Bella Boot Camp - Better Body And A Better You
Vita Vie Retreat provides the ultimate health adventure with their highly acclaimed Bella Boot Camp. Prepare your body for summer and beyond with this "high energy, get your butt in shape retreat" as described by Oxygen Magazine's Fat Loss Collector's Issue. The all encompassing program not only provides the workout of a lifetime, but also teaches clients about nutrition, health and how to pamper themselves.
Days begin between 7am and 9am with either an energizing yoga class or cardio challenge on the beach. These intense sessions are followed by a grueling strength and agility session or their signature beach boot camp which entails intense intervals of strength, agility work, foot speed, plyometrics and more. From there the days will lead in a few different directions depending on the course for that particular day. Classes like fit ball, a class dedicated to the core which involves the use of medicine balls, core & balance, stretch fusion, indoor cycling, beach trek, stress reduction, yin stretch, cardio kick boxing, pilates mat, gyrokinesis and more are offered. The day is wrapped up with restorative yoga or a full body stretching session to give tired and achy muscles some relief.
Vita Vie Retreat's success rate is what keeps clients coming back. The average amount of weight lost in one week is 4 pounds and the average amount of inches lost in one week is an impressive 3 inches. Margot Rutigliano, owner of Vita Vie Retreat stresses the importance of providing a learning environment for clients that is interactive but also relaxing. "More importantly, we want to help prepare everyone for their daily lives and give them the tools to insert health and fitness into their hectic schedules. I want our clients to be healthy and take something with them from this experience," says Ms. Rutigliano. Present at each retreat, Margot spends time answering each client's questions and encouraging those to simply do their best. To ensure success, guests leave with the Vita Guide which includes nutrition information, workout logs, food logs, workout tips and much more.
