NO CLASSES TODAY (MON AUG 31)

It's been completely hectic lately - we've got lots of news items to post and we'll be doing that shortly. But for now we're going to rest up and let the batteries recharge.

Anyway, there are no classes today. Normal classes will resume tomorrow. Have a safe holiday and see you back at the Studio!

THIS WEEKEND: BELLY DANCE AND BOXING AT THE SPRING!

We've got a booth set up at the new second floor of the Spring shopping centre which will be there from today (August 19) through Sunday (August 23) where you can purchase belly dance costumes and hip scarves.

That's not all, though - we have a few more things planned for the weekend:

Saturday, August 22

3:00 - 8:00 p.m.: You can have your eyes glammed up with some Egyptian-style makeup!


8:00 - 9:00 p.m.: Since you've already got the right look, stay on for our Belly Dance Jam party! See what Serina and the Studio 23 dancers have been up to since January - they'll be running through a selection of dances, and finishing off with a Belly Dance Jam!

Sunday, August 23

2:00 - 3:00 p.m.: Take part in a Fizfit workout! It's our second Fizfit outing and we're really looking forward to it. Remember to bring exercise shoes, and dress comfortably.

3:00 - 3:30 p.m.: Watch a typical (relatively - we don't ordinarily train in shopping malls!) CMD class in action.

3:30 - 4:00 p.m.: It's more boxing fun, only now you're welcome to join in! It's an excellent opportunity to experience the CMD program, so come and check it out!

If you want to find out more, it's also a great place to talk to us and get more information about our programs!

See you there!

BELLY DANCE AT THE KUCHING FESTIVAL!

This Saturday, August 8th, Serina will be performing at the Kuching Festival main stage, at MBKS. She'll be showcasing an Oriental dance (Nagwa - choreographed by Nigma), and following up with a workshop focusing on arm variations.

She'll be finishing with a group performance of Sandra's Tabla Solo. So come on over and don't forget to bring your Belly Dance belts!

Time: 8:15 p.m.

P/S: Psst! Come by 8 p.m. and you'll be able to check out Nicholas (currently in Primary School), who does a REALLY good Michael Jackson impersonation!

FIZFIT IN THE PARK


Everyone just LOVED *cough cough* the bear crawls. Some even asked for seconds!


This past Sunday, we headed over to Reservoir Park for the first official Studio 23 Outing, an outdoor Fizfit workout! We had a great turnout - not only was the weather fantastic, we also had more than 30 people drop by for a Sunday evening workout. The most common activity at the park is jogging, so more than a few heads were turned by the sight of a bunch of people doing bear crawls and striders! A few of the regulars at the studio brought their friends, husbands and even children to the park, making it a real workout for all ages.

After the workout proper, we spent some time chatting in the shade and relaxing; there are few better ways to finish off the weekend. Be on the lookout for our next outdoor Fizfit session!



Tired, sweaty and satisfied: a collection of post-workout smiles.

In other news:

There will be no open mats this Saturday (8th August), as I'll be in KL for Rodney King's seminar at KDTA.

Rodney will also be coming here to do a seminar at Studio 23 on the 13th of August! He will be covering CMD / MMA training.
Rodney King is the director and creator of the Crazy Monkey Defense Program, and is also a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Please note that on that evening there will be no Fizfit or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes.
