WASHINGTON, DC (RUSHPRNEWS) December 30, 2007- Funfit’s founder, Celia Kibler, has a message for the American family, “In 2008, commit to fitness as a family. Turn off the TV, get off the couch and come to Funfit. Make fitness a family affairâ€, she says. With FUNFIT classes being taught in Maryland, New York, Louisiana and now Colorado, and with more locations to open shortly, Celia’s all inclusive family fitness programming has a fitness plan for all families regardless of age groups. Celia can even arrange for a healthy and fun vacation excursions with Funfit Travel.
Whether from toddlers to teens, the trick is to exercise together. Team up dad/mom and toddler, older siblings with younger siblings, grandparents and grandkids or any other family situation, the trick is to make a family commitment to health and fitness for 2008 and as a result, see overall health benefits for everyone.
Celia believes that by making exercise a family affair, healthy patterns are set and more likely to be effective and last a lifetime. Parents are our children’s strongest role models. She states that exercising with your kids doesn’t necessarily require special skills or start-up costs. “You don’t have to be good at anything to put on some music and move your body to it. It’s called dancing and it’s free,†Celia told Rush PR News. “People forget that you’re never too old to be a kid. Playing with your children — there’s no greater joy.â€
She also emphasises the importance of sharing meals and learning about nutrition together. She explains, “Feed your body right, think clearly, make healthy decisions and have funâ€.
