❤️‍🩹 BELIEVE! ❤️‍🩹

Today we celebrated Debby Strenkofsky’s Debby Strenkofsky SIX month anniversary from her double knee replacement surgery in our Stop Drop and Dance class!

Not only is she dancing 60 minutes 2-3x a week, but she also helps to lead our Wednesday 75 minute Strength and Stretch class on Zoom!

We also sent our love and prayers to Laura Briggs Laura Briggs who has been recovering from her breast cancer surgery. She is beginning her first day of a month of daily radiation tomorrow.

Physical healing, mental healing, spiritual healing…
we need ALL three! Plus a community of friends and family that send us positive healing energy!

Everyone faces different types of life challenges but we hope that Debby’s and Laura’s story can inspire you!

BELIEVE you will recover.
BELIEVE you will heal.
BELIEVE you will overcome.

Whatever you are facing…
It’s not easy, but it is possible…
Keep showing up, keep putting in the hard work, keep fighting… and always keep BELIEVING 🙏🏻

If you show up to class matching someone else,
Don’t be surprised if you end up in front of class!

Thank you to Kristen Lombardo Sperling Anne Kaplan and Debby Strenkofsky for leading us perfectly to our favorite song from Meghan Trainor in last Saturday’s Stop Drop and Dance class!

🩷An update on Laura’s breast cancer journey…🩷

Thank you to this beautiful community for all your prayers, thoughts, meals, gifts, and support for Laura Briggs these past few months.

Laura had a successful breast surgery at the end of June and was finally recovered enough to be able to come to class for the first time this week. We were thrilled to dance with her again!

Next in Laura’s journey will be 4 weeks of radiation everyday, followed by medications, but everything looks good and she is on her way to conquering her breast cancer completely.

Please keep Laura in your prayers, and for those of you who are also going through a season of darkness and difficulty, know you are not alone in your journey. You’ve got this. 🩷

Those who seek find.
To those who knock it is opened.”
- C.S. Lewis

❤️ Happy Birthday Kathleen Dowd and thank you for raising $1395 for Communi-T! ❤️

On Saturday morning, we had the pleasure of celebrating Kathleen Dowd’s birthday Kathleen (Kate) Dowd for the third year in a row with a 60 minute Stop Drop and Dance fundraiser class at !

This year, Kathleen chose to raise money for an organization called Communi-T, which has a vision of creating a future where every family, regardless of their background, has access to equitable, high-quality maternity care during the most critical moments of their lives.

Kathleen chose the songs for her playlist and the theme was GLAM GIRLS! Thank you to all of you who were able to join in-person or online on Zoom! A special shout-out goes to Kathleen’s special guests including her sister, Kristen Kristen Dowd Addicks, her daughter, Annika, her daughter’s boyfriend, Cameron, her 8-month-pregnant niece, Annalise, and her friend, Glenda!

We are so grateful for your kindness, generosity, and support, in celebrating Kathleen’s birthday in the most meaningful and impactful way: giving back to our community!

💛 Dance and Donate to Communi-T for Kathleen Dowd’s Birthday! 💛

Please join us this Saturday, July 25th, from 9:30am-10:30am (240 Channing Way in San Rafael) as we celebrate Kathleen Dowd’s Kathleen (Kate) Dowd Birthday by raising money for Communi-T! The theme will be GLAM GIRLS, so please come in comfortable clothes and shoes that shine!

A note from Kathleen:

“I chose this organization because I’ve been involved in raising money and advocating for improving maternal and reproductive health for decades.

CommuniT Is an organization started by a young entrepreneurial woman who is creating mobile clinics to provide care for immigrant communities and communities who cannot receive care otherwise.

She is buying vans and outfitting them as clinics, and hiring midwives to provide the care.

I want to support her important work and the communities she serves.”

Even if you cannot make our dance class, please consider supporting Kathleen’s birthday fundraiser! All donors will receive an on-demand recording after our class!
