This weekend I had the biggest honor of documenting my best friends Heartbeats for Haiti benefit aerobics class at the fabulous Equinox of Roslyn. I was floored to see the amount of people that came to support such and amazing event. The benefit class was packed to capacity and I am sure a lot of that has to do with the intensity, dedication, fun humor, and highly motivational spirit of my friend, Yves Maco. Boy does he have a following of dedicated students/clients. Not only is he well loved by all in the class, but he has a heart big enough to give it right back.
On January 12th, 2010, a 7.0 earthquake devastated Haiti and destroyed most of its capital. Most of us watch the horrific details on the news. For a lot of us, our impulses led us to help through monetary donations. For Yves, he had the same Idea, but on a greater scale. Yves organized the Heartbeats for Haiti benefit class along with Pam Polestino, manager of Equinox who graciously sponsored the event. Thank you to everyone who donated and participated in the fundraiser. Your generosity will go a long way in helping the children of Haiti.
Below are some images of everyone working out in solidarity for the Haitian people.
Waiting in anticipation.
Let the class begin!!!
After the class Yves and I had some time to make these:
