Blakely FIT Goodbye

Dear clients and readers,

It has been an honor and privilege to be a part of your lives and part of your journey to live healthfully. Your trust, work ethic, and willingness to achieve something better have consistently been an inspiration. You are truly, the best aspect of my career.

After 12 years of owning Blakely FIT, I must say goodbye and bring my full professional attention to a new endeavor, See Jane Train.

Please enjoy a quick video expressing our gratitude and recap of the last 12 years of Blakely FIT.
The official launch of my new company, See Jane Train is this morning. I would love for you to take a peek, like and share.

I sincerely hope you would be willing to stay in touch. As always, I wish you every healthy happiness! And, I am eternally grateful for your patronage, participation and trust.

Fondly, Michelle

It was a joy to be featured in “8 Things Every Personal Trainer Knows (and You Should too)” in Prevention Magazine. Cindy Kuzma seemlessly combines brilliant tips from top trainers and offers compelling solutions to common fitness hurdles.

I love talking about fitness solutions for women so it was a joy to be interviewed by Oprah.com Health Editor, Emma Haak. We talked tricks and tips and actually stumbled upon a few ideas for another article. (Fingers crossed.)

It’s an honor to be included on such a popular site along such reputable trainers.
I hope you’ll smile at my advice and share or like.

Many thanks!

Gratitude on the Fourth

Happy Fourth of July everyone!

AmericanFlag
I am overwhelmed with gratitude as I reflect on this celebration of independence, freedom and all things great and worthwhile about our country. I am a woman, mother, wife and small business owner. As imperfect as our young country may be, being a U.S. citizen has afforded me the opportunity to build a business of my own accord providing a valuable service for my clients and income for my young family.

None of it would be possible with out the readership, social media support and patronage of you, my clients and readers. My utmost thanks for your support, feedback and trust.

I wish you and yours a wonderful holiday together and a moment of reflection for the freedom and independence we each hold dear.

Career Day Gratitude

What a pleasure! Many thanks to the Hickory Creek staff and students for inviting me to present for career day, yesterday. I appreciate your attention and loved your thoughtful questions on owning your own businesses and pursuing a career in personal training.
