Congratulations To Employee Of The Month - Buddy Cruz!

Buddy is an incredible instructor at the club! You will find him dancing away on Sundays during Groove or bright and early teaching cycle. Buddy moved here 30 years ago right out of college to work in SLO. His favorite part of working at ABAC are the staff and members. Everyone is so genuinely friendly it's contagious! His favorite thing to do is sing and dance in his spare time and also when he DJs on the weekends. Most people don't know that he is an accountant. He moved to SLO to work as an accountant for Caltrans. People say he doesn't seem like an accountant, which he takes as a compliment. Congratulations Buddy! 

 

Spa News

I love this time of year. Fall brings family time, pumpkin pie, and HOT STONE MASSAGE!
So, take a walk on the Bob Jones Trail. Listen and feel and look carefully at the signs of change. Look around you and look within you. Contemplate, reflect, and inquire then let it happen. Change is good and you will indeed land exactly where you need to be...

Schedule a HOT STONE MASSAGE in our beautiful Spa! Our friendly front desk staff will be happy to schedule your treatment.

In our cozy Salon we offer beautiful nails, new hairstyles and healthy hair, Pevonia Facials, and Waxing. Sandra, Rayna, Nancy and Christi are here to make you feel and look beautiful!
Here's to a beautiful fall ...whatever it brings!

Unfortunately, car break-ins occur. Please do not leave valuables (phones, laptops, purses, workout bags, etc) visible in your vehicles. Ladies, be aware that when you enter the club with a water bottle and keys, a thief knows that your purse and wallet are still in your car. We ask everyone to please lock up all your belongings in a locker. We have high end locks that will keep your stuff safe. Please lock ALL items up, ALL of the time (even keys and phones while not in use). This includes while you take a shower or go for a swim. Please do not leave any items unattended. Thank you!

Fitness Update

Please Welcome Our New Trainer Paul!

img

"I have been in the field of physical therapy for 30 years, and have been licensed as a PTA for 28 years. I have a BS in exercise science and graduate studies in the same. We recently moved to the Central Coast to be closer to family while raising our six year old girl. Currently I work in home health doing physical therapy but really wanted to do something independently of physical therapy on my own. I have also been a certified strength and conditioning specialist since 1991. It is exciting that I have joined the personal training staff here at the club. My passion is people and I enjoy helping others with injury or performance improvement using my well versed and extensive knowledge in body work."

Please email [email protected] if you are interested in meeting Paul.
