Hey guys...just checking in with you all...hope everyone is healthy and finding ways to stay sane!! I have talked to many of you over the past couple of weeks and suffice it to say...those emotional roller coasters you are having...well, you are not alone!! Grateful for the peeps around us to help pull us up when it's our turn to have a bad day and grateful for the strength we have all found to encourage others as well!!
Wow!! What a ride!!
I ran across this the other day...it was posted by a company looking to help fitness businesses through this time...it said that basically we have 3 choices…
1. FREEZE...and let this crisis overwhelm you
2. FLEE...and pretend this isn't happening, or
3. FIGHT...and live to watch your studio reopen its doors stronger than ever before
Body Language is choosing to FIGHT!!
AND...many of you have asked how you can join that FIGHT…so here’s few ways how…
1. Keep your memberships rolling: We are offering a virtual presence to tide students over...it's ever evolving but we are working on it EVERY DAY!! It is our hope that our FB Lives and YouTube classes will give those of you who are able, another reason to keep your memberships rolling.
Take a class with YouTube Class Library !!
2. Purchasing gift cards: On the home page of our website you can purchase gift cards. These could be used toward a massage or workout outfit when our doors re-open, or they could be gifted to a friend, family member, or a health care worker. This would be of huge help in just managing cash flow and covering fixed expenses while our doors are closed.
I'd like to purchase a Gift Card !!
3. Donate: We have embedded an option on our home page to make a donation to BL. These donations will go toward rent, utilities and a myriad of other fixed expenses. But we have also had many requests from clients who don't presently have memberships or who live out of state and are using our virtual classes who want to contribute. Now you can choose to donate, if you wish, as a way to help BL pay the teachers and behind the scene staff creating this content.
Make a Donation - Thank YOU !!
So this is how BL is fighting...we know these are tough times for many and appreciate your support in any way possible.
Lastly, I just want to leave you with the thought that these 3 options…
FREEZE, FLEE & FIGHT are not exclusive to Body Language or the fitness/yoga business. They apply to every one of you out there. They apply to me and to you! We all have a choice. Every day that we drag ourselves out of bed, we have a choice! Don’t let these times overwhelm you, don’t hide under the covers…CHOOSE TO FIGHT!! I am!! Body Language is!! Encouraging you to FIGHT as well!!
I WILL see you on the other side of this…all of us, STRONGER than ever!!
Andrea
