Holly on the Wellness Scholarship: Adding a Little Joy to Each Day

I was awarded a Wellness Scholarship in early January of 2026. When I initially applied for a scholarship, I had a plan to join a gym, but I later realized that I would much rather split my scholarship to pay for multiple class packs. 

Over the course of the last 8 weeks, I tried the following wellness classes:

• Meditation + Sound Bath

• Yoga + Stretch

• Low Impact HIIT

• Flex Class (Heavy Weights) 

Each class brought joy to my routine and made me excited to get up the next day to try something new. I tried to layer each class so that they would overlap in throughout each week. This way I was able to stick to my routine and meet my goals.

This Wellness Scholarship pushed me out of my comfort zone and allowed me to try 4 new experiences that I have since continued to do. I am so grateful for this opportunity, and I am excited to further explore new fitness classes that add a little bit of joy to each new day.
