Let me tell a little story...
About 6 and a half years ago, right after we opened our doors, we had new member who joined us named Jessie.
Jessie had not long just had her 4th child and was getting back into training and had joined the gym with a small group of friends.
They trained together for quite a while, mostly at 9:30, all juggling kids, partners, work and everything else the regular daily life throws at mums.
Over the years some of this group stayed, some left and some left then came back.
In this time Jessie herself continued to train and to continued to make amazing progress, year after year. She also brought her partner to the gym and he quickly became one of the fittest blokes around.
And now as the years have passed all 4 of Jessie's children are in our kids and teens classes, and they love it too.
When I originally took this video it was just meant to be of some teens doing rope climbs, which is already pretty cool. But after I took it I realized that somehow in a busy and chaotic Teens class I had managed to capture both of Jessie's eldest 2 girls up the rope at the same time.
It made me think about how cool it is that what our gym has become has had such a positive impact on an entire family. And how that family has already has such a great impact on our gym and our community too.
