Welcome to your new beginning!  Novare is Latin for "renewal" or "rebirth."  Renewal is either by choice or by circumstance.  I feel you can choose to renew anytime, for any reason!  I launched this venture because of my love for fitness and the great satisfaction I get from helping people achieve their goals in a friendly, helpful atmosphere.  I wanted to do something different for those of us looking for a new approach to group fitness:  a fitness program where we know your name, we care about you as a person, and you can have input to the classes you want.  Classes are designed to be safe, fun, and motivational for veteran cardio junkies and beginners alike.

        This concept gave birth to my ActvFit!^TM group exercise program.  My goal is to help you transform body, mind, and spirit to renew and build a better you, while developing life-long friendships.  Classes currently include:

- ActvLift^TM        Muscle conditioning
- ActvKick^TM           Cardio kickboxing
- ActvMove^TM     Yoga/pilates
- ActvDrill^TM      Boot camp
- ActvStep^TM       Step aerobics
- ActvSpin^TM       Indoor cycling
- ActvMix^TM        Combination of cardio and toning
- ActvCore^TM      Abs conditioning

        Norm and I have partnered with Chris Aldous and Gymnastics of York to get our adventure launched, and we are looking forward to a long and fruitful relationship.  We are starting out small, using those parts of the gym that will work for our initial class offerings, but Chris has big plans to help us expand into dedicated group fitness rooms over the next couple of years.  We will be offering more classes and different classes throughout the year.  For now, our evening classes will be held at the Salem Lutheran Church Grove Building, in Jacobus.  Most classes will be held indoors, but weather permitting, some will be outdoors too! 

        Our experienced instructors (We hire only the very best!), state-of-the-art fitness equipment, and can-do attitude are only a few of the things that make Novare Fitness^TM so unique.  We all share a common goal of making fitness a truly inspiring adventure.

        We are starting out offering 3-month memberships or a punch card system (which will not require a monthly commitment), and will allow you to attend classes as your schedule allows.  As you will see by the pricing plan, however, those who attend frequently will get the most value, both financially and from a fitness perspective.
