Suzie Donaldson has been with DFW Adventure Boot Camp in Southlake since April 2007.  She knows the benefits of this type of group training first hand.  The personal fitness goals that each person can achieve, and the camaraderie and support from other women in the class make the workout both challenging and fun.  Suzie has made it her mission to help women experience the benefits DFW Adventure Boot Camp offers.

Like many women today, Suzie leads a busy life and understands how much of a challenge it is to keep fit and healthy.  That is why Adventure Boot Camp is offered at 5:30am (no excuses time!).  You want to look better and even more importantly, feel better.  That is why we do pre and post camp evaluations and goal setting to make sure you are seeing results.  You also want to have fun! That is why there will be a group of women just like you to encourage you and stand by you.  Suzie will be leading the DFW Adventure Boot Camp (women only) at our Colleyville location.

It is time to make a difference in your life. It is your body, the only one you will ever have, take care of it NOW! Take charge of your body and health and join the ADVENTURE today!
