WEEK 2 @ AQUA STUDIO: IT’S ALL IN THE POSTURE!
It’s my second week at AQUA Studio! Wooohooo! Well, actually it WAS my second week, now I’m on my third, reporting on the second. Ok…now I’m confusing myself, so I can’t imagine what I’m doing to you. Of course I had a class with Lady Emma, but I also took the “Power” class with Anne.…

WEEK 1 @ AQUA STUDIO NY: IT’S NOT AS EASY AS YOU THINK!
Last week, I started AQUA Studio, which is basically aqua biking. An idea taken from France and brought to the States, has peaked the interests of workout aficionados alike.

BEAUTY HOTSPOT| UNI K WAX
It’s that time of year when we want to do nothing else but hibernate. Bundle up under our covers in our jammies and wake to bloomed tulips, birds singing and lots of hair. But since we aren’t bears and have lives to live and jobs to do, our upkeep has to stay on point. So…

HIP & HEALTHY| JCPENNY X KARINA SMIRNOFF
Dancing with the Stars Karina Smirnoff hosted JCPenney’s New Year, New You Fitness Event at the JCPenney’s showroom in SoHo. Decked out in JCPenny’s Xersion and CityStreets Activewear lines, Karina led dance aerobic classes that had our heart pumping and muscles screaming.

WEEK 3 AND 4: LEAVE FEARS AT THE DOOR
So this is a mash up of Week 3 Elements and Week 1 Beginners. Still doing the 6AM workout as why change when you’ve already gotten into a routine of getting up at a particular time. Though I still see Michael MWF, and have a class filled with many of my Elements classmates, there are…
