    🚨 Member of the Month 🚨 Congrats 🥳 to As 🚨 Member of the Month 🚨

Congrats 🥳 to Ashley @ashleyquan for being a 🌟 and upping her game over the last couple of months!

We’ve caught up with this local celebrity for a quick interview:

What made you join Sister Fit?

✨ My bestie Kim, couldn’t stop singing songs of praise for Sister Fit and BEGGED me to just try a trial class with her. 

Joke was on me, because it became super clear why she loved the gym so much!

How old are you, how do you like to identify?

✨ I’m in my early-mid-late twenties (28) and I identify as a mixed chinese and white girly who is just trying her best to figure things out. 

But mostly, I identify as a dork. 

What would you say to help encourage another person to join our gym?

✨ It’s truly the best!

I’ve always left class feeling better than I did going in!

The people are kind, and it’s nice to be in a space where everyone is trying their hardest without it feeling intimating or daunting. 

Plus, you  kinda feel like a bit of a badass. 
 
What are some differences that you have noticed in your mental and physical health?

✨ It has done wonders for both my mental and physical health, tbh! I think everyone’s health was impacted by the pandemic - and in that way my experience is not a unique one.

I found that my body was aching trying to support some of my new (fun & fresh) pandemic weight, especially my knees.

I honestly have not noticed my knees bothering me at all since I started going to Muay Thai classes regularly! (I didn’t even realize it until a friend had mentioned I stopped whining about it!) Mentally, it does me so much good!

I often come in feeling pretty low and crummy, but I always leave feeling more energized, more accomplished, and in far better spirits! 

What's your favorite food?

✨ Wings. Steak. Anything my grandma makes. Fries. Maybe wings. Let’s go with wings. Hot & honey wings. Final answer. 
 
What's your favorite exercise?

✨ Punching combos. 

What do you do for your work?

✨ I’m in marketing! 

What are you passionate about? 

✨ Not being jerkface*
(*unless someone is a jerkface first, lol.)
I’m passionate about food, personal relationships, and progressive politics. 

WAY TO GO, ASHLEY!
