Good Friday Bootcamp at 23W: Sweating for a Good Cause
By Ange
This Good Friday, 23W members and newcomers alike came together in an extraordinary show of community and fitness, not just to challenge their physical limits but to contribute to a cause that touches hearts far beyond the studio walls. Over three energising sessions, we were thrilled to welcome more than 60 participants into our studio, each bringing their own unique energy and determination to the floor.
Thank-you to everyone who bought a friend, partner or colleague to join us.
A Cause Close to Our Hearts
Our collective effort wasn’t just about getting a good sweat. We are proud to announce that together, we raised $1,413 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Appeal, a testament to the generosity and spirit of our amazing community.
The Journey Through Fitness
The day kicked off with an engaging AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) session that set the high-energy tone. Participants grooved along to the amazing beats from DJ Kristen from Melbourne Event Company who set the tone for what was to come. Our main block was dived into three stations, each blending weights, cardio, and core exercises to challenge and improve all aspects of our fitness.
The crescendo of our event was the good old-fashioned Egg and Spoon Relay.
Celebrating Our Champions
A highlight of the day was celebrating the winners of our raffle, with a special congratulations to Amy R, who walked away with the major prize, including a 23W prize bundle, an assortment of Easter chocolates, and a PT voucher.
A Glimpse Into the Day
The energy, the smiles, and the sheer effort of the day were captured in a series of photos that we are excited to share with you. We invite everyone to check out the gallery from the day on our website, relive the memorable moments, and maybe even spot yourself or your friends in action!
