For those looking to increase their workout intensity
and drive phenomenal results, the circuit-styled
functional training of the BODYSTEP™ Athletic
variation is ideal. BODYSTEP™ Athletic uses short
bursts of circuit-inspired, functional training during
tracks 3,4 and 5. This part of the workout involves
45 seconds of intensity, followed by 30 seconds
of recovery. There is also an athletic circuit track
featured towards the end of the workout.
In Our Les Mills BODYSTEP class you’ll smile as much as you sweat while burning an average of 620 calories!

BODYSTEP™ is an energizing step workout that makes you feel liberated and alive. Using a height-adjustable step and simple movements on, over and around the step you get huge motivation from sing-a-long music and approachable instructors. Cardio blocks push fat burning systems into high gear and are followed by muscle conditioning tracks that shape and tone your body.
Benefi ts• Burn lots of calories for a leaner body
• Improve your strength through core conditioning work
• Raise your overall fi tness levels
• Improve your coordination
• Improve your bone health and density
• Increase your heart and lung capacity through a full-body cardio workout
How Often Should I Do BODYSTEP™?
Classes are best done with a rest day between them in order to give your body time to recover. On your “off ” days, consider a low-impact class like BODYBALANCE™. For best results, aim to take three BODYSTEP™ classes a week.

The Sweet Benefi ts of Molasses
Sugar. A sweet, crystalline substance that is often hard to resist-and avoid. From cookies and ice cream to pasta and barbecue sauces to canned fruit and yogurt, sugar fi nds its way into many of our everyday foods. And although we love it for its taste, sugar is not the best choice where nutrition is concerned. One healthier substitute is blackstrap molasses.

1C E L E B R A T I N G T H E B O D Y , M I N D A N D S P I R I T . Nutrition
How Blackstrap Molasses Benefi ts UsGood for hair – One serving (two tablespoons) of blackstrap contains approximately 14 percent of our recommended daily intake (RDI)of copper, an important trace mineral whose peptides help rebuild the skin structure that supports healthy hair. Consequently, long-term consumption of blackstrap has been linked to improved hair quality, hair regrowth in men and even a restoration of your hair’s original color!
Safe sweetener for diabetics – Unlike refi ned sugar, blackstrap molasses has a moderate glycemic load of 55. This makes it a good sugar substitute for diabetics and individuals who are seeking to avoid blood sugar spikes. Moreover, one serving of blackstrap contains no fat and only 32 calories, making it suitable for a weight loss diet.
Laxative qualities – Blackstrap is a natural stool softener that can improve the regularity and quality of your bowel movements.
Rich in iron – Two tablespoons of blackstrap contain 13.2 percent of our RDI of iron, which our bodies need to carry oxygen to our blood cells. People who are anemic (including pregnant women) will greatly benefi t from consuming 1-2 tablespoons of blackstrap molasses per day.
Taking Blackstrap as a Health SupplementThe best way to take blackstrap as a supplement is to mix between 1-2 tablespoons of it in a cup of boiling water and then drink it through a straw once the water has cooled. (The straw helps the molasses bypass your teeth.) This should be done daily, ideally fi rst thing in the morning when you need the energy most.
Finally, remember to purchase blackstrap that is organic and unsulfured. Two reputable brands of molasses in the United States that sell natural, unsulfured blackstrap are Grandma’s Molasses and Brer Rabbit Molasses,.

Skin care
With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season we can’t forget about taking care of our skin. Your daily regimen should include cleansing, toning, treating the skin with an active serum or concentrate, moisturizing, and protecting the skin with sunscreen.
For your weekly maintenance you should add a masque and exfoliant to the regimen. Remember, serums allow for deep penetration of the skin to infuse pure, active vitamins and herbs to treat skin issues and fi ght signs of aging. Exfo-liation is the key to vibrant skin. It unclogs pores, minimizes fi ne lines, and revives sluggish skin.
Celebration Day Spa recommends two products that combine the benefi ts of a serum and exfoliant into one. For the delicate eye area, the Eminence Neroli Age Corrective Eye Serum uses a natural retinol alter-native in combination with the Swiss green apple stem cell concentrate and neroli oil to visibly fi rm the eye area and smooth crow’s feet. For the rest of the face, the Eminence Bamboo Firming Fluid also uses the natural retinol alternative with phytocelltec Swiss green apple and bamboo to visibly fi rm, hydrate and brighten the skin.
The natural retinol alternative in both products helps to increase cell turn over and increase collagen levels while softening fi ne lines without the side effects of traditional retinols. Try them both today. Your skin will thank you for it.

Paradise MassageFeel the stresses of the day melting away during this full-body massage. Your therapist will customize your massage, making sure to give special attention to the areas you feel need it most. (50 minutes)
Purifying FacialUnwind and escape while both your mind and skin are being pampered and purifi ed. The impurities from the day will be cleansed away followed by a balancing toner. Then the build-up will be exfoliated away to open up the pores, making for easier cleaning. Treatment will continue using a customized masque for your skin type to increase the health of the skin and fi nish the service with the best-suited moisturizer to hydrate and balance the skin. Of course, the facial will conclude with the appropriate SPF sun defense to protect the skin. (50 minutes)
Deep Cleansing Back TreatmentYou are in for a treat during this thorough cleansing of the back. Throughout this treatment we use high-quality skin care products along with the wonderful Clarisonic Brush with its special body brush attachment.
