The focus this month has been BALANCE

Balance- an even distribution of weight enabling someone or something to remain upright and steady.

Balance is an activity that we don't typically think about. Once we develop our balance as a young child, we tend to forego the necessity to continue its development. Balance becomes a subconscious part of our daily routine until the unexpected happens. An injury, a fall, a major life disruption can throw your balance off, not to mention, age. As we age, we can become less stable. Less secure in our daily walk. Improving your balance can help to keep the body aligned, to help prevent injury and improve physical activity.

MEET OUR TRAINERS!!
Michal is our newest addition to Health & Fitness in the Heights. Let’s get to know her!

Michal Petrarca is a University of Central Arkansas graduate with a lifelong passion for fitness and athletics. She decided to pursue a career in fitness after graduating college and becoming a new mother. In an effort to get back in shape, she joined the local roller derby league. She quickly realized the importance of off-track fitness training in conjunction with the sport and fell
in love with working out. Michal became a certified personal trainer in 2022 and joined the Health & Fitness in the Heights team in October. She is our afternoon small group class trainer and offers strength training and core/cardio classes. Her favorite routines involve working against your own
bodyweight and adding weight to simple exercises to teach proper form and test endurance. Michal loves her small group training sessions because it allows her to focus on the needs of each individual, modifying exercises and providing feedback throughout the session while still enjoying the comradery of working out with others. She loves to hear feedback from her students and ensure that each person is getting the most out of each workout no matter their limitations. Michal invites you to stop by Heath & Fitness in the Heights and sign up for a free trial class to experience
the unique benefits of small group training!
