Bloquv All Year Long
Did you know there are multiple benefits to continuing to wear your Bloquv clothing during the winter?
Hitting the slopes this season, don’t forget your skin still needs protection from those bright UV rays (especially since high altitude and reflective surfaces, such as snow and ice, cause these rays to shine down even stronger).
You can learn more about wearing Bloquv during the winter here, or stop by to check out the clothing in person.
Don’t forget, we’re still offering 25% off our Bloquv products at BeFit SRQ!

New Year, No Pain
If you’ve still got some nagging pain from a past injury, arthritis, or almost any other cause, Laser Therapy can help.
We’re currently offering $25 off Laser Therapy sessions, making it the perfect time to give this painless and benefit-filled treatment style a try.
Contact us today if Laser Therapy sounds like it could be right for you.

2021 Fun
Check out the events below for some entertaining ways to get out and about in the new year:
If you need a place to let loose and celebrate this month, the Burger and Beer Festival is a perfect way to do so. It’s taking place on January 23rd and 24th, 11 AM-5 PM. Just remember to get right back on track with your healthy eating when you leave!

This exhibit featuring German artist Janaina Tschäpe is filled with calming paintings, drawings, sculptures, and more. The overall theme is captivating as each piece fits into the puzzle, and the landscapes slowly change from land to water to outer space.
The incredible exhibit will be open from now until May 2nd, 2021 at the Sarasota Art Museum. You can learn more about the talented artist and her pieces on display by clicking here.

Experience Outdoor Art
The Photo Fence is still covered in amazing photos at Nathan Benderson Park, and it’s a viewing you won’t want to miss. Embracing Differences at Bayfront Park is a meaningful sight to see as well.


2020 may have been tough, but we’re strong enough to take on 2021 with a goal to grow. Let’s place our focus on moving forward, increasing strength, and overall movement as we go. It’s key to good fitness and health, and it’ll help us enjoy this new year (no matter what it may bring).
