DC Get Ready To “Leave It On the Floor”

With a mission and goal to honor Women, highlighting the importance of Women’s Wellness and Fitness, PR WIZ, LLC presented the “Mind Body & Soul Women’s Wellness Fitness Tour” featuring MixFitz Studio Mrs. Crystal Wall of Houston, Texas.

A perfect start to Mother’s Day weekend, the MBSWWFT kicked off a Halftime Sports Bar, Saturday afternoon on H Street in Ward 5 DC.  Although I exercise twice a week, watching Instagram fitness classes from your smart phone has an different affect in real life!  Mrs. Wall introduced herself along with the #BAMFs.  The first song I’m like “oh my” this is getting intense, but I can’t stop now!  Another attendee says “we are enjoying it, and we’re about to die.”  Finally, a small break arrived for water, but not enough to cool you off; before it was time to “leave it on the floor” once more.

Getting Active is Life

The Mind Body & Soul Women’s Wellness Fitness Tour is important for many reasons beyond promoting the importance of Women’s Wellness and Fitness.  According to the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Division, heart disease is the leading cause of death for African American and White Women in the United States.  Other high risk factors include poor diet, and diabetes which is high levels of blood glucose resulting from defects in insulin production and action.  The MBSWWFT is a perfect choice to aid in prevention of these leading causes of death among African American and White women in the US.

Through facilitating adopting a healthy lifestyle nurturing the mind, body, and soul; attendees enjoyed delicious delights delicately made by @thelifestyleshift who wanted to bless attendees with good greens goodness “Alive Salad”.  These greens were soaked in various plant-based foods versus ham hock.
