“You can’t fire a cannon from a canoe”
Wise words from Paul Chek.

I’ll be putting this sentiment into action over the next few weeks while group classes are on pause.

Think: more flow and restoration over impact. More bare feet on the ground and less hip hoppin around in my APL’s.

The mind will continue to run, but the hope is that new insight will come. I believe creativity comes when our grip on outcomes and producing certain results is loosened and we can be “still” for a bit. I think the same applies for changes to the physical body.

In order to keep firing cannons, I gotta keep my body a strong enough vessel to hold the power to do so.

Here’s to rest and recovery. Aka- the most important aspect of staying fit ✌🏽

Studio classes will be paused August 8th- September 6th b/c- we all gotta chill.

August tends to be a month for soaking up what's left of free time in the sun so I figured it a good time for hitting the breaks and regathering that good mighty might for the fall.

BUT, just because the studio will be on pause does not mean you have to go without Dancing, Flowing, and Toning. Trust.

Stay tuned for exciting news later this week on my soon to be launched virtual classes 🥳

To feel good in my own skin. One of my constant goals…

For me, achieving this aim goes beyond physical aesthetics and means carrying out daily habits and rituals conducive to feeling like a million bucks from the inside out.

For most of us, this doesn’t take rocket science level knowledge, but at the same time, there are no short cuts.

Eating whole foods that nourish and compliment my individual system, moving mindfully, being diligent about my sleep and recovery, and designating time each day for touching in on stillness and spirit. These practices are the micro to my macro when it comes to feeling my best.

Do I nail it every time? Nop. In my quest to find balance and feel like a million bucks every day, sometimes the pendulum swings too far in one direction and I get off course. But, I can confidently say that when I come back to how I want to FEEL- light, centered, energized- I’m right back at it.

Life is meant to be lived, and as the eloquent saying goes, sh*t happens. But, as long as we can get clear on how we want to feel and show up in every day life, we’ll keep going in the right direction.

It takes work, yes. But so does anything that’s worthwhile. And I’d say that living a full and healthful life falls under that category.

Here’s to us feeling like a million bucks in our own skin. Or, at least consistently leaning into making it happen 🤛🏼

I can’t promise you’ll smile through all of Dance + Tone class, BUT I can promise you’ll smile after 😁

Thanks to this killer group for bringing it this morning!

Guest Teacher Moment! 💃🏻

A bit about Nicky. Studio owner/ pasta lover 👇🏽

A dancer since birth (ask his mom) Nicky grew up in Lancaster, NY honing his skills at the Dance Spectrum. His passion for dance led him to pursue a career in musical theatre where he most recently worked as the Dance Captain for the Broadway musical WICKED.

In an effort to balance out the physical impact of 8 shows a week and find a sense of calm in the midst of the NYC storm, Nicky began a focused yoga practice. Having experienced a profound and positive shift in not only the way his body felt, but his ability to approach everyday situations with a greater sense of calm and centeredness, he decided to dig deeper into the yogic teachings and become a certified instructor through Kula Yoga Project NYC.

Never one to sit still for too long, Nicky decided to try a Dance Cardio class in the city one day for fun. To say that his soul was set a blazin is a drastic understatement! Something about the pop music mixed with fun moves and a sweaty endorphin release made him feel like a carefree kid again and he was hooked!

Soon after that first Dance Cardio class Nicky began teaching it himself at a studio in NYC before heading to the theatre each night for the show. 

His multi passionate love for fitness and wellness is what has inspired Nicky to come back home to Buffalo and create a space where people can choose a workout that meets them where they’re at on their fitness journey and work to uncover the daily habits that allow them to thrive in everyday life. Whether we’re dancing, flowing, toning, or chatting wellness, the goal is the same: get Fit, have FUN, be Centered glitter ✨

I had the pleasure of sharing my story and what brought me back to WNY to open a fitness studio w/ the lovely Penny Wolfgang on her radio show.

Birthday shout out 🎉
The amazing turns 21 today! We got to start her next trip around the sun with a morning sweat sesh where she brought it per usual 💦

Jordan, your hard work and undying determination over the past month has been an inspiration to me. There is SO much good to come your way for your 21st year, and I can’t wait to see it all unfold ✨

Happy Birthday you rockstar! 🌟

Jumping into a new week like…
(Swipe for this weeks class sched!)

Nothing stops us from starting anew every day, but there’s something about the beginning of a new week that feels extra momentous.

The path to being optimally fit and healthy is paved by making multiple micro choices over a substantial amount of time. Subscribing to an extreme fad diet and hoping the rest will take care of itself doesn’t yield lasting results. Period.

Mindful Movement is a key pillar to your overall health, and it can feed your soul just as much as a delicious whole food meal can.

So… join me in the studio this week and let’s get a movin! 👇🏽

Don’t quite feel like “guru” status just yet (🤓) but I’m feeling the Buffa-love from this awesome write up in the Buffalo Spree 🙌🏼.

New class schedule is LIVE 👍🏽
Check out what’s new 🤩

What I’m most excited about is the addition of a low impact Just Dance! class.

Many of you have expressed wanting to feel the soul lifting Joy that a good dance cardio class can bring but hesitate out of concern of class being too intense. Now, you can move and groove with less intensity and still get that delicious endorphin release 💃🏻

Cannot wait to be in the studio with you this month, feeling Joy while doing good for ourselves ✨

See you on the floor soon!

Still on a natural high from class yesterday 🏳️‍🌈

Thank you again to these ladies for Dancing + Toning with me. Not only did we do good things for our bodies and souls through sweat and mindful movement, but we did it in the name of equality and one love for all.

We’ve come so far in terms of inclusivity and acceptance when it comes to LGBTQ rights and it’s easy to slip into thinking the fight is over. But, it only took me, a grown man who is very comfortable in his skin, being called a hateful slur in a park 2 weeks ago to be reminded that we must still shed light on the need for change.

I’m happy to share that $250 will be donated to the Pride Center of WNY because of each YOU.

Thank you for sweating for Pride with me 🤍
