Things To Do In Ceres

It’s easy to see the imprint of Body & Soul Fitness founder Jade Reyes on his studio’s class curriculum. His specialty in dance aerobics is displayed in exotic-dance and Latin-dance-inspired Zumba classes. And his training in kickboxing informs not only classes in the same discipline, but also body-combat classes, which feature high- and low-impact moves to challenge exercisers of all fitness levels. He also specializes in spinning and knows much about massage therapy and relaxation, which explains why yoga is on the schedule and drinking Mountain Dew and screaming Van Halen lyrics is not.

This Groupon expires on November 31, 2011 and is valid at all five Modesto locations: 1234 McHenry Avenue (open 24 hours), 2700 McHenry Avenue, Floyd Avenue, Pelandale Avenue, and Prescott Road.

As they enter the training circle at Curves, female guests come face-to-face with the smiles of other women. And just as points on a circle share a common distance from the circle's center, workout participants share the experiences of those nearby by trading stations throughout the 30-minute training session. One minute is spent on a piece of strength-training equipment built for feminine frames and designed to work two opposing muscle groups with a single movement. Exercisers then move on to a recovery station, where they run, jog, or dance to maintain heart rates and keep platforms in place during momentary losses of gravity.

The tango—it's classy, seductive, and fun. The enthusiastic instructors at Modesto Tango Argentino give students all the rhythmic tools needed to join in the excitement. They teach the graceful dance during group lessons, allowing all guests to learn with their partner or dance with fellow students while making new friends.

Lucky Fest helps revelers safely usher in America's greenest holiday by gathering 25 custom-built pubs along a single stretch of 11th Street. Each makeshift mead hall has taken on a unique theme for St. Patrick's Day. Guests can visit Grace O'Malley's Fantastic Voyage to enjoy a drink at a 16th-century pirate-themed alehouse built upon a converted clipper, then swing past MacGowan's Karaoke Bar to belt out a favorite tune or deliver a rousing pep talk backed by Pointers Sisters tracks. Funny bones are tickled by visiting comedians from around the country during a drop-in at Patty O'Flynn's Comedy Shop, while the Irish Bar Bar Shop's barber chairs welcome visitors to stop in for a quick trim before they head to The Docks to pose for a souvenir photo with the Sea Maiden of the Celtic Sea.

Safavi Institute's elite and enthusiastic student body sculpts accentuating styles within a 20,000-square-foot cosmetology school partnered with salon rock star Paul Mitchell. Hair makeovers begin with applications of Paul Mitchell's own Awapuhi Keratriplex product, which deeply nourishes strands to leave tresses as smooth and strong as a body builder on a blind date. Then an adept stylist snips and combs locks into a desired 'do, cropping split ends and personalizing a style to account for tastes and tendencies to star in shampoo commercials. Safavi Institute's faculty and staff engineer also give back to charity with fundraising and grassroots outreach.
