Thank you to everyone who came to our Open House weekend—we had an overwhelming and enthusiastic response, with new clients checking out the studio and sampling six of our classes—Tabata with Dawn, Piloxing with Erika, TRX/Circuit with Letta, Barre with Caty, Mat Pilates with Becky, and Meditation with live cello music with Julia. 

Seven incredible local businesses joined us, too, offering acupuncture, massage, and rolfing sessions; snack and beverage samples; and a rack sale on eye-catching (and soft as butter!) leggings. These companies were: Sattva, Armonia Acupuncture, Minny Spoons, (W)holesum Kitchen, Courageous Creativity, and In|Form Rolfing. Additionally, our own Becky and Beth offered information about Global CitiZen Retreats, their yoga, travel, and wellness venture with upcoming retreats in the Dominican Republic and Ireland, as well as local beauty spots, like Lake Superior’s North Shore.

The winners of our prize drawings are as follows:

• Richard Narendran: One free private Pilates session with studio owner, Master Instructor, and Pilates educator Emily Easton
• Christine Hauschildt: One free private TRX training session with highly credentialed fitness dynamo—not to mention social media consultant and Open House planner extraordinaire—Erika Cianciaruso
• Kelly Sanger: Free, one-month Universal Unlimited Pass, including all of our studio formats (Asana Stretch, Six° Barre, TRX/Circuit, Cardio/Abs, Cardio Dance, Tabata, Piloxing, Mat Pilates, Gentle Vinyasa Yoga, Six° Strength, and more!) as well as Reformer Pilates (a $260 value!)

Again, we’d like to welcome our new friends to the studio and express our gratitude to the loyal clients who make Six° the dynamic, challenging, supportive, and transformative place it is. This is a vibrant community in a beautiful space performing acts of radical self-care—what more could we want?

And finally, our thanks to event organizer Erika Cianciaruso, who recruited our partner-vendors, scheduled sample classes, got the word out, created gift bags full of goodies, created a beautiful atmosphere, and taught Piloxing! Without her, this fun weekend truly couldn’t have happened.
