A Note of Thanks

Whether your fitness journey started at Fhitting Room or continues with us, you already know that progress is often not linear.  Sometimes, it’s 2 steps forward, 1 step back.  It’s adding another 8kg to your deadlift, seeing a new split time on the rower and then experiencing a hiccup that takes you out of the studio for a few weeks or months.  You cannot control the journey.

This year we had to say farewell to some incredible team members and amazing clients as we closed chapters of priceless memories in some very loved spaces.  I spent a lot of time trying to determine if we could recover from that monumental step back.  But every time doubt crept in, I would get a text from one of you with glowing FHITpro feedback or catch an IG story with gratitude for our spaces that remain.  You would tag us while training with kettlebells on vacation or thank us for continuing to maintain LIVE!, even after we were able to reopen our studio doors.  It was one dose of encouragement after another and a reminder that we matter deeply to one another. 

In 2017, during the opening of the UWS studio I engaged in countless conversations with potential FHIXers, espousing what I knew to be true – that while we were new to the neighborhood, this was a really special place… and that if you gave us a chance, I could all but guarantee that you would agree.   Thank you for giving us a chance in 2017 and for rallying around us in 2024. 

While our kettlebell-shaped footprint may look different 7 years later, my appreciation for this community is boundless.  I am grateful for every opportunity to share laughs, high-fives, sweat-sessions, and life updates.  I am grateful for every email I receive with questions or feedback; you care enough to spend your valuable time engaged with us and that means so much to me.  I have cared deeply about Fhitting Room for a long time and my goal is to make it the best that I can for you.  

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to take a step forward.   

With immense gratitude,
