Unique, Fun, and FREE Way To Raise Money For Your Favorite Charity Or Non-Profit

Tired of the same old boring fundraisers? 

I can help!     

I run an indoor charity boot camp every Saturday morning at 9:00 A.M. All you need to do is reserve a date and start inviting people.

Fitness boot camp workouts are fun, challenging, comprehensive training sessions that address all areas of fitness - total body strength, fat loss, balance, cardiovascular, muscular endurance and flexibility. 

The session will last approximately 45 minutes and include a warmup and a cooldown.

Workouts involve primarily body weight and dumbbell exercises. All fitness levels are invited. Anyone, 12 and over, is welcome to participate. (Kids must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.)

Don’t let the term “boot camp” scare you; the workouts are challenging but will be adapted to the fitness level of the participant. Those who aren't in great shape should not be afraid to join in. 

You can have each participant pay/donate a set amount and/or encourage them get sponsors. 100% of the money donated or raised by your participants goes to your charity. I donate my time, the equipment, and use of the facility- there is absolutely no charge to you or the organization.

Hang out with friends, have some fun, get some exercise and raise money for a worthy cause. What better way to spend 45 minutes on a Saturday morning?

Call Mickey today at (717) 509-7777 for all the details and to reserve your date.

Workout For St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - Saturday, May 17th

Join me this Saturday, May 17th for a fun and challenging group workout to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Because of treatments invented at St. Jude, the overall childhood cancer survival rate has increased from 20%, when it opened in 1962, to more than 80% today.


As opposed to some other researchers, the team at St. Jude freely shares their medical breakthroughs. Every child saved at St. Jude allows doctors and scientists throughout the world to use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

 
Our workout will begin at 9 AM and last approximately 45 minutes, including warmup and cooldown. Please spread the word among your co-workers, neighbors, friends, and family. 

Requested donation is $20 or $20 or more in sponsor donations. If you can't exercise with us, please consider sponsoring a participant.

All fitness levels are invited. Exercises will be adapted or substituted, as necessary. Anyone 12 and older is welcome to join us.

It really helps if I have an idea of how many people to expect so, if possible, please let me know ahead of time that you’re coming. Then again, if you decide last minute, just come on down. Raising as much money as possible is obviously the goal.

To register or if you have any questions, please call Mickey at (717) 509-7777.

All proceeds benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, where no child is ever turned away due to parental inability to pay and no family is billed for services not paid by insurance.

Fall Fitness Frenzy to Benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Since Body & Soul is a small fitness center, I've chosen to support one primary charity and raise money for it throughout the year. That charity is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, where no child is ever turned away due to parental inability to pay and no family is billed for services not paid by insurance.

Oct. 9, 2000 is the day I opened Body & Soul Fitness Studio. Besides what we do all year round, last year near my anniversary, I started doing a weekend of activities to raise money for St. Jude. This year, thanks to the generosity of the instructors below, I'm able to offer even more classes.

 

If you can't join us, please consider sponsoring someone else or making a donation. Please spread the word to your friends, family and co-workers.

My Crazy Furnace Repair Sale

My Loss Is Your Gain!

The actual furnace.
Yes, I know it's ancient.

Recently the furnace in my building went out and I was hit with a very large repair bill. It’s also time to make a hefty insurance payment. So, my problem is your opportunity. 

Obviously, I need to raise some cash so I've decided to offer a variety of fitness services at crazy prices for a limited time.

Buy for yourself or as a gift. But hurry, these prices disappear on 12-31-11 at noon.


3 month membership: $99 (and no enrollment fee)

Includes a personalized workout routine plus 2 one-on-one personal training sessions to learn the workout, and 3 months membership to Body & Soul Fitness Studio.  

That's a savings of $100!

If you've had a bad experience in the past, this is a great way to see how different Body & Soul is from a typical gym.
   
Thinking about rejoining? Hesitant to commit for a year? Here's the answer.

It's also a great gift for someone who wants to get in shape but needs some personal attention or who hates crowded co-ed facilities.

Sorry guys, Body & Soul gym membership is for ladies only.


Boot Camp Express:
4 weeks for $99

30 minute workouts for novice boot campers on Tuesday and Thursdays at 9:00 AM. 
(We could start earlier or later if demand warrants.)

A great way to experience boot camp for the first time. Perfect for stay at home moms (drop your kids at school, then head over to Body & Soul), part-timers, those with flexible schedules, or second shifters.

Boot Camp Express will begin as soon I get a minimum of 3 or 4 paid registrations. Not familiar with my boot camp? 

Check it out here ==> No Pink Dumbbells Boot Camp


4 Personal Training Sessions* - Members: $99
4 Personal Training Sessions* - Non-Members: $119

Personal training is a great way to kick start your fitness program or revive one that's on life support.

It's available to both women and men, members and non-members.

Non-members, want a program you can do at home? It can be bodyweight only or designed around any equipment you may have.

Belong to another gym but never received a properly designed routine? I can create one you can do at your current facility. 

This is a $57 savings for members and $61 for non-members.

* all sessions must be taken within 4 weeks

Personal training is subject to scheduling availability.

Limited Time Offer. Save BIG On Fitness Gifts!

As a big thank you to my members and friends, I'm having a HUGE sale on boot
camp gift cards in conjunction with Small Business Saturday on November 26th.


Get a $100 gift card (good for 2 consecutive weeks of boot camp or 5 individual workouts) for just $25!

New boot campers only. You can buy them for gifts but only one gift card can be used per person.
 
Think boot camp might be too much for your recipient? As I was typing this post, I decided to also offer a Body & Soul enrollment fee for $25. That's 68% off!


Remember, boot camp is co-ed but Body & Soul Fitness Studio is a women's only gym.

Please call me at (717) 509-7777 so I can get the gift cards or certificates ready ahead of time. Let me know when you're coming so I won't be working with someone. Visa or Mastercard accepted.

Because I'm only open until noon on Saturday, I'm making both special offers available starting Friday, the 25th. That means you have 2 days to take advantage of these terrific deals.

"I love No Pink Dumbbells Boot Camp for how I feel after each workout and how I have progressed in the 5 months I have been attending. I truly look forward to the 3 days a week when I go to class and Mickey has yet another great, challenging and yes fun workout planned. Class is never, ever boring and before you know it 45 minutes to an hour have gone by and it feels terrific!"
