On Saturday August 23rd, Impact Hub Philly was packed with more than 125 motivated women excited for a day full of fitness, fun and learning at this year’s 2nd Annual Fit Retreat hosted by City Fit Girls LLC, Kiera Smalls and Takia McClendon.
To kick off FitRetreat, City Sports Rittenhouse hosted a shopping event pre-party on Friday August 22nd from 7-9 p.m. Attendees had the opportunity to check-in for next morning’s FitRetreat early, shop for fitness gear with a 20% discount and enjoy samplings from Spodee Wine and FitRetreat sponsors, sweetgreen and Ryan Crowns Juice Club.
FitRetreat started bright and early at 8:45 a.m. with an introduction of the day’s events by the City Fit Girls. Fitness sessions included four hour-long classes beginning at 9 a.m. When attendees could catch a break, they had the opportunity to check out all of the amazing vendors by learning about each different product and purchasing something that caught their eye. Vendors included Soom Foods, 22 Days Nutrition, The Wellnest, THINX, Philadelphia Bike Share, New Balance and Grace & Glory Yoga.
FitRetreat’s presenting sponsor, Ryan Crowns Juice Club, distributed juices throughout the day to attendees and discussed each juice and the purpose of “juicing” during one of the nutrition sessions. There were also mental wellness sessions with topics such as positive body image and practical meditation. Sweetgreen offered an array of different vegan salads at lunchtime, which were a fan favorite that quickly vanished. The day ended with a distribution of gift bags, thanks to all of City Fit Girls’ FitRetreat amazing sponsors.
