Boot Camp Beat Down with Patrice Jones of Fru-Fit
August 25, 2012
Boot camp frightens me. The drill sergeant instructors and intense military style goes against my soft and gentle yoga-based healing practice. But a friend suggested that I try Fru-Fit Saturday boot camps in Anacostia Park. I thought I’d give it a shot considering that I love to support exercise businesses in my neighborhood. Little did I know that the ladies would be supporting me as I barely survived the two hour boot camp beat down with Fru-Fit!
Fru-Fit is owned by Certified Personal Trainer Patrice Jones who started the company after weighing 203 pounds and losing her brother to obesity related complications. She loss the weight but gained a new passion for helping other women realize their health goals. The Anacostia native balances her business with motherhood and travelling as far as Baltimore to train her clients.
We then warmed up the body with sexy Zumba dancing by Marnell Hughes and finished out with a strength training circuit by Patrice Jones. The class was so intense that I had to sit out a circuit to prevent myself from getting light headed! I suggest that you come VERY hydrated and go at your own pace. I felt fantastic afterward and plan to comeback for the full session during the week.

Awesome! So proud of Patrice and what she is doing for our community 🙂
Patrice Jones is not to be played with. I always sing we want mucles all over our body from our head down to our toes, to motivate my sisters.
I had a great time and purchasing my pass for the Fall session!
My thighs are still burning!
