Dear December, 

Bring it on. The year is almost over and we are popular New Yorkers. Here come the holiday parties, dinner celebrations, and cocktails every week.

At Bari we thrive on perseverance, endurance, sprinting through the finish line, and December won’t be any different. Sure it would be easy to drop the towel this month and trust 2012 will bring back the discipline, but we refuse to do so.

December at Bari will mean giving it our all and finishing the year on a high note. We’re kicking our challenges up a notch, adding workouts to our schedule and learning more about nutrition and health.

The power of perseverance has taught us a lot in 2011, and it’s time we celebrate it. We’ve seen it yield results and felt it take our Bari practice to the next level. Six week challenges are great, but the real power is in 6 months and beyond. We don’t always love getting up when it’s dark out to hit Bari, but we’ve transformed our bodies with discipline and persistence. Coming back for a night class to drip is exhausting, but we know that extra mile counts more than the first. We indulge, and we enjoy it, but we know we couldn’t do that if we didn’t sweat it out day in and day out.

We’re ready to end the year on a high note. One more month in 2011… let’s sweat it out.
