Event Recap:
On behalf of all of Rae Studios and The Bay Club SF, we want to say thank you to who all who came out and supported local artists in dance, movement, and wellness at our second outdoor event on Sunday, April 11th. We kept the party jumping with FOUR high-energy classes under the sun and a gorgeous view of the Bay!
We'd like to take a moment to highlight our incredible instructors! Chris Rodriguez leading our Power of Now: Breathing, Visualization and Flow class. Chris made us feel like we could conquer the world and warmed us up perfectly for some cardio kickboxing with Jessica ft. the cardio kickboxing crew: Chang, Thara, and Jenna who've been getting some great practice in with their Decathalon inflatable boxing bags at home! Shruthi and Chandni were an unstoppable force in their BollyX class! There was not a dry shirt in SIGHT! Only laughter, smiles, and stellar dance moves. Finally, what a finale Jeremy Jones was with his cardio dance celebration! The Bay Club roof was literally bouncing and we never wanted it to end. Thank you to this spectacular #RaeCrew!
