September 2016 News Update

Hi there FIT2FITER’s

Hope all is good and you are happy and healthy. A lot has happened in the last 3 months and we apologise for being a little late with our update.

Summer Sizzler

So what’s been going on since last time. Well first of all we had a fantastic Summer Sizzler. The event gets bigger and better every time. Added a twist to the event with special guest slots form F2F Instructors, Natalie Williams, Claire Burton and Ross Mathieu. Collectively the F2F Team loaded  all the attendees to the brim with energy, drive and confidence enabling them to push themselves that little bit further.

Summer Sizzler 2016

Thanks for a superb demonstration from International Karate athlete Natalie Williams and Fit2fite Founder, Greg Francis. Exquisite execution of F2F Techniques and the beautiful, effective Martial Art that is Karate. Not forgetting the jaw dropping demonstration from the Veras brothers of Veras Karate Academy. Simply superb forms execution from a 10 and 12 year old.

Of course FIT2FITE’s sponsors 3NESS Luxury Weekenders and Partners, Elite Nutrition and Nutri-BombZ Protein foods powered the FIT2FITER’s through a mixture of a booming sound system, on point nutritional advice and rehydration and bespoke protein foods.
