Good evening, It is with a very heavy heart, that I announce I no longer am working for Life Time in Brookfield. I know this comes as a shock to many of you, and to others, less of a shock, and more of congratulations. I taught my very last class on Wednesday morning and I don’t think it’s how I thought my day would end up, but I almost have a sense of relief because you and I both believe in a community that doesn’t exist anywhere else. It will go wherever we do. It will grow bigger and better than we ever thought it could. It will have fought battles and learned lessons. It is a community that can never be replaced. You remember that and keep that in your heart until we meet up very soon!
There are many people in that building that I will miss and that I love dearly. So many people, I can’t even begin to count them.
You the army, came into my life at a time, when I was desperately seeking change, growth, and something different. What I didn’t know, was that the something different was a community that loved me unconditionally and showed up day after day and week after week. Words cannot express how grateful I am for the lessons, the memories and the family that followed. I needed that, and you were the ones there for me. As a matter of fact, some would say that because of you, I am here today. You built me up and gave me the confidence to be who I am. 
I’m the first one to say that group fitness in general has never been my jam, over the last three years I’ve learned to love it. It still has no comparison to cycle for me. Cycle is my love, Cycle is my passion, and Cycle is my life. Cycling is more than just putting on those shoes and spinning our legs in a repetitious motion. Cycle is about the power of connection and community and how that connection and community empowers one another to do really f**king hard s**t. So with that said, please keep doing really f**king hard s**t and protect the space that’s been created. 
It’s not goodbye. It’s see you soon!
Love,
DC
