajammaaaa Come check out her amazing energy and talent each and every Friday! A little about Samantha ...she is an ACE certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor. She found her love for HIIT training when she started taking group fitness classes in college and was amazed at how it transformed her body. Sam grew up as a dancer in Northern California and while she no longer pursues it, you’ll still find her busting a move during class! She loves both the intensity of Stride workouts and the tight knit community Stride has created with its employees and clients. Come try one of Sam’s classes for her booty workouts and R&B playlists!

Good morning! Meet Lauren, she’s our new front desk superstar If you haven’t stopped in to say hello, please do! She will greet you with her beautiful smile and will gladly help you with any issue or just chat! Lauren grew up in Monrovia, not far from STRIDE Pasadena. She is passionate about music, travel, animals, and food. Before the pandemic, you could find her at a concert, on a hike, at the beach, or a new restaurant almost every weekend. She started her fitness journey last year. The pandemic definitely rained on my (and everyone’s) a bit but it’s so nice and motivating to finally be back in a fitness setting and around people! My goal right now is to make sure everyone has a great time in class every time they come
