Description: Two years ago today, the world began closing its doors, and we became part of history. I spent some time this morning looking back at photos and text messages from this very day two years ago, and I was struck by how quickly and seriously we responded. The thought of not being able to access the community we built together felt (almost) inhumane, and so we created a plan to keep us connected no matter what — no matter how. Our team called for an emergency planning meeting and the goal established at the top of the meeting notes read, CORONAVIRUS DISCUSSION: We will focus on what we do best: loving our people + will look at our current practices to determine what needs to change in regard to the current virus “crisis.” (Side note: I laugh that the word crisis is in quotes. I guess when we wrote the word we weren’t ready to acknowledge that it was a true crisis.) In those incredulous and unprecedented days ahead, REFIT® HQ: ⭐️ Closed the doors to the REFIT® Studio and moved exclusively online ⭐️ Authorized (and encouraged) our instructors to offer online classes and provided training for the transition ⭐️ Gave away over 3,000 free REFIT® ON DEMAND memberships to help people stay active during the pandemic ⭐️ Launched the COVID19-day challenge specifically designed to gather and connect people through shared workouts ⭐️ Created kid-friendly workouts that we offered for free to school who needed online PE options for their kids. ⭐️ Taught online classes to an empty studio for the entire shutdown (I don’t think we ever missed a class?) In addition, Catherine, Emily, and I committed to showing up daily at the studio to film workout content, offer choreography workshops, and connect with our community in whatever (virtual) way we could think of. This trip down memory lane isn’t to say “Look at how much we did for our community” - it’s to say, “Look at how much our community did for US.” When I reflect on the “pandemic of 2020” (or whatever they end up calling it in the history books) I know without a doubt that pulling together for our community is what kept us from falling apart. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I’ve never felt a greater purpose in waking up each day knowing what I was doing and WHO I was doing it for.” This community gave us the motivation we needed to make it through the pandemic step-by-step and day by day. History may write its own version about the failure, sorrow, and tragedy of the pandemic, but in our REFIT history books we will tell the story of triumph, commitment, belonging, ingenuity, loyalty, and, most importantly, love.
