What Brings the DeMelis Family to Fore Court
“I enjoy the fitness classes,” Christy says. “I’ve been taking those since I joined. The instructors are motivating and knowledgeable, and the classes are good for people in any age range — you always feel included.” Christy has attended GRIT for the last five years and recently joined Melissa’s new Tread and Shred program. The program’s dynamic interval training has changed the way Christy feels about treadmills. “I hate the treadmill, but I love a good challenge,” Christy says of the motivating workout. Mike looks forward to getting into the weight room for weightlifting and cardio. The couple’s daughter often comes along with them, and while she’s not quite old enough for the workouts (she’s nine), she’s grown up at Fore Court to some extent. “We’ve been bringing her to daycare since she was nine months old,” Christy says. Fore Court is a place where the DeMelis family can stay fit and get the whole family in on the fun. It provides a healthy outlet for challenging days. “It’s my sanity and stress relief,” Christy says.
We’re excited to spotlight the DeMelis family this month and share a bit more about this active family who’s been coming to Fore Court for the last 13 years. Christy and Mike are regulars in our fitness classes and also weight lift, so they often come in five days a week. “We love it here,” Christy says. “We love that it’s family run.” It’s the welcoming, family-friendly environment and engaging classes that keep them coming back. Have a Laugh!
Thank you, Christy and Mike, for being part of the club! We love our members!
