Aurorae Aqua Beach/Swim Towel Review

Prior to the holidays I was contacted by Aurorae if I was interested in reviewing one of their beach/swim towels. Aurorae is a family business and e-retailer founded by yoga student and cancer survivor, Dennis Ingui.  I've been a user of their yoga towels (a must for hot yoga) for the past year and had no idea they expanded their line to include beach/swim towels.  Image: Aurorae When I received my towel I was happy it was in their Sanibel Sunrise…

TKO Soft Grip Jump Rope Review

Image: TKO Sports Group Did you know on average a person can burn 10 calories/minute jumping rope? Do you have jump rope memories from gym class? Before I left on my vacation I was able to try the new TKO Soft Grip Jump Rope.  When contacted about this opportunity, I thought it would be a good way to add some variation to my cardio workouts.  One of my trainers use to have me jump rope for 2 minutes in between…

RBX Active Review – Digital Camo Leggings

Image: RBX Active RBX Active was founded three years ago by President and CEO, Eli Yedid.  The company features fashion-active apparel and  accessories at prices "that are realistic for today's active consumers".  RBX Active designed their clothing so it could transition from the gym to the street (or in my case....leggings for days).  I was excited to try their clothing when I was given the opportunity to review a pair of their Digital Camo Leggings. The Digital Camo Legging is…

I’m Flyyinnng – FlyWheel DC Review

New cycling/or barre studios have been popping up all over DC (here is my RIDE DC review from last year).  This past month Flywheel opened a studio in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC.   Housed in a former theater, this location is their largest studio with over 60 bikes and a space dedicated for Flybarre classes.  Cycling studios such as Flywheel and SoulCycle are on the pricier side, so I was not planning on trying a class unless there happened…

Lindi Skin Product Review

Image: Lindi Skin A few weeks ago I was contacted about an opportunity to review a few products from a skin care line.  What good timing as (1) My skin was feeling the effects of winter (dry dry dry), (2) My current skin care products were running low, and (3) I wanted to explore other brands at different price points (and potentially save money); enter Lindi Skin, "Skincare on a Mission".  CEO Lindy Synder founded the company when she noticed…

Kushyfoot Product Review

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Lipton Publicity if I was interested in reviewing a few products from Kushyfoot’s Fall Winter 2014-2015 line. According to their website, Kushyfoot “is the first brand in women’s legwear to incorporate the ancient healing art of Reflexology….By creating socks, hose and sandals that integrate a massaging cushion designed by Reflexology experts, Kushyfoot helps relieve tension and discomfort in achy feet—and stress and fatigue throughout the entire body.” Image: Kushyfoot I practically live…

Spin Me Round and Round – Ride DC Review

January 27, 2014 I hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine was rather eventful and packed with activities.  I am exhausted - in a good way! Last week I received an email from Ride DC about their Saturday Community Rides.  Ride DC is a new indoor cycling studio in my neighborhood (located in the 14th/U Street corridor for those local to DC).  Logo: Ride DC Because I belong to a gym that offers excellent cycling, yoga, and barre classes I…
