REFIT® Revolution


Get REFIT® at Beltway

Hello, Our names are Leah Hammett and Lisa Tickner! We have been asked by Deanna to write a blog post to explain a little more about "Get REFIT® at Beltway," and our heart behind how this all got started…
Leah Hammett and Family

First of all, Lisa and I have a love for dance fitness! We were both runners before, and would often run together. After years of running we joined a dance fitness community here in Abilene and have loved the community and the non-stop fun that we have when we workout! We have an hour of dancing and fun while burning calories…what more could you ask for, right?

Lisa Tickner and Family
This past February, after a prompting from the Lord, Lisa and I started brainstorming faith based dance cardio programs. In doing so we came across REFIT®! REFIT® was founded in Waco, Texas. Three women with a heart for faith, dance, and fitness created a dance cardio program that focuses on the whole person: Body, Mind and Soul. As you can imagine Lisa and I fell in love with this idea and felt the Lord's prompting to go become instructors. So, by faith alone…not knowing if Beltway would house REFIT®, we drove down to Waco, Texas and received our REFIT® Instructor certifications! After this, it was time to WAIT on the Lord's timing. We prayed daily for God to make REFIT® a reality at Beltway. In May, that desire became a very real and exciting reality! And now we "launch" our first REFIT class at Beltway on August 25th! 

Our heart is women! We wanted to create a safe place for women to come for 1 hour! In that hour, they would experience fitness, build community, and feel loved and empowered to go back to their day to day activities and "to do" lists! We believe that community changes people, that every woman has a super power, and it is our goal to remind women of these things, so they themselves can feel empowered beyond their workout! REFIT® brings together varying fitness levels, sizes, ages, beliefs and values through a shared fitness experience. The REFIT® experience combines positive music and movement with a value-focused environment that impacts the body, soul and spirit.

What does a REFIT® class look like: 

~REFIT® is 50 minutes of dance cardio and toning, with low, mid and high impact for all ages and ability levels.

~The last 10 minutes of class is where we get to empower and encourage community and uplifting words between women. 

We want to focus on YOU as a WHOLE person. We believe in women. We believe in relationships and community. We believe in YOU.
 
Come join us and start your own REFIT® Revolution!

Was it, like…: 3 minutes – reading daily devotional 14 minutes – reading the Bible 8 minutes – praying, (using the ACTS meth...
