Happy New Year!
The New Year is always an exciting time of reflection and renewal. It's an opportunity to create new and stimulating goals.
Getting in shape and taming the bulge are among the top ten New Year's Resolutions. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, over 66% of American adults are overweight or obese.
Setting reasonable goals and staying focused are two important factors in sticking with a nutrition and exercise program. The key to success is having a support team to help you reach your goals.
Making simple changes like bringing healthy lunches to work, avoiding the sweets in the vending machine or participating in an on-site fitness class with co-workers are easy ways to make a long-lasting lifestyle improvement.
The Back Rub Company makes it even easier by offering a variety of nutrition workshops and healthy cooking classes, in addition to fun fitness classes right at your workplace.
Because 40+ hours per week are spent at the office, having the support of a network of co-workers will help keep you on track and build fun friendships.

January is Personal Self Defense and Crime Stoppers Month!
I'm a huge advocate of self defense for women and I'm proud to say that my martial arts studio will be hosting a workshop here in Phoenix next month.
Don't be another evening news story:
Victim rates of violent crimes have increased throughout the valley. Without warning, a situation can turn from safe to sorry.
Women who have even the most basic self-defense skills are less likely to become a target of crime.
Your Body is More Capable Than You Think!
Staggering Statistics:
One out of every three women will be assaulted in her lifetime;
More than 2 1/2 million women in the US experience violence each year;
Only 16% of rapes are ever reported to police;
One out of seven women will be assaulted by their husbands;
One in four college women have either been assaulted or have suffered attempted rape. In a survey of college women, 38% reported sexual victimization yet only one out of every 25 reported their assault to police - 78% knew their attackers;
39% of women who have been assaulted during their lifetime had been assaulted more than once;
The United States has the highest rape rate of the countries that report such statistics - four times higher than Germany, 13 times higher than England and 20 times higher than Japan.
This no-frills workshop designed to implement basic life-saving techniques for a variety of situations. Held over a course of two days so you can retain the information, digest what you've learned and refine your skills.
For women from all walks of life. Whether you work alone in a retail store, often have to walk to a parking lot or garage unaccompanied, live by yourself or want to be assertive in a group of unfamiliar people, the tools you'll receive are practical, effective and empowering!
Learn to:
Carry yourself so you will not be a weak target;
Defend against a variety of attacks and holds;
Move and strike with great force, no matter how big your attacker is;
Defend against multiple attackers;
Gain control of any bad situation ASAP;
Escape an attack on the ground;
Use everyday items as a lethal weapon;
Get help from others as quick as possible
You will practice your skills on a live assailant, and will receive handouts of the course material.
Where & When:
Sat. Jan. 24 & Sun. Jan. 25, 2009
2 - 4:30 p.m.
