"Progress isn’t linear. My DCW journey has been more than just about fitness, it has been an education on the importance of good nutrition and learning that consistency creates results. The DCW community is a solid support structure, in which it’s ok to just keep trying, to pick yourself up and try again. We are women of all ages, all body types, and all fitness levels who continue to strive together, learn together, and die at least twice a week in the studio together. DCW encourages us to move through this journey with grace and that if we do fail, we always fail forward."

"Embrace the journey, prioritize your well-being, and remember that fitness is not just a physical transformation; it’s a mental transformation as well.

I exercise not just to stay physically strong but to feel mentally stronger and to cherish my overall well-being. Remember your mind can push your body to places you never thought possible."

"In my busy work and personal life, fitness brings me physical and mental stability. I can walk into the studio with the weight of my day on my shoulders knowing that after that one session, all the tension is released by focusing my mind on my movements. I can very quickly feel the impact on my body and mind when I miss one session, it’s as if my body craves that aspect of my life that brings me back into balance/to my center. It’s made me a stronger ‘human’ allowing me to physically push myself even when I feel I can do no more and a stronger ‘being’ allowing an emotional and mental release for concerns/stresses of life weighing on my mind. This balance brings my energy to a level that gets me through my week with a smile on my face no matter what comes my way. It’s a vibe, an energy source, a mental outlet, it’s a lifestyle."
