Pure Barre – Fitness Studio Review

Posted on July 17, 2014 | Filed Under: Fitness | Tags: barre fitness class, ClassPass, Pure Barre, Woodland Hills | Leave a Comment

As you can probably tell, I am addicted to group fitness classes. While I enjoy doing my usual cycle class or TRX class at my local YMCA, sometimes you just have to change up your routine. So a few weeks ago, I decided to try out Pure Barre in Woodland Hills. Mind you, this was the first class that I took after being back from a 2 week vacation to Utah & Arizona. So I was a little apprehensive about taking it. The class was taught by … [Read more...]

Like many Americans, during the 4th of July weekend, I headed to the beach. On that Sunday, I took my daughter to our favorite beach in Santa Monica to escape the San Fernando Valley heat.

When we do go on our next trip, we will be bringing this fun beach kit with us! The Daddy & Co.™ Beach Kit is perfect … [Read more...]

CocoZen™ Coconut Water – Product Review

Posted on July 13, 2014 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: cholesterol-free, coconut water, CocoZen, electrolytes | Leave a Comment

It’s another hot day in the San Fernando Valley! I’ve learned from living in LA that while many folks like to stay active & physically fit, another very important lesson is to stay hydrated. The intense heat is no joke in the SFV & you don’t want to be caught without water or some sort of liquid that can help cool you down & refresh you, especially after a tough workout. That’s why I’m glad to have had CocoZen™ Coconut Water on-hand … [Read more...]
