Shape Me Group Fitness Starting Live Webcast Classes Today

Shape Me Group Fitness,  a Roseville exercise dance studio, said today (Tuesday)  it will officially kick-off its live webcast and online fitness classes.

The business' expansion comes after holding an Indiegogo fundraiser in May to help launch its online fitness service in the huge health and wellness market. 

The May fundraiser also marked Shape Me Group Fitness' partnership with Netbriefings, a St. Paul-based webcasting service.  Shape Me Group Fitness,  2819 Hamline Ave., will be using Netbriefings' production facilities to disseminate live and on-demand corporate and personal fitness programs. 

Ritzelda and Gary Anderson, the wife-husband co-owners of Shape Me Group Fitness, said in a press statement their new online service will benefit club members, corporations (including the Source4Women program), online members and other fitness organizations. (Gary Anderson is also the CEO of Netbriefings.)

The dance club's online classes will include:  dance fitness, Latin hip-hop, yoga sculpt, dance sculpt, yoga in the office and other formats. 

“People need to keep up their fitness regimen in order to stay healthy,”  Ritzelda “Ritzy” Anderson, founder and president of Shape Me Group Fitness, said in a statement.  “We were looking for a way to add new benefits to our members to help them reach their goals.”

Since 2011, Shape Me Fitness said it has brought an array of fitness classes to more than 400 members.  

The Andersons have also launched an online crowd funding project to gain capital for expanding their dance studio business.
