Here I am living in the Hill Country with literally dozens of options of things to do for exercise and fitness…in fact, the variety of options tend to be overwhelming sometimes because there are so many. Here, in Wimberley, I could join a Jazzercise class or one of the two smaller fitness centers, or simply hike our Mt. Baldy’s stairs daily as many do everyday of the week, or in the summer, go swimming at Cypress Creek or the Unity pool where I have a membership….But I found myself wanting more lately; Mt. Baldy is a wonderful place to climb up in the early morning and sit and meditate and look out over Wimberley, but it is not quite enough of a complete workout for me……So why am I joining a fitness club in San Marcos?….Well, apart from the simple reason that I go to San Marcos on a daily basis, I have found that I will work out more if I have a work-out buddy! My dear friend, Andrea, who is joining with me has 2 small children and so we need day care included. Today I checked out World Gym and the Texas Health & Racquet Club to see which one best suits my needs and my friend is checking them out as well. As far as we could discover, these are the only two clubs with free child-care included with the membership. They also fits my needs as both clubs offer a 3 month membership package and since I am moving to Austin in the very near future, I do not want to be tied to one of those long-term, impossible to break contracts. Today, Cole (of Texas Health and Racquet Club) www.THRC.biz has invited us to join the “Shimmy Skinny” belly dance class for a free try-out and they are including the child care also, so we are so up for that! It is their very first belly dance class to be offered, so we are both really excited to be in on the first class. Just perfect timing for us both… Both Andrea and I took belly dancing eons ago and we both loved it, so will write more this week on how our health club explorations turn out!
