A few weeks ago, while I was holiday shopping, I discovered the wonderful world of Willow Park.
A quaint district (with tons of parking), that houses a wide arrangement of shops and services that literally cater to every need you can think of!
There’s a place for fitness, grooming, dry cleaning and even somewhere to get an airbrushed spray tan that’ll help you beat the winter blues!
Heck you can even get a new pair of prescription glasses or sunglasses from Eyeclectic so you can arrive Mariah Carey style this December .
So now, with all my gifts wrapped and under the tree, it was time for me to get myself in fine form for holiday parties & family Christmases.
First stop, my man Dean at Dario’s Barbershop
After a quick clip clip here and a clip clip there I’m no longer looking like a raggamuffin and my mom will proudly admit that I’m her son.
Then it’s off to 9 Round
A 30 minute kickbox fitness class to get me firm & fit in a hurry!
Arms, core, legs, it’s a full body workout that keeps me on time with ‘belled’ fitness sessions that I rotate through.
And the best part of 9 Rounds is that they change their circuit everyday so I am never bored.
After that I head next door to Fitness Equipment of Calgary.
A fitness store that has everything!
I kid you not, I am a step arobics fanatic and I’ve searched for years to find a professional grade platform I could use at home.
Voila! My step dreams have come true for $109.oo!
Next, I was off to complete my Mr.Olympia look by getting the perfect tan; and at California Tan they have the bed of all beds!
The Ergoline Sun Select 48 has it all! Bells and whistles you never knew you needed until you experienced them, now you can’t possibly live without!
Misters, air conditioning, aromatherapy and bulbs that specialize in tanning all your nooks and crannies.
For the next several minutes I was transported to a Las Vegas style beach club where I was the VIP chilling in a private cabana!
Lastly it was time to complete the ‘L’ in the G.T.L.
My dry cleaning from Newtons!
With my fresh pressed blazer I had my final piece to looking fresh and feeling ready to take on dinners, family photos and all the festive activities that the holidays will bring my way!
So if you’re like me – on a time budget – check out the amenities of Willow Park and get everything done in one place.
They’ll make your holiday everything easy!
