Member in the spotlight: Ge Keurentjes.
Ge Keurentjes is a sociable presence in the classes at Black & White Community. Not only does he enjoy chatting with Gerard, Paul and Jeroen, but we always notice that everyone standing near him is chatting along. Despite the conviviality, training of course continues as usual.
Ge Keurentjes is not only active during the sports classes at Black & White Community, but he also participates in the yoga classes. He loves to relax and stretch during yin yoga, where he really comes to rest. It has become an important part of his weekly schedule and helps him balance his body and mind. Ge appreciates the diversity of activities Black & White Community offers, allowing him to be active as well as find moments of relaxation.
Ge has been working out at Black & White Community since the beginning, even still at the old location where it all started about 20 years ago. It was the first gym he started working out at and he never left. In the beginning, he mainly took spin classes, but he has diversified his exercise routine to include power and yoga.
What he particularly appreciates about Black & White Community is the friendly atmosphere. Unlike gyms where people work out mostly individually and there is little social contact, here it is very social and you get to know your fellow athletes by working out together in group classes. His favorite memories are the regular Saturday mornings when he worked out with the regular group, then catching his breath together and catching up over tea and a sandwich. "Black & White Community is a nice combination of sports and socializing, which makes it fun to come."
As advice for (new) members considering joining, he says, "Come try out the combination of sports and socializing, this makes it fun to keep coming."
Christmas market Dec. 7
On Thursday, December 7, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., we are organizing a special Christmas market for you. This evening is all about fun and togetherness, with various stalls where you can buy nice Christmas gifts. Besides the regular classes, we have also planned some extra activities, such as a Cocoa Ceremony with InnerEssence Journey, Yoga Nidra class and a special Xmas Spinning session. These activities are more elaborate and have festive decorations. Register for the classes via the app, register for the cacao ceremony via our webshop. Register in time, places are limited.
We have also set up a great action as a community, to send elderly people in elderly homes in Breda some extra light and love during the holidays. We are going to write Christmas cards for these elderly people, to combat loneliness and give them a warm feeling. We want to collect as many Christmas cards as possible, so everyone is cordially invited to participate. Write a nice message, draw a happy picture or make a nice creation. Everything is welcome. Together we can make a difference, and spread light and love during the holidays. Christmas cards and supplies will be provided by us this evening.
Together we can ensure that this Christmas market is not only enjoyable, but also has a positive impact on others.We hope to see you all on this special evening!
