LEASH YOUR FITNESS EXPANDS CLASS OFFERINGS TO CORONADO
Boot Camp Classes for Humans and Dogs Available
Throughout San Diego County
SAN DIEGO – March 3, 2010 – People with dogs often struggle to find the time to exercise
themselves and their dogs.
However, at the newly expanded Leash Your Fitness (LYF) boot camp classes for humans and
dogs, pet owners can accomplish exercise for both all at one time. The classes, which
are currently taught in Carmel Valley, El Cajon and Mission Bay, are being expanded
starting Feb. 1 to Coronado.
“Pet owners hate looking at their dog’s sad eyes when they leave to go to the gym,” said
Dawn Celapino, president, Leash Your Fitness. “We’ve designed Leash Your Fitness classes
to get in your dog’s walk, your work out, and to mentally stimulate your dog and really
tire him out.”
The boot camp-style classes will now be taught at Tidelands, Coronado on Tuesdays and
Fridays from 9 to 10 a.m.
Other classes are taught at Mission Bay near the Fiesta Island Bridge playground on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6 p.m.; at Markim Pet Resort in Carmel Valley on Sundays at 9
a.m., which has been ongoing since Jan. 2009; Carmel Valley Recreation Center and Torrey
Highlands Park on Tuesday and Thursday at 7 a.m. and 9 a.m., respectively.; and in East
County at Lindo Lakes on Mondays and Thursdays at 9 a.m.
Each one-hour class incorporates cardio, strength, balance, core, agility, and dog
obedience. All classes are taught by certified personal trainers or group exercise
professionals. The instructors are coached by dog training experts to help students
better understand their dog’s behavioral obedience.
“We are the only boot camp class in the county that lets you bring your dog with you,”
said Celapino. “We love people that are new to fitness or exercise novices. In fact,
people that don’t like exercise usually love our classes because their dog takes their
mind off the exercise part.”
Celapino added that dog owners of all fitness levels are encourage to try their first
class out for free. For more information or to register for classes, visit

Leash Your Fitness also does monthly events, like hikes, dog-a yoga, surfing, kayaking
and social events – all for humans and dogs. Dogs of all sizes and obedience are
welcomed to classes and special events. Dogs must have up-to-date shots.
