Thank you, #NexusFamily.

Dear #NexusFamily,

I can’t begin to thank each and every one of you for your continued support during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

On March 15, we temporarily closed our doors. It was an unexpected, scary and difficult decision, but one made with the safety of our staff and members in mind. Through the uncertainty, I never doubted that this incredible community would support us along the way. And you didn’t disappoint.

Thank you to everyone who did the at-home workouts, came and picked up a piece of equipment, donated to other members’ membership costs or contributed what they could while our doors were closed. Thank you to our amazing coaches and staff who worked every day to keep our spirits high through live workouts, mobility and cooking sessions, Instagram filters, emails and more. Meag provided great healthy cooking tips on her Nexus Nutrition Instagram live videos that helped us eat well and try new things at home. Haley helped communicate with all of you and ensured our members were taken care of, even when we were not in the gym. Finally, Ben helped program some challenging at-home workouts and ensured it was all in ZenPlanner for you guys to view. I hope you laughed as much as I did at Matt’s dancing, Jake’s camera work or discovering which Nexus coach you were.  Joking aside, it was your enthusiasm and engagement for the little things that kept us all going. This was truly a team effort and I could not have done it without them and you guys.

Reopening our doors has been exciting, thrilling and a complete blessing. As we work to get back to full capacity and operation, we appreciate your flexibility and understanding. You have gone above and beyond as members with your understanding as we all try to grasp this “new normal” we are facing. I am grateful to come to the gym every day and see you guys working hard to make yourselves better and stronger! It is so encouraging to see you all and see the outpour of support we have received from our #NexusFamily. 

I know that each member at Nexus was affected and continues to be affected differently by these current circumstances. I want you all to know that you all have been in my thoughts since this started mid-March. I am so thankful for every Nexus member and their family. 

Thank you guys for everything and just being awesome. We couldn’t be who we are without you! We’ll keep working to provide you the best possible experience we can both in the gym and at home. In the meantime, keep pressing on. 

Yours, 

Chris Wade
