2 factors that help you thrive and live longer with the Passion Barre Freedom 24-7 Challenge

live life free

At the turn of the new year, we shared 17 ways to be transformed in 2016 and charged you to pick just a few that you would practice this year. Well, the consensus is out and this will help you narrow your focus to two! Read below, and watch the video to see how practicing these two factors will also make you a champion in helping to rescue women and children from torture and captivity.

Numbers 4 and 5 on this list say it in a nutshell: move more and connect more.We see new friendships budding and thriving here at Passion Barre all because people showed up to improve the way they move! And of course, it’s only natural – it’s a safe place where you’re celebrated- key elements to creating an environment for connection.

You were designed for social connection and meaningful relationships regardless of your personality type. This doesn’t make you needy, it makes you thrive!

So, I encourage you to challenge your comfort zone and invest in your longevity and growth. Get to “moving”; make new friends and be purposeful in developing the relationships important to you – and perhaps shed the ones that hinder your mutual progress.

Ok so hear my heart: With all the GMOs, chemical preservatives, over-medication etc in our present day system – things can get overwhelming and discouraging and at times we can only know so much without being bogged down with anxiety. No matter how well do, we sometimes ingest things we don’t even want to know about. Here’s some encouragement for you, and something to believe in. Pray this over yourself and your loved ones! ‪#‎passionbarre‬ ‪#‎takeauthority‬ ‪#‎audacitywithvictory‬ ‪#‎unleashfreedom‬‪#‎wewin‬ ‪#‎karingah‬

Are you ready?!

It’s coming again… Something tremendous is about to happen!  

17 ways to be transformed in the new year

happy new year!

I hope you are as excited as I am! The turning of time is a great gift to us and a momentum builder for dreaming again. So let this be your year, folks! Did you see that? Your year. Own it and live it out victoriously. Here’s to many more in grace, good health, power and prosperity.

So what are you going to do differently this year? Will you reduce your stress level? Will you improve your diet? Will you take movement and exercise more seriously?

Think about it:
The fact is, you will grow, age or change this year, and on December 31, you will be slightly (or dramatically) different than you are today. The secret to this is harnessing the inevitable and taking it in the direction you want. One cool thing about a New Year is that it gives us the opportunity to reflect over life, to acknowledge where we are and where we want to be headed.
If you would like to be headed in the direction of improved health, reduced fat and increased strength, then:

…when you don’t know whether you’re laughing or screaming.

Treat yourself to my Passion Barre program, and give yourself a dose of laughter and inspiration (medicine for your whole being). 

Go for the lean, lithe look of a dancer without being a dancer with Passion Barre, a low impact workout that’ll give that booty a stiletto lift, narrow the thighs, firm up the abs, melt fat and help renew your mind!

This technique calls for a unique approach to fitness focusing first on you, then body-weight resistance, isometric and isokinetic movements with stretches and relaxation which help you keep calories burning long after your session. It’s Ballet meets Pilates, Cardio and Inspiration; so belly up to the barre for some serious toning, strengthening and life changing action.

My passion is to INSPIRE you to FREEDOM! –with creative inward and outward healthy living, to condition your body and mind  for STRENGTH. Hey, we have a world to impact and I want to co-brand with you and the community through “FIT-FOR-FREE” to reach out and bring freedom to the captive.​​​​​​​​ 

So join me in an energetic, yet restorative private studio. Enjoy Passion Barre, Pilates, Santu Stretch or one of my other signature crafted sessions that’ll restore, strengthen, burn off fat and get you energized as you thrive in a longer, leaner and stronger version of YOU. Hydrate and chat; or shop the private boutique with Tribal Marks inspire-wear, spa collection and home accents.

Try this video on one of my favorite anywhere Barre Workouts to tone and sculpt the arms:

These are the words we are privileged to hear from our super tribe! It might be during class, like what you see here with Ida and the rest of the ladies sculpting arms just off the Ballet barre with medicine balls. And sometimes it’s before and after class as we lounge and catch up on life – or maybe over the phone, text and social media. Wherever it comes from, I stop and marvel at the confirmation and opportunity to hear it. I admire each one as she freely shares her gratitude and offers us a compliment. I know it takes the same greatness in us, to recognize and attest to greatness in another. “She is stunning!”, I think to myself, as I learned to say, from Lisa Bevere. We know each life is a force converging, or waiting to converge; to align and fulfill his or her own God-breathed destiny – and it is gorgeous to behold! This whole process of engaging, dance inspired fitness, results, transformation and revival – it is truly a work of art! Thank you, tribe.

History

Human Trafficking/Modern Day Slavery is an issue that you might have started to hear about. But more than just a buzz, the shocking reality is that there are estimated to be 27 million in the world who have been forced into labor and sex. This is an estimated 32 billion dollar industry, and the average price of acquiring a slave is $90!

We are passionate about Freedom and Inspiration at Passion Barre and Karingah; and we believe that:

Freedom has often come, and can only come, as a result of the free becoming distressed by the captivity of the enslaved.

Individual freedom is still being threatened, and we want to raise louder voices this month with other abolitionists worldwide.

We’re focusing our giving efforts on projects by A21 Campaign and The Exodus Road through our partner, Pearl Alliance.

Also, if you’ve never heard of Human Trafficking; or you have heard, but didn’t think it was possible to make a difference; please reflect on this short clip on top 10 human trafficking facts and how you can help end slavery in twenty five years!
