You may remember Damien Walters from our Incredible Parkour post in May. Well, he is at it again, this time he has decided to play a game of “last one” with a few of his friends! Although the tricks may not be insane, it is super fun and very entertaining. Enjoy!!!
I know this looks like fun and like it may be easy, but it is not easy and you should NOT try this on your own!
Found this article on hula hooping and it reminded me of my best friend Jackie Brown, who recently started Jackiebrownhoops.com. Jackie found hooping and fell in love! She, like Christabel Zamor and many others swear by the health benefits hooping provides.
Recently I created Kid Relentless at Home, a series of fitness and gymnastics videos that can be done anywhere you can bring your computer. Essentially, you are taking a class with me outside the studio.
These are instructional videos that will enhance your skill level and strength and act as an addition to your classes or as a substitute! Check out Kid Relentless at Home!
On August 21, 2010 Team Relentless set out to compete in the Philadelphia Metro Dash. Crushing all the challenge points along the way, Team Relentless represented with style!

Thank you to all who competed and to those who came out to support us!!!
Today marks 90 years since women were given the right to vote. It is amazing to think that without those involved in the movement for women’s rights, I may not have had the opportunity to be who I am today!
Each day I do my best to be a strong and independent woman for myself and as a role-model to young girls. Being a teacher, I encourage my girls to be confident, ambitious, hard working and goal-oriented. However, ninety years ago it was not a woman’s role to be a thinker or a leader, instead it was to follow. Susan B. Anthony and other dedicated activist fought for our right to be equal in this country, and I am proud to reap the benefits of their efforts!
In honor of our 90 years, I would like to share this spectacular story that reflects the journey and struggle of a movement that paved the way for me and so many others – ENJOY!
“It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people — women as well as men.”
HARTFORD, Conn., Aug. 14, 2010 – Rebecca Bross of Plano, Texas, won her first Visa Championships all-around title with a score of 120.300 at the 2010 Visa Championships at the XL Center in Hartford, Conn. She also took top honors on both the balance beam and uneven bars, with a silver medal for the floor exercise.
“I felt really good,” said Bross, who trains at WOGA. “I made all of my routines and I did what I hoped to do. [Winning the Visa Championships] was always a big goal for me and I’m just happy to be able to do it now.”
On July 28th, 2010, Relentless Fitness hosted an Acro/Tumbling clinic for the KMC dancers. Eight students participated in an hour long class that focused on stretching, tumbling, and strength. We had so much fun, and the girls got to practice new elements that I know will enhance their dance ability!
Thank you so much to the KMC Dance program and to all the girls, you did a wonderful job!
Extra, Extra, Read All About It! Kid Relentless was featured in an article about kid fitness in Philadelphia. Check out the article at Philly.com
Holding Pellegrino’s hand, Jacob Weisgold, 21 months old, carefully maneuvered his way along a balance beam as his father, Dean Weisgold, looked on. “He’s so good!” Weisgold said. “Isn’t he?” said Pellegrino, beaming. Jacob jumped off the beam and grinned.
There are a lot of programs out there helping kids move, and Kid Relentless is happy to be among those motivating youth to be fit!
Thanks to all the parents who attended and Aubrey Whelan for the great piece!
The Philadelphia Inquirer stopped by Kid Relentless to do a story on kid fitness in Philadelphia. To all the parents who came out: Thank You! The kids were wonderful!
