Git fit at new local studio, Move 2 Improve
B
By Laurel Robertson
ecause the rest of her life – as an educator, wife, mom, and business owner – is so demanding, Dawn Rudolph tries to “keep it simple” at Dripping Springs’ newest fitness studio, Move 2 Improve Fitness. She requires no contracts, no membership fees, no childcare fees and creates a relaxed, non-competitive atmosphere in the studio. “We’re all moms here,” she explains with a smile. “We understand if you have to come in late, leave early – even leave in the middle of class to pick up a child and then come back to finish!” Fitness that fits family lifestyles is the main focus at Move 2 Improve – along with fun! Evening Zumba classes are packed with participants of all ages, shapes and sizes rocking out to Latin
beats in the dark nightclub-like setting, illuminated mainly by dancing lights from a disco ball. While Zumba classes are the most numerous and popular, Move 2 Improve also offers a full schedule of daytime and evening Pilates, Yoga, Body Fit and Boot Camp classes. After teaching Zumba through local community education classes, Dawn opened her fitness studio last December in a spacious building behind Cowgirls and Lace. Her goal, she says, was to create a local spot for the number of fitness enthusiasts in Dripping Springs who were driving into Austin for workout classes. Her business model includes paying more for her staff than for rent. “I hire the best of the best and pay them well because people come to classes for the instructors,” she believes.
