BALANCE fitness Studio for Women joins forces with The International Festival of Arts & Ideas and The Liz Lerman Dance Exchange to present BALANCE Outdoor Fitness Boot Camp for area residents during the 2 week festival.
Finding Space Sacred: 5 Twilights Plus is a series of events that explore the city of New Haven and find "sacred spaces" in everyday places in the city. Too often women overlook caring for themselves in lieu of their many other responsibilities and when they take the initiative to take care of themselves first, it is indeed a sacred act. Says creator of the fitness program Mubarakah Ibrahim, "When women get up at 5:30 a. m. to do an hour of exercise that improves their health and fitness, they do something for themselves. When we stay healthy and fit we are better mothers, daughters, wives, sisters and friends."
The one-hour class will be held on the Lower New Haven Green and will be accompanied by live musicians, as participants are led through a series of exercises designed to help women lose weight, gain muscle, and reduce body fat. "The camp is for both the beginner and veteran exerciser alike. There will be lots of motivation, camaraderie, and sweat," says Ibrahim a Certified Personal Trainer and Camp Lead Instructor. She insists that nobody will be left behind or asked to complete more than they are capable of doing safely. Nor will anybody go home unchallenged. Women of all ages and abilities are welcome to participate.
The BALANCE Outdoor Fitness Boot Camp for Women will be held Wednesday, June 25, 2008 at 6:30 a. m. on the Lower New Haven Green in New Haven, CT. Registration is free but is limited to women only. Interested participants can register on the website http://www. NewHavenBootCamp. com (http://www. NewHavenBootCamp. com) or at BALANCE fitness Studio for Women.
Mubarakah Ibrahim is the author of several books on health and fitness related topics including "CT Top 10 Fit and Fabulous Adventures You Never Knew Existed!", which can be downloaded free by visiting http://www. NewHavenBootCamp. com (http://www. NewHavenBootCamp. com).
