IT'S BAAAAACK! Our annual March Madness challenge at Simply Fit & Fun is here for its 7th year! This challenge (our most popular one of the whole year!) puts our signature Fit & Fun spin on the classic March tournament! Teams will be formed by YOU (don't worry, we will help too!) and all you have to do is sign up, take classes, and get ready to have fun and possibly win some weekly prizes! It is very easy, SO FUN, and a great way to win big and be held accountable to move in March! Keep reading to hear more!

From Sunday, March 1st through Tuesday, March 31st, you and your team need to attend as many classes as possible! This gives each team 4 full weeks and a few extra days to complete this challenge! Each week, prizes will be given out to the team that has collectively taken the most classes OR we will get creative should teams match points! We will be using the Mindbody booking site, along with our infamous stats board at the studio, to track enrollment each week! The team with the most classes attended total by March 31st will receive THE MARCH MADNESS GRAND PRIZE which will be announced on Wednesday, April 1st!

Grand Prize will include:

• A complimentary special edition custom SF&F workout tank made just for YOU and your team!

• Fabulous bragging rights (with kindness and class of course) because your team won!

Steps To Enroll
1. Sign up below to secure your spot to join.
2. Create/gather/join a team!
3. Please select one person to be your "captain" so they can email us with the details of your team members and team name that you create!
4. We encourage teams to exchange numbers or emails so you can stay in touch during the month of March. No one is required to take that extra step, but it is helpful to keep connected! 

I Want To Join, But I Don't Know How To Get On A Team!
*NEW* This year we are holding a few extra spots on every team so new clients can join established teams/groups! This is a great way to meet and welcome new people and help continue to maintain the inclusive and welcoming environment that we strive to sustain all year round! We (Danielle and Stefanie) will handle this aspect to help keep things streamlined and easy for all! 

Please note a form will appear while signing up on our online shop where you can indicate if you need a team! Anyone looking to join a team will be placed on one. The goal is simply to have everyone working as hard as they can to attend classes, have fun, make friends, so it won't matter who you are cheering on! This is a great way to bring our community even closer together!

How Many People Can Be On A Team?
We ask that you stick to a firm max of 12 people per team. **Please note: This does not include extra friends who may need to be added from the note above. Your team may end up having more than 12 people in the end if we add additional clients to your team!** We thank you in advance for honoring this. If your established team has over 12 then we will work to help you create multiple teams or shift around to make it fair for all. Please note this is always subject to change slightly once we get a pulse for enrollment interest. We know this stuff can get "overwhelming," but don't worry and please don't let it stress you! We don't believe in that mean girl, catty style approach so just message us if you need help and we will make sure all teams are fair and fun! The point of this challenge was and continues to be to bring our community together and that is what it will be! XO


VERY Important Things To Know Before Enrolling:
1. Registration does NOT cover the cost of the classes you will be attending for the month of March. This is a separate charge. The cost to join the challenge is $30 per person. This cost covers your participation, weekly prizes, grand prizes, and more! 

2. Right before the challenge begins, we will invite everyone to our closed March Madness Facebook group, which is always so much fun! In there, we will post friendly competition updates and stats to keep you and your teammates motivated and connected! 

3. IMPORTANT! All classes will be worth 1 point only. In previous years, we made certain classes worth more points. We will not be doing that this year to help regulate class size and allow the challenge to be fair for everyone. However, we may pick a class or two each week to be worth extra points for fun and to keep everyone on their toes!

**Please note: attending the Open Gym Hours does NOT count towards March Madness. Group exercise classes only!**

4. Please do not take more than 2 classes a day. We will need to speak to clients if we see you taking 3 or more classes a day! This challenge is meant to be safe and fun. Please do not get burnt out! At the end of the day, this is a friendly competition. We started this challenge back in 2020 to help people hold themselves accountable in a team-spirited kind of way, and we do not want to stray from those origins! 

5. IMPORTANT ! We will continue to drive this home the whole month, but this challenge is not meant to make you feel anxious or overwhelmed. This challenge is meant to be FUN, and to encourage teams to take as many classes as possible without the stress! We want to remind you all that the tone of the challenge should remain light-hearted! Please engage with other teams before and after classes, cheer each other on. We know friendly competition can often bring out some fire in all of us, so we ask that you treat others how you want to be treated during this month of fitness fun! 

Deadline To Sign Up:
Due to the logistics of this challenge, EVERYONE MUST ENROLL AND BE PART OF A TEAM BY Friday, February 27th! This will give everyone enough time before we start to join the Facebook group, receive their team logo image, and get to booking classes!

Fine Print: All class credits, packages, and memberships apply to March Madness classes!
