10 years ago this month I opened the doors to this little business I named BODY ADE. The ADE was meant for people to think of as aid. Aid to your body. The movement I knew most people needed.
To me the ADE meant that and so much more. It was the initials of my daughters and myself. Alicia, Drew and Elva.
My hopes in starting this little business was to 1 - create a safe space where all body types felt welcome and 2 - build something that would make my daughters proud.
It was scary and I had no idea how to run a business but a woman who believed in me lent me $5000.00 and told me “you can do this.” So I did.
A decade later and It’s still scary but I’m still doing it.
Thank you to my daughters and my family for supporting me and my job that is truly a dream come true, thank you to all of my members who I consider family for your continued support even when I’m not at my best and thank you to anybody who has booked even just that 1 class - You’ve challenged me to do better at getting clients back for a second class 🤍
My energy and heart will always be devoted to helping individuals feel healthy, strong and confident ❤️
Cheers 🥂to another 10 years 🙌🙏. Im so very proud of me!
