❤️February FierceFam Spotlight: Sara and Dan ❤️
This month we are celebrating a Fierce couple whose energy, presence, and dedication contribute to our Fierce45® community, especially at Hilltop! It is so much fun having them both in class (separately, and on rare occasions, when they’re together 😉), and we want to celebrate all of their hard work thus far and look forward to many more Fierce milestones to come.
How long have you been coming to Fierce45?
Dan - End of June 2021. Big shout out to our friend Matt Williamson for telling us about Fierce.
Sara - June 2021 (still feel like a newbie!)
Favorite move on the machine?
Dan - I like so many of the leg moves it is hard to pick. Maybe light front lunge if it is not too late in class.
Sara - Carriage kneeling sprinter on heavy springs - I am always sore the next day!
How has Fierce made a positive impact on your life?
Dan - It is so good for my mental and physical well-being. I leave every workout happier than when I came in. It also gives Sara and me something to talk about that is not our amazing 4-year-old daughter and work.Sara - I love the instructors and thrive on positive feedback during workouts. Going to Fierce gives me 45 minutes that is just for me - not worrying about everything else on my list for the day. I usually go to morning classes, and it helps set up my day for success.
Why do you choose Fierce over another workout?
Dan - It is a great balance of challenge and fun. I love the music (especially theme classes!) and the positive and supportive environment. I can get a great workout over lunch or before starting work and leave energized
Sara - During the pandemic, it was hard to get workouts in between working full time and daycare closures- and I need the motivation of a class setting to workout regularly. I was excited to find something that was just 45 minutes - but still a challenging workout every time that helps me feel good mentally and physically. And Dan and I wanted something we could do together - our schedules don't always align for classes, but it is fun when they do!
Tell us a fun fact about you!
Dan - Breakfast burritos are my favorite food. I first became familiar with Fierce because Basil Docs across the street was on the way home from daycare drop off and they have a great weekday burrito special (I get it with green chili and beans). I never braved coming into class until Matt told Sara and me about it. So now I eat way fewer breakfast burritos because I think of Fierce when driving by and not how hungry I am.
Sara - I read between 75-100 books a year!
