Happy March, sweet friends!
Yes! March is here! A new month and a fresh start and Spring is in the air! This month at TransFit we are so excited to announce some BIG changes happening at TransFit! New sessions, new trainers, revived workouts, focused nutrition packages, and a new focus for outreach in the community! We are focusing on the word HOPE for March and how we can best serve you and others. One of our very own personal trainers, Shelley Tanner, has started her own non-profit organization called Hope 139. Hope 139 is inspired by Psalm 139.
Shelley Tanner had a God-sized dream to create a ministry to support women who are less fortunate. She has started Hope 139 House, Inc. TransFit is partnering with Hope 139 House to transform all types women by donating a percentage of our retail profit to support this amazing, new ministry. We also would love to get our incredible TransFit community of inspiring women (you) involved in supporting this ministry. What an amazing opportunity for us to continue to lift up women less fortunate in this community! Encouraging others inside and outside of the TransFit studio! Check out the information below to learn more about Hope 139 and the plans and needs for the ministry!
