Ladies, gentlemen, this is an AMAZING giveaway. Let me tell you a little bit about it. First of all, it’s a full month of personal training in January. What? Wha? Huh? Yes, the perfect month, right? Who doesn’t absolutely need a personal trainer in January? Second, it’s right here in Orange and my new friend, Lucas Enge, makes house calls (not for this giveaway, you have to come to the gym, but to everybody else…house calls!)! All I’ve got to say is…YOU BETTER ENTER FOR THIS ONE!

This is on more of a personal note, but I wanted to share with you that last Friday night, my son took his first Belt Test at our local PaKua Studio in the Plaza. I was unable to be there and my sister-in-law took these pics for me (thanks BJ). I’m sharing them because, as a mom, I feel so proud looking at my 6-year old boy be so proud of himself for passing his first belt test and becoming a Yellow Belt. If you have little ones (or even older ones, or even yourself!) that are looking for a structured sport, to have fun and to really learn something that’s much more than just physical, you might check out PaKua. I’ve written them up before in more detail and you can click HERE for that post. Enjoy the photos of this proud mama!

If you’ve driven through the traffic circle in Old Towne Orange, then you’ve no doubt seen the PaKua studio located on the corner where Plaza Square meets W Chapman. Since 2009, this location has provided the Plaza with a little extra energy, what with all the Martial Arts, Yoga, Acrobatics, Tai-Chi and more happening behind their big glass picture window.

I am a big proponent of Acupuncture, Osteopaths and other non-traditional types of treating your body’s issues. There have been many times in my life that I have used these types of doc’s to heal whatever it is that I’ve done to myself. Though, there was this one time that my step-dad gave me whiplash while trying to steal my winnings from a very serious game of Kanasta. Yep, he tried to steal a quarter from me and won! I had to go to the ER and had neck problems for EVER that were finally healed from a wonderful Osteopath in Santa Barbara, my first taste of non-traditional methods of healing. Since then, I’ve been hooked.
