Sports Thursday, October 6, 2016

Shula’s Athletic Club announced a “Blacklight for Breast Cancer” week to be held from Monday, October 24 to Sunday, October 30. During the week the club will host a series of fun and energetic-based classes and activities that are open to both members and non-members all conducted in a blacklight environment.

“We are very excited about this year’s lineup,” said Bill Higgs, Shula’s Athletic Club’s general manager. “On the heels of a very successful campaign last year that included a dodgeball tournament and raffling off autographed Miami Dolphins gear, we expect this year to be even better.”

The seven backlight events are slated to include group fitness activities like Pilates, spinning, circuit, Zumba, Strong by Zumba and Thrive Functional Training workouts. 

“Last year we raised over $1,700 for the Women’s Breast and Heart Initiative whose mission it is to save lives by connecting at-risk women with the prevention and early detection necessary to fight breast cancer and heart disease,” said Higgs. “We expect to top that number this year based on everything we have planned.”

Pre-registration to all events is required and space is limited. To view a schedule of events or to reserve a spot online, visit http://bit.ly/2d9S1gr
