Today I rode with Roland…
It was the first time since 2022 - when JABS closed
When JABS was born in 2011, Roland came on board and history was made
JABS became the go to place for group fitness and Roland was the spin leader
Together we created a community that is still talked about today
It took me 3 years to ride with Roland again… probably bc I was afraid of remembering what I lost
And I was right, I was brought to tears in today’s class
I was reminded of the amazing people, trainers/ instructors, and energy that was JABS
I don’t think I ever mourned JABS
I had to pivot and keep on going, bc that’s life
But today, in Roland’s class, I mourned …but
I also felt pride
How cool is it to create something that leaves a mark on this world
JABS was my first born and I am so proud of what she accomplished
To everyoneI that was a part of it, I thank you, appreciate you, and you will always have a special part in my heart for you
I continue to bring the same drive and enthusiasm to Jill Schroeder Training
So if I haven’t seen you, stop in for some burpees
