We're Celebrating our 5th Anniversary!
I can't believe it's our Fifth Anniversary already! As I say on our website's welcome page,
when I moved here from Vancouver in 2002 I had a vision of creating a
place that inspired me toward balanced, healthy living everyday.
I
wanted to work with people to create a gym that was not really a gym,
but a third place. A place that brings together soaring architectural
and interior design elements, with a holistic set of invigorating
services: drop-in for a personal training session or fitness class,
freshen up with complimentary Pure Fiji shower products, and slip into
a robe for a massage and pedicure, followed by a bit of lounging at the
raw juice bar with a healthy salad.
The
time has flown by. We've watched our clientele grow and made new
friends along the way. I’m excited about what we’ve built over the
last five years with the help of you, our staff and the Ann Arbor
community.
Our
year-long celebration kicks off Sunday, July 12th when we'll offer free
smoothies to the public (see article below). We'll celebrate in a new
way every month, and we'll keep you informed, so please take us up on
our offerings and celebrate with us!
We're
full of ideas and I'm thrilled to be starting our next five-year march
toward finding even better ways to serve Ann Arbor with opportunities
for balanced, healthy living! Thank you for being a part of it!

Our reusable Vie water bottles are scheduled to be
here by July 8th! These are high quality, 22-ounce aluminum bottles
with our Vie logo. They also commemorate our fifth anniversary and
include a key chain top.
The water bottles are great for filling up with our
citrus-infused cold water available upstairs. We'll of course still
provide bottles of water on request, but encourage everyone to bring
their own reusable bottle when convenient.
