A one-stop mini-expo for people looking for ways to improve their fitness levels and general health is being held just outside Warkworth on Saturday, February 17.
Re-Set Fitness Health & Wellness will feature nine different half-hour workshops and classes on healthy food, physical exercise and mental wellbeing at the Candi Soo Fitness studio at 120 Goatley Road, between 9am and 2pm.
Organiser Candi Soo has been involved in the fitness industry for more than 35 years, and says she decided to put the holistic event together to motivate people.
“I understand how culture and approach to wellness works in different ways, so I approach fitness training in different ways. My best strength is to connect with people. Once you connect and relate, you can help them to get better and you bring the hope to their eyes – that makes me want to do more for them,” she says.
“So fitness training is not about me, it is about helping others to get better and feel good about themselves. There are many people needing motivation, so I decided to organise this event, together with other passionate speakers, to make the day full of fun, motivation and information, from fitness to nutrition, and different ways to re-set the beginning of the year with a kick.”
The mini-expo will start with a Barbell Matrix Class, followed by a look at how to find The Balanced Fitness Regime with Candi Soo. Nutritionist and Mahurangi Matters columnist Nicole Wilson will talk about easy, affordable superfoods, while Kathryn Jansen will show how to get more raw food in the diet. Missy Garcia will explain how to get the best out of essential oils. There will also be a Zumba class, a “Yogataal” class, and a session by Vicky Santiago called Shortcuts to a Healthy Mindset, which includes a group hypnotherapy session “designed to programme you for the habit of success”. The mini-expo will end with a fully interactive Drumming for Wellness workshop with Jacqui Barrett, who maintains that drums can be a powerful tool for healing and tension release.
Candi Soo says the event has been designed to bring together inspirational experts and speakers to empower people to become more healthy – physically, emotionally and mentally.
“Together, we can make a difference in each other’s lives,” she says. “This is a perfect opportunity to come together with friends and family and create awareness.”
Entry to Re-Set Fitness Health & Wellness is by gold coin donation, and the first 30 people to book will receive a special goodie bag.
