Dear Core Family,
The global pandemic has undoubtedly been a challenging time for us all, personally and professionally. After spending a few days in shock, Sarah and I understood that we had to pull ourselves up by our boot-straps and figure out what we were going to do. We quickly realized that we had a tough decision to make. Essentially, we had two terrifying polar opposite paths before us:
Path #1. We could pack it up.
We could say our goodbyes to all of our amazing instructors (who have become like brothers and sisters to us). We could say goodbye to our amazing members. We could just cut our losses, minimize the damage, and pray that our entire extended #corefamily would hopefully understand and forgive us one day.
Or-
Path #2. We could choose to fight.
We could choose to spend our quaran-time sharpening our tools. We could seize the opportunity provided by the stillness to deep-dive into the nitty-gritty of our business and ask ourselves the tough questions; What is it that we do at Core? What does Core stand for? Who do we stand for? Why are we doing this? What truly matters to us as stewards of our #corefamily? And where do we want Core to go as a business?
As it turns out, there wasn't much of a choice to be made. So here we are. We've adapted Core's business model to fit our new reality. We have asked and answered the tough questions. Not only did we weather the storm, but Core has also emerged stronger, more focused, and ready to serve our members on their fitness journey better than ever.
We are ready to meet Core's Mission:
To empower individuals through fitness in a supportive and inclusive environment.
We are ready to pursue Core's Vision:
To provide education, personal connection, and encouragement to those on the journey to a healthier lifestyle.
We are confident that Core's Values will lead the way by reminding us what's important when making business decisions:
* delivering Quality
* fostering Relationships
* continual Learning
* facilitating Success
We can't wait to write the next chapter of your story with you! Let's do this!
Yours in fitness,
Sarah & Larry Young
