New year, new faces! Let's keep the positive energy going with these gentle reminders to ensure everyone's safety and well-being as our community grows.

  • Stay Alert: Be mindful of your surroundings, especially in parking lots. Avoid distractions like headphones or texting while walking. 
  • Park Smart:  Avoid parking next to large vans, trucks, or secluded areas.
  • Secure Valuables: Place valuables out of sight or better yet, keep them at home. Don't leave items like bags, laptops, or other valuables visible inside the car. Use a solid lock when using the lockers and avoid bringing valuables.
  • Key Awareness: Have your keys ready when approaching your car. Check your backseat before entering. Lock your car as soon as you get in, keep windows closed and avoid sitting idle in your car.
  • Mind Parking Time: If you’re staying late, try to park closer to the entrance.  
  • Hydration is Key: Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout sessions.
  • Proper Footwear:  Choose supportive and slip-resistant footwear and use caution when walking in cold, wet, or icy conditions. 
  • Proper Nutrition: Fuel your body with balanced meals and snacks to support your fitness goals.
  • Rest and Recovery: Allow your body time to rest and recover. Sleep is crucial for muscle repair and overall health. Try adding a weekly massage session to your routine to soothe sore muscles. 
  • Stretch and Warm-up: Prioritize stretching and warming up to prevent injuries during workouts.

Remember, your safety and health matter to us. Let's create a supportive and secure environment together!
