We have more exciting news from one of our regular clients! Iveta Lukosiute, a national and world champion in Latin ballroom dance, schedules regular GYROTONIC sessions at Fluid Fitness to keep her smooth moves competition-ready. Recently Iveta vied with contestants from all over the country for a spot on Fox's So You Think You Can Dance Season 8 and landed a coveted spot in the top 20 on popular TV show! These best of the best fly to Las Vegas and tape the show with weekly challenges and eliminations. Iveta and the other contestants work with renowned choreographers who test their technical and performance skills with different styles. A panel judges their performances and the viewing audience votes who will go forward in the competition. 

We are proud to see that Iveta made it past the first round of eliminations and though we may not see her on our TV screens in the coming weeks, we are more than happy to see her in person at the studio.

Congratulations, Iveta!

We can't say it often enough, taking time for yourself puts you at your best so you can take on the best. Come on in, we'll have performance-ready in no time!

Behind the Scenes

We often praise the accomplishments of our clients and the work our instructors do to keep you in tip-top shape. This time we turn the spotlight on our administrative staff. GYROTONIC practitioners themselves, they keep the studio running smoothly and also make news-worthy splashes of their own.

Gabriela Lee is a member of the staff that helps Fluid Fitness look good and she has three ventures of her own that can keep you looking good as well. She is a stylist for Style with Glee and Stella and Dot and an executive district manager for Arbonne.  Her work caught the attention of The Freelancer's Union who featured her in their Spring 2011 NYC subway campaign. They also interviewed her about being an entrepreneur; you can read the feature on their blog. Her knack for juggling responsibilities with grace, fearlessness and style are just a few of the reasons we are proud to have her on board.

Gabriela's undertakings are more proof that taking care of yourself prepares you take on the world. Check out her websites, your next visit to the studio can have you taking care with style!
