Win 3 Free Classes At Beyond the Barre

Ah, Thanksgiving week! All that cooking and baking (and tasting) and eating! It is so easy to lose track of time and miss out on exercise this time of year.

Luckily the American Council on Exercise (ACE) has created Workout Wednesday, a collective effort toget moving and engage in fitness activities on Nov. 27, the day before Thanksgiving. According to their website, “To inspire participation, ACE is hosting a photo contest on Twitter and Instagram beginning today. Everyone who uses the hashtag #ACEWorkoutWed alongside a photo of themselves participating in a fitness activity will be automatically entered to win prizes each week in November. On Workout Wednesday, Nov. 27, a grand prize winner will receive a trip for two to the ultra-luxury wellness and spa resort Zoëtry Agua Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic.

Well, we don’t want to miss out on the fun, so we have created our own Workout Wednesday contest! Share a photo of yourself working out (whether it’s walking, running or doing Pilates) on our Facebook page, and you’ll be entered into a random drawing to win a 3-class card! Three complimentary exercise classes just for sharing a photo of you exercising!

In addition, we’ve added a Thanksgiving morning class — 7 a.m.! — to help you make sure you are ready to tackle that feast later in the day.

Log onto our website — http://www.beyondthebarrect.com/ — for the full class schedule.
